Leonardo Spinazzola still hasn’t given up on his hopes to extend the contract that binds him with Roma.

The Italian fullback will soon become a free agent on June 30th and awaits a call from Roma.

As reported in today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport, the player has been left disappointed by the capital club’s lack of initiative to pursue talks over a new deal.

In recent weeks, Spinazzola inquired about the possibility of staying at least for another year.

The player was bitter about his time at the club seemed to have reach its end: his last appearance was interrupted by an injury in a key match against Bayer Leverkusen in the second leg of the Europa League semifinal.

As things stand, Roma are unlikely to fulfill Spinazzola’s hopes – the Friedkins remain unconvinced by the player’s fitness levels.

As a result, the ex-Juve man is bound to become a free agent and in search of a new team to join after spending the last five years in the Italian capital.
