Roma launching bid for Spurs defender Chiriches

AS Roma are keen on Tottenham defender Vlad Chiriches.

The Daily Mail says the 24-year-old pulled out of the club's tour of the USA and has been on the list of targets for Roma coach Rudi Garcia for more than a year.

He has struggled to settle in England and is keen on Italy.

Chiriches arrived at White Hart Lane from Steaua Bucharest last summer in a deal worth £7.5 million but made only 17 league appearances during an interrupted debut season in the Premier League.

The Romanian defender is likely to be interested in reviving his career in Serie A .
