AS Roma are reportedly planning a January move for Nottingham Forest defender Ola Aina as they look to strengthen their full-back options.
The Italian club is keen to bolster its defense, and Aina, who is well-versed in Serie A football from his time at Torino, has emerged as a prime target.
Aina, a Nigerian international, is currently in the final year of his contract with Nottingham Forest, which expires next summer.
The Premier League club is eager to extend his deal, but interest from Roma could complicate negotiations.
Forest is keen to keep the versatile 28-year-old, who has been a key player since joining the club.Roma is expected to offer between €12 million and €15 million to secure Aina’s signature in the January transfer window.
Aina made 113 appearances for Torino during his stint in Italy, contributing two goals and seven assists, showcasing his ability to contribute both defensively and offensively.
With his contract nearing its end, the Italian giants see an opportunity to bring him back to Serie A, where his experience and skills could add significant value to their squad.
