One of the positions that Roma need to reinforce the most is in midfield. Specifically, the Italians are looking for a guaranteed defensive miedfielder. In this line, 'Il Corriere dello Sport' pointed to Nemanja Matic, Douglas Luiz and Granit Xhaka as the main candidates right now.

Roma could make history next Wednesday if they can win their first ever Conference League title. To do so, they will need to be at their best against a Feyenoord side who have not fighted for the Eredivisie title this season.

However, the Italian club will have to make a number of changes to their squad for the coming season. It has not been a bad season in Serie A, but the goal of fighting for the Champions League never became a reality.

For this reason, several positions have already been targeted for reinforcement. The first of these is defensive midfielder. And according to 'Corriere dello Sport', the Italians have focused on a possible signing in this position in the Premier League.

Specifically, the names that are the most talked about at the moment are Nemanja Matic (Manchester United), Douglas Luiz (Aston Villa) and Granit Xhaka (Arsenal). None of them will be an easy operation, as they are all under contract and enjoy minutes in their respective clubs, but they are real possibilities that the 'Giallorossi' will fight for.
