Niles signed for Roma on loan in January after struggling for game time under Mikel Arteta at Arsenal. Maitland-Niles posted on his Instagram account, alongside a picture of him holding the Europa Conference League trophy: ‘Great way to end the season.
Roma boss Jose Mourinho said he will ‘miss’ the 24-year-old as the two clubs will not negotiate a deal and Maitland-Niles will return to north London.
“We’re gonna miss you”, José Mourinho commented about AMN leaving the club.
Maitland-Niles waves goodbye
“Thank you to the Roma fans, players and staff for believing in me as one of their own for the short period of time spent at the club.”
“What [an] experience and to be a part of history with the club.”
