Roma join race to sign Manchester City's Micah Richards?

Roma are reportedly poised to join the race to sign Manchester City defender Micah Richards.

The England international has been linked with a move away from the Etihad Stadium this summer, with Inter Milan also interested in his services.

However, Roma hope to beat their Serie A rivals to landing the 25-year-old and are prepared to make a bid in the region of £12m, reports The People.

Richards is seeking regular first-team football and due to a series of injuries made just seven appearances for the Citizens last season.
