# Roma readying another move for Angelo Ogbonna

According to [Calcio Mercato](https://www.calciomercatoweb.it/2016/07/28/calciomercato-roma-idea-ogbonna/), Roma are readying a bid to sign Angelo Ogbonna from West Ham.

They are willing to offer a loan deal, with an option to buy at the end of the season. The Serie A giants are hoping that they can convince West Ham to agree to the deal, having been [previously rebuffed](https://readwestham.com/2016/06/10/west-ham-turn-loan-approach-roma-ogbonna/) with a loan offer.

Roma are looking to strengthen their defence this summer and see Ogbonna as the ideal candidate. He already has Serie A experience, having played for Torino and Juventus in the Italian top-flight.

Ogbonna only signed for West Ham last summer, joining from Juventus for €11m. He played 28 Premier League matches for the Hammers last season, producing a number of solid displays at the heart of the defence.

This has attracted the interest of Roma, with the 28-year-old being very high on their wishlist this summer.

It is unknown as to how open West Ham would be to this new offer.
