Roma may turn to Fontana
Thursday 18 December, 2008

Roma may look to veteran Palermo goalkeeper Alberto Fontana to play understudy to Alexander Doni.

The Lupi are currently using untested Brazilian Arthur as their second choice, but they don't seem to have much faith in the ex-Siena man.

Reports in French newspaper L'Equipe state that the Giallorossi had been looking to land talented Le Mans custodian Yoann Pelé, but that a deal is impossible in January.

With Pelé out of the question, the Giallorossi may see Fontana as a cheap and reliable alternative.

The 41-year-old former Inter man was first choice at the Stadio Renzo Barbera until the arrival of Azzurri reserve Marco Amelia last summer.

Fontana would probably accept the move that would allow him to represent one more prestigious club before he hangs up his gloves.
