President James Pallotta says 'Roma are already very good', but he admits 'we have reinforce the defence'.

The Giallorossi are seen by some as being out of the Scudetto race entirely, after their direct rivals Juventus stole their star player Miralem Pjanic.

Pallotta, however, is having none of it, and he believes his team is still highly competitive.

The Giallorossi are seen by some as being out of the Scudetto race entirely, after their direct rivals Juventus stole their star player Miralem Pjanic.

Pallotta, however, is having none of it, and he believes his team is still highly competitive.

“We're working to bring in new players, although we already have a very good squad and an excellent staff,” he told Il Messaggero. “We were unbeaten in the last 17 games of the past season.

“We must certainly reinforce the defence, but we scored many goals last year. [Diego] Perotti sometimes plays as a false nine and we have excellent youngsters like [Ezequiel] Ponce and [Umar] Sadiq, who might be ready.

“[Kevin] Strootman is back in our midfield and we signed Gerson. I'll say this again, it's already a strong team.”
