Nicolo Zaniolo does not fancy a move to Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur or Eddie Howe’s Newcastle United, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport (print edition, page 10, June 13, 2022).
The Italian publication has claimed that Tottenham and Newcastle are interested in signing Zaniolo from AS Roma in the summer transfer window.

However, the Italy international playmaker does not fancy a move to Newcastle or Tottenham and prefers to stay in Italy, according to the report.
AC Milan and Juventus are interested in the 22-year-old attacking midfielder, and Roma are willing to sell him for €50 million (£43 million), according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.
Could Tottenham or Newcastle sign Nicolo Zaniolo?
In our view, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United should not give up on the signing of Nicolo Zaniolo from AS Roma just yet.
Yes, the attacking may not fancy a move to the Premier League now, but things could change.
If Tottenham and Newcastle pay €50 million (£43 million) for the youngster, who can also play as a forward, then Roma will sell him.
Zaniolo made 23 starts and five substitute appearances in Serie A for Roma this past season.
The Italian star scored two goals and gave two assists in those matches.
