AS Roma have returned to the negotiating table for Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren.

The two clubs have settled on terms for the Croatia international, but the player's demands turned Roma off last week.

But Corriere dello Sport says Roma are trying again this week after talks for Juventus defender Daniele Rugani stalled.

Lovren, along with a huge signing-on bonus, is also seeking playing guarantees and a long-term four-year contract.

However, the player's agent has assured Roma chief Gianluca Petrachi they're now prepared to compromise.
