​Roma won't take up option for Arsenal utility Maitland-Niles

Italian giants Roma won't be signing Ainsley Maitland-Niles from Arsenal in the summer.

The full-back, who can also play in midfield, is on loan at Roma for the second half of this season.

He has featured in six Serie A matches for Jose Mourinho this term, putting in decent displays.

However, Roma Today suggests that Maitland-Niles has not particularly caught the eye of the Roma coaching staff.

He will likely head back to Arsenal in the summer, where he will have to decide on his long-term future.
