Transfer: Arsenal midfielder gets jersey number at new club

Ainsley Maitland-Niles will wear the number 15 jersey at Roma as the England star completes his move to the Italian side.

Maitland-Niles said he hopes to achieve ‘something great’ with Jose Mourinho’s side after joining on loan from Arsenal until the end of the season.

The 24-year-old made only two Premier League appearances for Arsenal this season and had been keen to secure a temporary move with a view to boosting his first-team minutes.

The versatile midfielder will hope to revive his career at the Stadio Olimpico.

The midfielder wants constant football in order to get the chance of making the England squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

Speaking after his unveiling, Maitland-Niles told Roma official website, “I am just delighted to be here and can’t wait to crack on.

“I want to help the team and show what I can do as a player.

“…I hope we can go on to do something great by the end of the season.”
