Udinese activates Zaniolo's buy option but contract talks falter

Udinese has activated its option to buy Nicolò Zaniolo from Galatasaray for €5 million. However, personal terms for a new contract remain unresolved, casting doubt on his future with the club. Zaniolo has been searching for consistency after a series of short stints with multiple teams since leaving Roma. Ongoing negotiations between the player and Udinese have not yet yielded an agreement, leading to speculation that Zaniolo may pursue other opportunities if a resolution isn't reached soon.
