AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia is keen to tempt Swansea City striker Wilfried Bony to Italy.
Garcia is preparing to see Mattia Destro sold in 2015 and will insist on a direct replacement being signed - with Bony his priority.
Sportitalia says Bony 'fits the ideal profile' of the striker Garcia is seeking and the Ivorian would enhance the Frenchman's playing system.
The striker is in talks with Swansea over a new deal and has insisted he's happy at the Liberty.
However, Roma can offer Bony regular Champions League football and the prospect of playing in their new stadium in the coming years.
