Arsenal's defender is tied to the club through 2029, making an immediate transfer unlikely.

Overview

  • Calafiori said he wants to rejoin Roma "sooner or later" in comments made on the SuperNova podcast and relayed in Italian media.
  • He described how his Roma stint faded after an encouraging start under José Mourinho and the 6-1 defeat to Bodø/Glimt, followed by a sparse loan at Genoa.
  • He detailed a move to Basel for a season before reviving his trajectory at Bologna, which set up his Premier League switch.
  • He has featured regularly for Arsenal this season despite a winter muscular injury, offering versatility across the defensive line under Mikel Arteta.
