There was a good news regarding Roma squad because their defender Chris Smalling has been decide to extended his contract and he will be at Roma until 2025 and Smalling said he feel comfortable to playing at Roma so it was easy decide for him when Roma offering contract extension because he want to play at this team much longer and this season Smalling has been played 32 matches in Serie A and he is one important defender for AS Roma and no wonder Roma are willing to give him contract extension because Mourinho was very satisfied with his performance and Smalling was arrived to Roma since 2019 although Roma has been changing coaches several times but Smalling always be gets one place in starting lineup

In my opinion, Chris Smalling really deserved the contract extension and it is quite evident that this season the Roma defense is so solid with him. It looks like Roma know how to appreciate their players who have contributed fully over the past few seasons and Smalling is one of those players.

Mourinho seems also very happy because one of his former players at Manchester United can get a contract extension for up to two more seasons with Roma. Smalling is not young anymore and he is already 33 years old, but maybe after the end of his contract Roma will get a replacement soon.

It's been 6 years they have missed the Serie A title and actually this season is a golden opportunity for them to have it again.
Chris Smalling has fought very well for Roma, has a strong and solitary defense, from all of Roma's matches this season they have not conceded goals too badly because the defense they have is really good.
Chris Smalling deserves that extension and Roma will also not waste the opportunity to be able to have Chris Smalling even longer so that next season they can perform better.

Although there is a possibility that after the contract extension runs out, Roma will release Chris Smalling, but at least he can still be counted on for Roma this season and next season.
