Matija Nastasic wanted by Roma?

Roma are reportedly interested in signing Manchester City defender Matija Nastasic.

The 21-year-old enjoyed an impressive debut season for the Blues after arriving from Fiorentina in 2012.

However, he struggled with a knee injury last season and made just 13 appearances in the Premier League.

According to the Daily Mail, Roma are keen on signing a replacement for Mehdi Benatia, should the Moroccan international leave the club.

It is believed that Nastasic would cost the Giallorossi £15m, but his former club Fiorentina are also said to be tracking him.
