West Ham midfielder linked with Serie A return
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, AS Roma are looking for midfield reinforcement for the winter transfer window and the former U-21 Spain International tops Luciano Spalletti’s wishlist.
Obiang, 24, has 12 appearances with the Hammers in all competitions so far this season and is getting some regular game time under Slaven Bilic this season despite struggling with playing time last term, in his first ever Premier League campaign.
Obiang switched the Serie A with the Premier League in summer 2015 when he complete a € 6 million from Sampdoria.
According to the report, Obiang is not the only January transfer target for the Serie A giants that are also tracking Genoa star Tomas Rincon whilst Daniele De Rossi is set to pen a new deal with the club before January as the Italy International’s contract expires at the end of the current campaign.
