They report that the Giallorossi are also targeting Monaco's Soungoutou Magassa to replace Kone. Inter Milan have identified Roma's Manu Kone as a surprise target for the last couple weeks of the transfer window.

The Giallorossi still feel that there is a lot of work for them to do in the summer transfer window, with just over two weeks left to go before deadline day. In particular, the capital club want to bolster the attacking options available to Gian Piero Gasperini. There are two targets in particular that Roma are going after. Firstly, there is Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho. The Englishman has also been on the radars of Inter and Juventus this summer. Furthermore, Roma also want to sign Roma winger Leon Bailey. These two players from the Premier League won't come cheap. Therefore, Roma could accept a sale of Kone as a sacrifice to bring these two signings within reach. Furthermore, La Repubblica also note that Roma would aim to sign Monaco midfielder Soungoutou Magassa as a replacement if Kone leaves.

Nottingham Forest make move for Monaco's Soungoutou Magassa
According to a report from Foot Mercato, Nottingham Forest have submitted an offer to sign Soungoutou Magassa (21) from Monaco. The first offer submitted by the Premier League outfit is believed to be in the region of €13m. Forest's first bid for the defensive midfielder has been rejected by Les Monégasques. The Principality club are commanding a fee in the region of €18m plus bonuses for their academy graduate. Magassa is interested in playing for Nottingham due to the opportunity to move to the Premier League and play in European football. Serie A and Bundesliga clubs are also interested in the defensive midfielder. The 21-year-old is currently contracted at the Stade Louis II until 2029. With the Ligue 1 club holding out for a higher fee, it remains to be seen if Nottingham will return with another offer in hopes of prizing Magassa to the City Ground. Personal terms between the Premier League club and player should be easy to reach, given his desire to make the move. GFFN | Liam Wraith
