If all roads lead to Rome, it seems that for Nicolò Zaniolo, it’s the opposite. For some time now, headwinds have been building up against the attacking midfielder. The club and the supporters are tired of him, of his little whims, to the point of no longer wanting to see him play for Roma. He is not called up for the meeting in La Spezia on Sunday. Yet he is one of the major players of recent seasons, when his body leaves him alone. Today, the tifosi are turning away from the sole scorer of the last Conference League final against Feyenoord, to look only at the club’s new star, a certain Paulo Dybala.
Once adored by the Stadio Olimpico, Zaniolo is the subject of jeers this time. During the reception of Genoa in the Italian Cup, he was even booed by part of the publicforcing José Mourinho to come to his rescue. “A player who gives his best always has my affection” assured the Portuguese, accusing in passing, without naming him, a certain Vincent Candela. “I was sorry to hear boos for Zaniolo, but when there is a person who receives money from the club and openly criticizes a player, he opens the door (to boos). People follow those who have a history with this club.
The management did not want to extend it
The 98 world champion, a true Roman legend, had had harsh words a few days before against the Italian international but he is not the only one who is tired of being frustrated. The main interested party is himself annoyed to see his physique upset his talent. Facing Bologna in early January in Serie A, it was on a knee glitch that he had to give up his place. More fear than harm in the end, but the seesaw is never far away. After two cruciate ligament ruptures in 2020, the 23-year-old has already missed 7 games this season, notably due to a shoulder injury.

And then his performances regularly disappoint. Since the start of the season, the former Interiste has struggled to string together two good matches, as evidenced by the statistics at half mast (17 matches in all competitions, two goals and three assists). The management begins to think that it is probably time to end this relationship before it becomes too toxic. And we know to what extent a love story can become as intense as it is all-consuming at La Louve. She no doubt felt it coming last summer when she refused to extend her contract, which runs until 2024.
Offered to PSG
Announced on departure every six months, this transfer window could be the right one. According to Sky Sports and all of the Italian media, Roma put its number 22 on the transfer list, even fixing its selling price: between 30 and 40 M€. There is still time to take advantage of its favorable contractual situation and its still high rating on the market. Tottenham and West Ham discuss with his agent, when Borussia Dortmund are more withdrawn. According to our information, he was even offered to PSG. Proof that the Wolf wants to get rid of it as soon as possible, she would accept a departure on loan with an obligation to buy. “2023 will be my year, the turning point in my career” promised Nicolò Zaniolo to his relatives in the Corriere dello Sport. He probably hadn’t imagined it that way.
