Roma reportedly make moves for Liverpool's Dossena

The agent of Liverpool defender Andrea Dossena claims that Roma and Napoli will make a move during the January transfer window for the Italian international. "Roma have made an initial approach," representative Roberto La Florio told Romanews.eu.

"They are clearly a great team and Rome is a wonderful city. I am also aware that Napoli are interested in the lad. So, we'll see what happens."

The 28-year-old full back is said to be keen on a return to his homeland to boost his chances of making Marcello Lippi's Italy squad for next summer's World Cup finals.

"Andrea is getting little space at Liverpool and would like to go back to Italy to play more regularly," explained the agent.

"He wants to be part of Lippi's 23-man party for the tournament in South Africa. We are evaluating the possibility of continuing with the English side.

"It will depend on the Reds too. We have to understand whether they want to loan him out or plan to sell him. In that case, we should assess his transfer fee."
