Nicolo Zaniolo Signs 5-Year AS Roma Contract Amid Transfer Rumours

Nicolo Zaniolo has put an end to the transfer speculation surrounding him by signing a new five-year contract with AS Roma.

The Giallorossi announced the news on Wednesday. Zaniolo said it was an easy decision to put pen to paper:

The 20-year-old was strongly linked to Tottenham Hotspur and Juventus earlier this summer, per Football.London's Amie Wilson and Phil Spencer. Per Il Tempo (h/t Metro), Manchester United were also interested, but the youngster didn't leave for England before the Premier League's transfer window slammed shut.
