Roma [/b]are interested in [b]Tottenham centre-back Toby Alderweireld, according to Sky in Italy.

The Serie A club want to sign two new defenders this summer – the Atalanta player Gianluca Mancini and one of either Alderweireld or Real Betis’s Marc Bartra.

Spurs are yet to receive a formal offer for the Belgium international, who is available for £25m until the expiry of a clause in his contract later this month.

His team-mates expect him to be on the pre-season trip to Asia, which begins with a clash against Juventus in Singapore on July 21
