Returns to Genoa
El Shaarawy has agreed to a contract with Genoa.
Analysis: El Shaarawy spent the summer as a free agent after his deal with Roma and is returning to one of his very first clubs. He registered two goals and two assists, adding 30 shots (13 on target), 18 chances created and 27 crosses (three accurate) in 27 games (eight starts) in 2025/2026, as he generally has a small role. He'll be able to play either as a no.10 or on the left wing, contributing to replacing Brooke Norton-Cuffy.
Scores off bench
El Shaarawy scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 win against Verona.
Analysis: The attacker found the back of the net in what will be his final game for Roma, as his contract is not being renewed by the club. El Shaarawy struggled mightily this season, with just one goal and two assists in Serie A play.
