Neil El Aynaoui, who arrived at Roma last year from Lens for around €23 million, hasn’t found a place in Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad.

Despite expectations, the Moroccan midfielder has only started eight games this season, a performance he considers insufficient and which would push him to leave the capital in June.

Furthermore, his performances have never been particularly impressive, further fueling his discontent.

El Aynaoui’s contract with Roma expires in 2030, but his lack of consistency seems to have convinced him to consider leaving as early as the next summer transfer window.

Sources close to the player’s father confirm his unease with the situation.

As reported by AfricaFoot.com, despite Roma’s investment in the 2001-born midfielder, the midfielder may decide to seek a new destination to relaunch his career.
