AS Roma attacking midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo does not want to move to Newcastle United, according to a report in Milan News.

The report has claimed that AC Milan and Juventus have already made approaches to sign Zaniolo from AS Roma in the summer transfer window.

There is interest from Newcastle as well in the 22-year-old attacking midfielder, according to the report, which has added that the Italy international does not want to move to the Magpies.

Nicolo Zaniolo transfer blow for Newcastle United

In our opinion, Nicolo Zaniolo’s stance regarding Newcastle United is a blow for the Magpies.

The 22-year-old is one of the better young attacking players in Europe, and signing him this summer would be a big statement of intent from Newcastle.

The Italy international is a regular for Roma, and given that he is only 22, we can safely say that he will improve.

Zaniolo made 23 starts and five substitute appearances in Serie A for Roma this past season.

The attacking midfielder scored two goals and gave two assists in those games.

Zaniolo also scored four goals in four Conference League matches for Roma this past campaign.
