Genoa are hoping to finalise perhaps one of the biggest transfer coups in Serie A this summer.
Sky Sport reports the Ligurian side are pushing to complete the transfer acquisition of Mateo Retegui from Boca Juniors within the next 48 hours. The Argentine’s entourage met with Genoa’s senior management in Milano earlier today.
The parties made significant progress and the negotiation is in the final stretch with only minor details left to resolve.
Il Grifone are very optimistic they’ll win the race for the 24 year-old, subsequently fending off competition from the Premier League. They’ve already agreed to pay €15 million plus bonuses for the striker’s signature.
