Former Portugal international and Liverpool star Luis Abel Xavier is currently on trial at Serie A giants AS Roma.
The 32 year old will undergo a ten day trial period, after which Delneri will decide whether to sign him or not.
Abel Xavier was released by Bundesliga side Hannover 96 last summer, and has not joined a club since.
It appears Roma have selected Xavier as a replacement for Philippe Mexes, in case the young and blond defender gets suspended by TAS as a result of irregularities in his transfer from Auxerre to the Giallorossi.
Also we should have maybe kept hold of Jari for a few more seasons he was a good little play maker for us.
Hansa Rostock have announced the signing of Finland international forward Jari Litmanen.
The 33-year-old has moved on a free transfer from FC Lahti in his homeland and has signed an 18-month deal with the Bundesliga strugglers.
"It's a great challenge for me to help Hansa in the relegation race," the frontman said on the club's official website, www.hansa-rostock.de.
"And the Bundesliga is a whole new experience."
Litmanen came to the fore with Ajax, winning the 1995 Champions League while at the Dutch giants, before moving to Barcelona in 1999.
Injuries meant that the playmaker failed to secure a first-team spot at the Nou Camp and he signed for Liverpool in 2001.
After helping the English club to a cup treble that summer, he found himself as a bit-part player under boss Gerard Houllier, eventually returning to Ajax in 2002 and then on to Lahti last year.
He holds Finland's goalscoring record with 24 and is just eight caps away from setting a new national appearance record of 101.
