Nicolo Zaniolo risks pricing himself out of staying with AS Roma.

Tottenham, Liverpool and Chelsea have all been handed a boost in their pursuit of Zaniolo following reports the Roma star is demanding a bumper pay rise.

Il Messaggero says Zaniolo and his entourage are pushing for more than the £3million-per-season contract offer Roma are thought to have prepared.

The player's camp believe the Italian starlet is deserving of higher wages to reflect his status as a key figure within Jose Mourinho's squad.

Roma are to offer the midfielder a deal to 2027.

Zaniolo was tipped to complete a switch from Roma to Juventus this summer, but a move never did materialise.

Tottenham were then thought to have led interest in the attacker from a host of Premier League sides, including Chelsea and Liverpool, however the highly-rated winger ended up staying put.
