AS Roma are closing on a deal for Liverpool fullback Glen Johnson. The Mail on Sunday says Roma are growing confident of wrapping up the Bosman signing of Johnson in January.
The Liverpool defender is no closer to agreeing terms on a new contract at Anfield and his deal runs out in the summer.
Roma have not been overly impressed with Ashley Cole since his arrival from Chelsea but believe Johnson has more to offer at 30.
