Simone Verdi has been one of the most impressive players in this Serie A season, scoring four goals in 14 Serie A appearances, with performances which have led to an Italian national team call-up. The 25 year old former AC Milan youth team player has attracted the attentions of several clubs around Europe, especially Inter and Juventus.
In the Premier League West Ham have been monitoring his progress closely and are said to be interested despite their change of manager. According to Tuttosport, the owner of Bologna, Joey Saputo, has decided on the asking price for his Italian star and the minimum asking price is €20 million.
One of the most interesting attributes of Simone Verdi is his ability to shoot comfortably with either his left or right foot, much like current Inter player Ivan Perisic. The Italian winger wrote Serie A history earlier this season against Crotone for scoring two free kicks, one with each foot.
greatly OVERRATED and just an average italian, provincial player. future flop.
— scoring JUST four goals in 14 Serie A appearances,haha
He could be our Dybala to accompany Icardi on the front line.
Better than Eder. For 20M I’ll get him anyday!
20m is not bad for this day and age for a 25 year old Italy international that is two footed and very talented. Let’s get him!
2 goals per foot in season, 2 goals from free kicks, only 2 goals from game.
