AS Roma are chasing Tottenham defender Vlad Chiriches.
The London Evening Standard says Roma have stepped up their bid to sign Tottenham defender Vlad Chiriches and are set to open talks with the north London club over a loan move.
Spurs are prepared to let the Romania defender, who made just his fifth appearance of the season in the 1-0 win over Partizan Belgrade last night, leave in the new year.
Roma are willing to acquire the 25-year-old on a temporary basis and should he impress, make the switch permanent.
