Roma are still interested in swooping for West Ham United winger Valon Behrami after missing out on the former Lazio player this summer.

The Italian club were linked with a move for the midfielder throughout the summer but failed to land their man, and president Rosella Sensi has now confirmed that they may make a bid to sign the player at a later date.

The versatile Switzerland international admitted that he wanted to move to the Stadio Olimpico and Sensi maintains that Roma may renew their interest in the 25-year-old in the future.

"Behrami is an important player," he told Centrosuonosport.

"We did want him but unfortunately the deal could not be sealed. We had to keep our balance."

He added: "I don't know whether we will sign him or not, but never say never."
