Roma and Inter have been working on a solution to the Spinazzola-Politano swap deal, but the sides have not figured out how to unblock the transfer. Inter requested a forced option to buy tied to reaching 15 appearances, and Roma tried to move closer to agreement, looking for compromises on some of the details. Although on Thursday the deal seemed close, the transfer is now completely blocked. There is a tense feeling around the clubs, and both players are set to return back to their respective clubs after being ready to move to their new cities. The odds of a deal have been severely reduced at the moment, and if it is offiically called off, there will be sure to be accusations and arguments lobbed by both clubs.
