The Romans are looking for an alternative for their once-main-striker

Edin Dzeko's disagreements with coach Paulo Fonseca have been a hot topic in Rome in recent days, but also the reason why the experienced striker is increasingly being brought into contact with numerous clubs across Europe.

Striker's lack of discipline was followed by problems due to the defeat against Lazio (3:0) and elimination from the Italian Cup by Spezia, and the consequence of the disciplinary measures of the club from the Italian capital is that Dzeko ended up on the transfer list and trained separately from his teammates.

Numerous clubs across Europe have shown interest in the Bosnian. He was on the wish list of West Ham and Everton, he was offered to Man City and Chelsea, he drew attention across Italy, where Inter and Juventus had their eye on him even earlier... However, his status being resolved is still a long way off, and one of the options is going to Paris, writes CalcoMercato.

According to the Italian media, Roma is interested in doing a kind of trade with Paris Saint-Germain, in which Dzeko would leave the Italian capital for six months, while Mauro Icardi would go in the opposite direction for the same period of time. The fact that the Argentine did not get the desired minutes at Le Parc des Princes and that he would have the opportunity to gain continuity in the ranks of Roma works in favor of the Italian club.

However, it is not very realistic that the French giant will accept the idea of ​​a six-month exchange of attackers, considering the significant difference in age, but also the fact that Icardi hopes to gain more trust with Pochettino than with Tuchel. Another possibility is a swap between Roma and inter where Alexis Sanchez could move from Milan to the capital in exchange for the Bosnian striker.

An aggravating circumstance is a race against time, considering that the transfer window is close to its end.
