Roma coach Claudio Ranieri has confirmed he wants to buy a new striker in January.

The Giallorossi has been linked with the likes of Bayern Munich centre-forward Luca Toni and Tottenham's Roman Pavlyuchenko ahead of the January market.

Ranieri said: "The striker we want is not among those who you journalists have named, but I will not tell you what nationality he is, otherwise you could find him."
