Transfer news: Roma want Everton target Rachid Ghezzal to replace Liverpool-bound Mohamed Salah

Roma are lining up Everton target Rachid Ghezzal as Mohamed Salah closes in on his move to Liverpool.

Salah is expected to rubberstamp a £35m move to Anfield in the coming days after reportedly flying to England for a medical.

The Egyptian's departure will leave a big hole in Roma's team as they look to replace a player who weighed in with double figures for both goals and assists last season.

Lyon winger Ghezzal, who is also a target for Everton, is the man the Italian club have identifed to replace Salah and they are keen to tie up a deal.
