Italian newspapers suggest that the capital club have been monitoring the progress of the Argentine international, who has been showing the form that led to his transfer from Racing Club in 2005 after he initially struggled to cope with the Portuguese game.
The 25-year-old is the current leader of the BWINLIGA in the goal-scoring stakes, having netted 19 goals in 22 appearances for the Dragons this season.
With Real Madrid reportedly interested in Roma's Montenegrin striker Mirko Vucinic, López seems to be high on the Italian club's replacement shortlist for the front area of the team.
AS Roma are also rumoured to be interested in signing Porto midfielders Ricardo Quaresma and Lucho González, but the Portuguese club seem keen on keeping all of these three figures, who are under a contract until 2011.
