Nicolo Zaniolo has suggested on Instagram that he will not leave AS Roma this summer amid reported interest from Antonio Conte’s Tottenham Hotspur and Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea.
90min have reported that Tottenham and Chelsea are keen on signing Zaniolo from AS Roma in the summer transfer window.
The report has claimed that the Serie A club are willing to sell the Italy international attacking midfielder if they receive an offer of €50 million (£42.15 million).
London clubs Tottenham and Chelsea are reportedly keen on securing the services of the 23-year-old despite his recent injury.
Zaniolo suffered a shoulder injury during AS Roma’s Serie A match against Cremonese at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
Following the injury, the playmaker took to Instagram to send a strong message.
Zaniolo, who has a dislocated shoulder, has said that he will be back in three weeks’ time for Roma, suggesting that he plans to stay at the club beyond the end of the summer transfer window.
The window closes next week.

Now, if Zaniolo was thinking about leaving Roma for Tottenham or Chelsea, then he would not send a message about returning from injury in three weeks’ time and getting back in action.
