AS Roma: Neil El Aynaoui passes medical with flying colors

It's official! At AS Roma, Neil El Aynaoui's signing is just moments away from being announced.

On Friday, AS Roma completed the arrival of Neil El Aynaoui. The Moroccan midfielder is leaving RC Lens, earning the French club a hefty €25 million. This is a major transfer for RCL, and the player was expected in Rome on Saturday evening to undergo his medical and sign a five-year deal.

There was some suspense, as the 24-year-old midfielder saw his transfer to Monaco collapse last summer due to a failed medical. But this time, there's nothing to worry about. According to Foot Mercato, the player has successfully passed his medical. He is now set to sign his contract, and the official announcement should come any moment now.
