Roma are reportedly set to make a ‘sensational’ Nicolo Zaniolo decision and West Ham United must act now.

According to a report from Area Napoli, Roma boss Jose Mourinho is ready to take a tough stance on Zaniolo and is refusing to consider him for upcoming games.

It is also suggested that Roma are considering taking disciplinary measures against the 23-year-old for refusing to leave the club. The whole situation just sounds utterly baffling.

West Ham must act now and sign the Italy international.

David Moyes has been heavily linked with a move to bring Zaniolo to the London Stadium over the past week or so. (Corriere dello Sport).

It was suggested that the Hammers have made a loan offer for the Italian with an obligation to buy that includes a clause that we get at least 30 points between August and December in the 2023/24 season.

We can’t mess around now though. David Sullivan needs to make a proper bid for Zaniolo before another club wins the race for his signature…

Roma take firm stance on Nicolo Zaniolo

Jose Mourinho is trying his best to get the 23-year-old out of the club according to Area Napoli.

So what on earth are the Hammers waiting for. He would be an exceptional addition for us and take the quality of our football to a whole new level entirely.

Football Italia describe the Roma star as a wonderful talent. And they’re spot on – he really is special.

Zaniolo is a world-class player in the making. Italy boss Roberto Mancini once described the 23-year-old as an ‘extraordinary’ player (Goal).

He is exactly what we need at West Ham. It’s just such a shame that we didn’t move quicker to sign him.

Zaniolo is big and powerful and standing at 6ft 3in tall, he seems to be perfectly built for the Premier League.

The Roma attacker can play in a variety of positions including the number 10 role and on both wings, and he has a proven track record of producing the goods at the very highest level for a sustained period of time.

And with Roma trying to force Zaniolo out, West Ham absolutely have to act now, no excuses.
