Sampdoria wants to recruit Fernando Llorente
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Napoli senior striker, Fernando Llorente is able to leave the transfer market deadline and head to Sampdoria.
It will be difficult to get a chance to play at Napoli this season with the arrival of Victor Osimhen and Andrea Petagna, veteran striker, Fernando Llorente reportedly could leave the San Paolo on deadline day.
According to the latest news from Calciomercato.it, the player can immediately join Sampdoria ahead of the closing of the summer transfer window on Monday (05/10).
The two teams are said to have reached an agreement on a move from Llorente, and hope all personal details can be resolved before the close of the transfer window.
Napoli themselves really wanted to let go of the player because they hope to ease the burden on the team’s salary, considering that currently the pandemic condition has the potential to disrupt the finances of any club.
Llorente himself currently has a salary of Rp. 43 billion, a large amount for a player who is currently arguably the third choice as the main striker at the club.
Carried off from Tottenham Hotspur on a free transfer in 2019, the player himself has only been able to score four goals in 24 competitive matches with Gennaro Gattuso’s team until now.
Even though he is 35 years old, the presence of Llorente could be very useful for Sampdoria as they add one more experienced player to help Claudio Ranieri’s squad.
In undergoing the new Serie A season, the arrival of an attacker who is full of experience will add to the strength of the club.
It is unclear how much it will cost Sampdoria to sign Llorente, but of course it will not be too high considering the age of the player.
Apart from that, the attacker also really wanted to be released by Napoli so of course the club coached by Gattuso would certainly provide relief for the team who wanted to bring the player from Spain.
It remains to be seen whether the two clubs will be able to finish all the details ahead of the end of the summer transfer window. There are so many situations that a transfer plan can be canceled due to a lack of time to finalize the details. �?�2
