Roma reportedly identify Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech as a possible replacement for Alisson Becker at the Stadio Olimpico.

Roma have reportedly identified Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech as a possible replacement for Alisson Becker.

The Serie A outfit are on the lookout for a new shot-stopper following Alisson's world-record move to Liverpool last week, while Cech's future at the Emirates Stadium seems uncertain.

New Arsenal boss Unai Emery has already signed Bernd Leno for £22m this summer, while recent reports have suggested that he is also looking to bring in Swiss international goalkeeper Yann Sommer to provide further competition for a place.

The Mirror reports that Roma's sporting director Monchi is interested in taking Cech to the Stadio Olimpico, ending what has been a 14-year stay in the Premier League.

However, Cech has also been linked with a return to former club Chelsea, where he spent 11 years and made almost 500 appearances across all competitions.
