AS Roma are the latest club to show an interest in signing out-of-favour Chelsea striker Fernando Torres, according to the Sun.
Tottenham Hotspur have also been linked with a move for the Spaniard as he looks to have fallen down to third choice striker at Stamford Bridge with the summer arrivals of Diego Costa and Didier Drogba.
Roma are in the market for new signings upfront despite rumours that a move for Mattia Destro to join Chelsea has been ruled out, with the club losing big names such as Erik Lamela and Dani Osvaldo last summer.
Torres still wants Chelsea to pay the remainder of his £8.5m-a-year contract if he does move on, which may be holding up the deal.
