AS Roma offers its first recruit of the summer, and it comes from League 1. Midfielder Moroccan and a real pillar of Sang et Or during last season, Neil El Aynaoui (24 years old), had caught the eye of the Roman formation, which was looking for a profile to compensate for the departure of Leandro Park. And despite the intentions of blood and gold to want to extend his lease in the North, which ends in June 2027, the player trained at AS Nancy-Lorraine was seduced by Serie A.
The club coached by Gian Piero Gasperini had passed concretely to the offensive for a few days. After first offer of the order of € 20 million + € 1 million in bonuses, rejected by RC Lens, the Louve club came to the assault this Thursday afternoon by making a second offer, still refused. Finally, a total agreement was reached with the RC Lens against an amount of € 23.5 million + € 1.5 million in bonuses, with a percentage on a future capital gain. The Moroccan had already heard with the Giallorossi for a five -season contract.

And the operation was formalized via the press release from the Lensois club which wished a good start to its now old element: “Neil El Aynaoui joined AS Roma. After two seasons of a mutual attachment with the Lensois public, the community joins the legendary Italian club as part of a transfer. The club thanks Neil and wishes him the best for the future.»»
A new step for the 24 -year -old, who will therefore discover the Italian championship. After the departures of Kevin Danse (Tottenham), óscar Cortés (Rangers) and Facundo Medina (OM), the RC Lens thus loses a new strong element of its workforce and will have to strengthen. As a reminder, the goalkeeper's file was settled with the arrival of Robin Risser and the defensive recruitments of Matthieu Udol, then Samson Baidoo.
