While the allure of Rome remains incredibly strong, Calafiori is currently focused on navigating a highly competitive environment at Arsenal. With the Gunners battling Manchester City for the Premier League title, the Italian has found himself competing closely with the likes of Piero Hincapie for a starting spot in Arteta's backline. Despite the ongoing challenges of adapting to English football and dealing with various fitness setbacks, the defender maintains a positive outlook.
He acknowledges that the opportunity to play in England was simply too significant to turn down, even if his heart remains deeply rooted in Italy. Speaking about his rapid rise, he noted: "What I experienced and what we experienced in Bologna is something incredible, but how can you say no to the Premier League?" Still, he added hopefully about Roma: "I would like to return to celebrate under the Curva Sud in front of the fans."
