More Yossi exit reports

Serie A giants Roma are understood to be lining up a move for Liverpool midfielder Yossi Benayoun.

The Israel playmaker's future on Merseyside has been the subject of constant speculation throughout the summer with a number of clubs reportedly showing interest in him.

Benayoun's former employers West Ham United and Manchester City are thought to be tracking the talented wideman and now Roma have thrown their hat into the ring.

Roma are on the hunt for an attack-minded midfielder after star player Amantino Mancini moved to Inter Milan earlier in the summer and boss Luciano Spalletti is thought to be an admirer of Benayoun.

Liverpool could be willing to sell Benayoun as they look to gather the funds to acquire long-term target Gareth Barry from Aston Villa.
