WEST HAM midfielder Valon Behrami is the subject of strong interest from Italian side Roma, say reports.

The Daily Mail claim Roma are interested in bringing the Switzerland international to Italy, with a potential swap deal involving goalkeeper Doni or striker Stefano Okaka on the cards.

Hammers co-owner David Sullivan has previously stated that every member of last season's squad is available for transfer – except Scott Parker – and the club may be willing to listen to offers for Behrami.

Roma are understood to prefer an initial loan deal with the option to make the move permanent next summer, however a swap deal has also been mooted.

Behrami had become a regular fixture in the West Ham line-up under Gianfranco Zola last season, but it is unclear how he will be used under new boss Avram Grant, having only just returned to pre-season training following an extended break after his World Cup exertions with Switzerland.
