Empoli have expressed interest in acquiring Junior Sambia, the 27-year-old French left-back currently playing for Salernitana. The Tuscan club are making a late push in the transfer window to bolster their defensive options.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports how Sambia, who joined Salernitana in 2022, has caught the eye of Empoli’s management with his performances in Serie A. The French defender’s versatility and experience make him an attractive prospect for Empoli as they look to strengthen their squad for the ongoing season.
According to the report, Empoli have already made a concrete offer to the player, proposing an annual salary of €500,000.
The ball is now in Sambia’s court, as the player must decide whether to accept the move to Empoli or remain with Salernitana. His decision will likely depend on various factors, including playing time prospects and the project presented by Empoli.
