Roma have reportedly emerged as favourites to sign Nice forward Mario Balotelli.
Earlier this week, agent Mino Raiola suggested that Balotelli was considering a return to the Premier League after impressing during his two-season spell in Ligue 1.
However, according to Leggo, Roma are currently leading the race for the 27-year-old's signature during the summer transfer window.
A number of clubs - including Inter Milan and Napoli - are said to be in the running for the Italian international, whose contract expires at the end of the campaign.
Balotelli has scored a total of 38 goals in 58 appearances for Nice, which includes 21 during the current campaign.
