Alfredo Pedullà revealed some background on the negotiations.

According to the renowned journalist, the Englishman never fully convinced the Roman club.

Primarily because of Chelsea’s request, the owners deemed it too risky to invest €25 million in a last-minute move.

Furthermore, his agent posed another obstacle as tension from talks with Sancho (who shares the same agent) affected the rapport between the parties.
