Roma Would Be The Maximum - Di Michele

fount : goal.com



One of Roma's problems in past seasons as they challenged Inter for the Scudetto was the lack of a strong center forward. Ahead of the new season, in fact, it's a striker the Giallorossi are looking for to bolster their squad.

There was allegedly an interest for Real Madrid's Julio Baptista, but the player's agent denied that there has been any contact.

Another striker who has been frequently linked with a move to Roma over the years is David Di Michele, currently at Torino. The former Reggina, Udinese and Palermo player gave an interview to Rome newspaper 'Il Romanista' in which he admitted he was flattered by the possibility of an interest from Roma.

"I've read a lot of stories on the papers," he said. "Let's hope these rumours will become more concrete in the near future. But I must admit Roma would be the maximum for me."

Before last season with Torino, the striker had regularly managed to score more than 10 goals in the top flight, although he is known as a bit of a hot-head. He has also made six appearences with the national team under Marcello Lippi.
