Why are the Roma fans hating on Zaniolo? Isnt it the club trying to get rid rather than Zaniolo? or do they actually want him gone an dhaving a go at him for wanting to leave? Or is it the AC Milan thing?

His contract is winding down and there were rumors after the last window that he was keen to sign on for the long term. That never ended up happening and he's said he wanted to leave.

Yeah but wasnt that because theyre barely giving him a contract worth discussing... then they wanted him to leav eso he said he wanted to leave - just seems like one of those situations that is engineered to make him the bad guy

Would love to have him for 6 months to see what he could do but can see why the club don’t want a guaranteed permanent move

If he holds power in personally rejecting Bournemouth and Milan doesn't move for him, I wonder if Roma could be forced to accept a Kulu-like deal if we were to offer one. Option unless certain goal/assist conditions are met and if so then becomes obligation?

Would there be any reason for Roma not to accept a loan with option at this point?

I mean, their alternatives are to either have to pay the salary for a player they will barely be able to use, or get a loan fee or the salary paid for the rest of the season.

Think this is kinda what we offered? A loan with option but it had a clause for if we qualified for the CL. I may be wrong however.

We don’t want to commit, which I understand, buts let’s pay a really high loan fee with an option

Then I'm surprised there hasn't been more resurfacing of the links to us from this if Milan in fact left the table too. Something tells me they'd still be sniffing around if the price continues to drop.

Last 48 hours you say? Does line up directly with what WLB said.

Hopefully FP and Levy are giving Roma the cold shoulder and swoop in the final hours to get him for peanuts ? ?
Much more likely they agree to the loan and option we proposed opposed to the loan and obligation they insisted on.

No idea if we will revisit this but it wouldn't surprise me as Roma will be desperate to ship him out.

The fact they are saying they are hoping for a “solution” certainly bodes well for us. I guess it depends if we are still interested. I would assume if we are still interested that we will likely hear something about it tomorrow afternoon.

I think their idea of a solution is him moving to Bournemouth so they get €30m.

I guess the hold up with this one from our end is we need to get 3 foreign players out to add three. It seems like on Moura and Gil could be heading out. Unless I’m missing someone?

I just cant see us going for Zaniolo having just got in Danjuma.
