It’s a good club for him to try and revive his career.” Dele’s Como debut was cut short after 10 minutes when he was sent off…
Tammy Abraham seemed destined to fall out of favor after Milan signed Santiago Gimenez, but he has instead outperformed the newcomer in the last couple of months. The Rossoneri are more seriously considering keeping him past his loan spell, Mediaset informs. Conversely, Roma would like to retain Alexis Saelemaekers, who has had a very solid season.
