SHOCKING BOMBSHELL: Star Midfielder Just Gave Newcastle the GREEN LIGHT – “I’m Coming to DOMINATE St James’ Park for FREE!!” He’s rejected EVERYONE else… insiders say he’s already dreaming of lifting trophies in black & white – This free-agent steal could be the signing of the DECADE! You won’t believe who’s about to set Newcastle on
West Ham Previously Tracked Pellegrini, But Newcastle Now Eye Free Transfer Move
For much of the season, it looked as though the midfielder’s chapter in Rome was drawing to a close.
Gian Piero Gasperini initially appeared unconvinced about his role in the squad, casting doubt over his future. But the 29-year-old has managed to flip the script.
Handed his first start of the campaign against fierce rivals Lazio, he seized the moment by finding the back of the net.
That performance proved to be a turning point. Since then, he has re-established himself as a regular in the side, making 16 Serie A appearances and scoring three goals in total.
Even with this resurgence, a contract renewal has yet to be agreed.
His current deal runs out at the end of June, and uncertainty continues to surround his next move, as reported by Calciomercato IT.
Newcastle United are closely monitoring Lorenzo Pellegrini’s situation ahead of the summer transfer window, when he is set to become a free agent.
While interest from clubs in Italy cannot be ruled out, a switch to the Premier League appears increasingly plausible.
It is understood that Pellegrini would welcome the opportunity to join Newcastle.
He believes Eddie Howe’s midfield structure would suit his qualities, offering him the tactical balance needed to perform at his best.
Though he may not possess quite the same physical edge as in previous years, the Italian international still retains impressive technical skill and intelligence on the ball.
He has often featured on the left side for Italy, but his most natural position remains as a dynamic number eight.
After nine years in his current spell with Roma — and earlier development in the club’s academy before a stint at Sassuolo — there is a growing sense that the time has come for a new challenge.
Once likened to Francesco Totti, injuries and inconsistency stalled his rise. Now, a fresh start at Newcastle could be on the horizon.
