AS Roma are chasing Barcelona midfielder Denis Suarez.

Corriere dello Sport says incoming sports director Monchi wants to make the young Spaniard his first signing at Roma.

The Sevilla sports chief is a big fan of Denis and convinced he will thrive if granted regular first team football.

The pair worked together when Suarez had a year on-loan with Sevilla in 2014.

Barca could be willing to sell as the board prepares for a major overhaul of their squad this summer.
