AS Roma boss Jose Mourinho has identified a Premier League defender as a transfer target.

The Portuguese legend has been enjoying his second stint in Serie A over the past few years.

Per Tuttomercatoweb, Mourinho is set to raid the Premier League for Arsenal defender Jakub Kiwior.

The 23-year-old signed for Arsenal less than a year ago, but has barely featured.

The left-sided centre half is highly rated, but has been unable to dislodge Gabriel from the starting line-up.

Mourinho will be hoping to secure Kiwior on an initial loan deal, given Roma's financial situation.
