The Italian side want to bring in a player to replace the ageing Morgan De Sanctis between the sticks, with the 38-year-old unlikely to be able to continue as number one for much longer.
Cech’s potential availability has alerted a number of clubs since he lost his place to Thibaut Courtois at the start of this season, with Arsenal also emerging as surprise suitors this week.
However, the Blues would surely rather sell this quality backup player abroad, which could put Roma in a strong position to land him now.
