Arsenal, Chelsea target Destro considers Roma departure

Mattia Destro has sparked Premier League interest after openly admitting he's considering his AS Roma future.

Arsenal and Chelsea could both do with bolstering their striking options, and Destro has hinted he may not be adverse to their interest.

The Premier League duo are known to have pursued Destro throughout the summer, however Roma chiefs succeeded in retaining their youngsters services, says the Daily Express.

He said: "I can only do my talking on the pitch. Some people speak with their voice, I speak on the field.

"I try to score goals when I have the opportunity. [Should I be given] more opportunities by the coach? That's up to the coach.

"I think with my head, I make decisions with my head. So we'll see."
