Spanish midfielder Pedro Obiang had a slow start to season at West Ham, but poor results meant he was brought back into the starting XI by Slaven Bilic.
AS Roma are reportedly keen on signing a midfielder during the January transfer window, and Obiang is believed to be a target, reports Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport on Saturday.
Gazzetta say Obiang is held in high regard at the Serie A club, and could return to Italy in January, despite regaining his place in the West Ham starting XI.
It’s not stated if it’s believed Obiang would be interested in returning to Italy, and a lot would be dependent on how things turn out between now and January. However, this story has been growing over the past couple of days in Italy and Roma may well test the water.
