Roma eye Fekir if Zaniolo quits

By Football Italia staff

Roma have asked after Olympique Lyonnais creative midfielder Nabil Fekir if they sell Nicolò Zaniolo to Juventus, it’s reported.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Giallorossi are preparing for the potential of life after Zaniolo, who would command at least €60m with a sale.

The first name on the list of potential replacements would be Fekir, who turns 26 later this month and has roughly the same price-tag.

He spent practically his entire career in the Lyon jersey, but his contract is due to expire in June 2020 and Arsenal are also interested.

Zaniolo’s future is also in doubt, because it’s widely reported contract talks have stalled.
