Lorenzo Pellegrini has agreed to sign a new deal with Roma, according to Jose Mourinho.

Pellegrini scored twice and encouraged his teammates in Roma's 5-1 win against CSKA Sofia, confirming an amazing start to the season, but Mourinho confirmed that the contract extension drama is coming to an end.

“He is a player with quality, a great deal of potential and he told me yesterday that he’ll sign the new contract soon. I think it can definitively give more strength to this rapport he is building with the fans.

“Pellegrini is the captain, he will sign a new contract and is very important for us.”

In the same game, Mourinho revealed that even though they won he was not happy with the performance his team put up and that there wasn’t enough intensity, and they lost so many defensive duels.
