Report: Roma to swoop for Adrien Rabiot, Yevhen Konoplyanka

Serie A giants Roma have decided to make a double swoop for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot and Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk winger Yevhen Konoplyanka in the upcoming transfer window, according to a report.

The Giallorossi are said to be competing with league rivals Juventus for the 19-year-old's signature, but the Daily Star claims that the Eternal City outfit are in pole position to land the French youngster on a £12m deal.

The same source also believes that Liverpool target Konoplyanka is keen on a move to Italy, with Roma eager to move in the next few days to try to convince him to make the switch to Serie A.

The Ukraininan youngster was reportedly close to joining the Anfield outfit last year, but talks were said to have broken down at the final stages.
