Settlement of accounts at AS Roma

Transferred this winter from AS Roma to Galatasaray, Nicolo Zaniolo said all the bad things he thought of his former teammates.

It was in an already detestable atmosphere that Nicolo Zaniolo left AS Roma to join Galatasaray in the final hours of the last winter transfer window. In conflict with his coach, José Mourinho, the Italian attacking midfielder wanted more playing time and therefore chose to join Turkey for it. If he had remained silent on the subject, he finally emptied his bag in a truth interview. And he spares no one.

In the columns of The Gazzetta dello SportNicolo Zaniolo therefore explained this Sunday why he left, referring in particular to the “ broken promises » which were made to him, ensuring that AS Roma had only considered him as « a star “with high potential for” plus-value“. Hoping to sign a more lucrative contract that will never happen, Zaniolo therefore chose to leave in a hurry.

Without resentment?

But they didn’t even come to say goodbye to me. “What cause him a real sadness. But perhaps no hard feelings, he assures us that if he finds some of his Italian partners from Roma in the Italian national team, “ there will be no problem« .
