Roma and Galatasaray have made official the transfer of Nicolo Zaniolo. The Italian player signs with the Turkish club for the next four seasons in exchange for 16.5 million euros plus 13 million euros in bonuses.
So, that's the end of the transfer saga. The news was an open secret since the Italian player confirmed at Milan-Linate airport that his next destination was Istanbul: "Yes, we are on our way out. A hug to everyone.
The transfer had already been attempted by Bournemouth a few weeks ago for 30 million euros, a proposal that Nicolò Zaniolo rejected. The offer came, in a way, because the striker forced his way out of his poor relationship with Jose Mourinho.
Moreover, the player's last hours in the Italian capital were not easy. A few days ago he had to call the police in the early hours of the morning after being threatened with death by fans who demanded that he stop wearing the Roma jersey.
