Market: Genoa, two hits: Calafiori, Amiri is on the way

The double hit served. Waiting to understand what the fate of Andrij Shevchenko will be, who in all likelihood will be marked – in one way or another – after tonight’s Coppa Italia match against Milan, the new rossoblù general manager Johannes Spors has placed others two purchases. The first is Riccardo Calafiori, who landed at Genoa airport yesterday shortly after midnight: the left-back, who arrives from Rome on loan, presented himself to the Synlab Il Baluardo Institute for medical examinations today and will be at provision already for Fiorentina-Genoa, scheduled for next Monday. The market operation, at the same time, led to the exit of Fares in the direction of Turin.

From the Bundesliga

The other player who in the last few hours has been significantly approaching Genoa is completely in line with the new philosophy of Johannes Spors and 777 Partners: a ready, young but experienced profile that can explode immediately. This is Nadiem Amiri, a German midfielder with an Afghan passport from Bayer Leverkusen. Attacking midfielder but if necessary also central midfield or left-handed winger, he was launched by Julian Nagelsmann’s Hoffenheim (whose scout leader at the time was precisely Spors) and this season has made a total of 19 appearances. Just recovered from Covid, Amiri is ready to leave again. From another team and from another league.
