The market is heating up. Just over a month to the final gong and Genoa wants to speed up for their goalkeeper. With Josep Martinez having moved to Inter for the sum of 13 million euros plus two in bonuses, the oldest club in Italy is looking around for a replacement. The rossoblù goalposts are currently defended by Nicola Leali, who has shown reliability in the past when called upon as well as in this pre-season. For the moment there is no rush, as Marco Ottolini himself declared at the end of the retreat in Moena: “We have some open and quite advanced situations. You will see that something will happen, but at the right times and in the right ways”.
De Gea Suggestion
The suggestion in these midsummer nights all lead to a name of great fame. It is David De Gea. Surely a very important possibility for a goalkeeper who has never worn the jersey of a Serie A team. After his experience at Manchester United, the goalkeeper remained unattached for a year and certainly wants to get back on track by playing in our championship. For the moment there would only be the opening of the player with the ball that would pass into the Grifone’s field.
Salary out of reach
Obviously the club is giving more than one thought to a goalkeeper who would certainly bring quality and experience to Alberto Gilardino’s group. But among the evaluations there is certainly the hiring of a top player who would however be out of reach. They are working on a two-year contract but the amount he earned at Manchester United is considered out of reach for the corporate coffers of Villa Rostan. We will now see what Genoa’s moves will be. They will have to make a decision. On a hot midsummer night.
