Cagliari remain on the lookout for more attacking reinforcements even after welcoming Eldor Shomurodov from Roma last week.
The Sardinians want to acquire another striker to replace veteran Gianluca Lapadula, who underwent ankle surgery last week and will be out of action for at least three to four months. According to calciomercato.com, the club is now looking for a solution on the transfer market, and they have already set their sights on Monza striker Andrea Petagna.
The 28 year-old joined the Biancorossi last summer on loan with an obligation to buy, totaling €12.5 million. However, he underperformed throughout the 2022/23 season and was held to only 4 goals in 31 total league appearances—increasing Monza’s willingness to part with him.
