Atletico Madrid is allegedly interested in Roma defender Roger Ibanez.

According to Sportmediaset, the Spanish giants are looking for defensive reinforcements this summer.

They have recently focused on Ibanez, who is rumoured to be one of the favourites to leave Roma in the summer.

After earning his first call-ups with Brazil’s national team, the capital club will strive to increase their demands for the young centre-back as much as possible.

For the time being, Roma will not consider any bid that is less than €30 million.
