Shakhtar Donetsk’s Luiz Adriano and Porto’s Jackson Martinez have been linked with Roma in case of the potential sale of striker Mattia Destro.

Sporting director Walter Sabatini is reportedly seeking a replacement should the Italian depart the Olimpico, with a move to the Premier League well on the cards.

According to Il Messaggero, the Lupi director prefers Martinez and would launch a bid for the Colombia international if they decide to accept a substantial offer for the former Genoa and Siena forward.

Destro has struck 19 goals in 41 Serie A appearances for the capital outfit, and is strongly linked with a move to London, with either Chelsea or Tottenham Hotspur speculated as a potential destination.
