There have been several suggestions about different players this summer. However, when it comes to wingers and central defenders, there has always been an asterisk. That, of course, has been one must leave for another to arrive.
As time passes, it seems more unlikely that a move will be made, but Calciomercato.com report that this may not actually be the case.
This afternoon, it is suggested that the team lacks a ‘true marker’, which is one of Allegri’s latest requests. A ‘Chiellini-like’ player who can be a big figure for the squad going forward. To fill this role, the club want Giovanni Leoni.
The Italian has been specifically requested by the new manager, and wants to add him to the team for now and the future. However, there is also a route to Pietro Comuzzo, the Fiorentina defender. Both offer similar characteristics, young and Italian, with quality.
Another defender ‘wouldn’t hurt’. Regardless of this, though, a hit may have to be taken. Leoni’s price is now in the region of €40 million, which is very difficult for the Rossoneri to match.
