AS Roma have joined the battle for Tottenham defender Japhet Tanganga.

Tanganga is in talks with AC Milan over a loan switch to Serie A.

However, the Rossonero are now being challenged by AS Roma, says Il Tempo.

Roma are keen on signing Tanganga on-loan with a permanent option for the new season.

A move to the Giallorossi would mean a reunion for Tanganga and his former Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho.
