Roma have approached West Ham for Pedro Obiang.
The Spanish midfielder has battled for minutes at the Hammers, but still enjoys a good reputation In Italy.
The 24 year-old is a target for Roma and contact with the Hammers has already been made.
Roma aim to take Obiang on an initial loan in January with the view to a permanent deal.
West Ham aren't expected to stand in the player's way should Roma make the right offer.
