Roma eye Kvernadze as Gasperini's left-wing solution; Frosinone value Georgian at €25m

Roma sporting director Tony D'Amico has confirmed the club is already looking ahead to the January transfer window, with the priority being a new wide attacker to add unpredictability and penetration to the forward line for Gian Piero Gasperini. Speaking to the microphones before the match at the Olimpico, D'Amico outlined the club's needs. The move reflects an analysis of the first part of the season, in which the side has shown a need to find alternative solutions to add more danger in attack and to address dips in intensity in the second halves. The market department's list includes several interesting names. Among the favourites are Gittens of Chelsea, Kvernadze of Frosinone and Endrick of Real Madrid, profiles that match the identikit drawn up by the club's management to strengthen the Roma attacking flank in the coming months. D'Amico said: "We are missing a winger with pace, someone for the counter-attack. We will try to sign him in January, evaluating the opportunities, to give these characteristics to the mister."
