Pierluigi Gollini has emerged as the top candidate to become Genoa’s new goalkeeper, despite reports linking the club to David De Gea. The Italian shot-stopper, currently owned by Atalanta, has reportedly given his approval to join the Ligurian club. This development comes after Gollini’s proposed move to Monza fell through in recent hours.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Genoa have been actively searching for a new goalkeeper to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season. The club’s interest in Gollini intensified following the collapse of his transfer to Monza, creating an opportunity for the Rossoblu to secure his services.
Born in 1995, Gollini brings valuable experience to the table, having played for several top-tier clubs including Atalanta and Napoli. His potential arrival at Genoa would provide a significant boost to the team’s defensive lineup.
The negotiations between Genoa and Atalanta are expected to progress quickly, as both clubs aim to finalize the deal. Gollini’s willingness to join Genoa has accelerated the process, making him the frontrunner for the goalkeeper position.
