Spezia could turn to another loan for teenage Inter Milan striker Sebastiano Pio Esposito this summer transfer window.

This according to today’s print edition of Genoa-based newspaper Il Secolo XIX, via FCInterNews. They report that the 18-year-old could be an alternative to the Ligurians’ main target Filippo Pittarello.

Inter striker Francesco Pio Esposito got his first experience in senior football last season. He was out on loan with Spezia for the campaign.

The 18-year-old came through the youth ranks at Inter. He had starred for the Primavera or Under-19 team in the season prior to last.

Pio Esposito may have only scored three goals for Spezia last campaign.

However, the teenage striker impressed with his overall performances for the Ligurian side.

The sense is that, after a positive first campaign in senior football spent in Serie B, Pio Esposito would be ready to try his hand in the top flight.

And there would be no shortage of Serie A clubs hoping to bring the teenage striker in.

The likes of Lecce, Parma, and Cagliari are reportedly targeting the young striker. And Torino have also pushed to sign Pio Esposito.

Therefore, an experience in the top flight would be possible.

But on the other hand, Spezia could also look to bring the teenage striker back.

Spezia Could Turn To Another Loan For Francesco Pio Esposito

One of Spezia’s priorities in the current summer transfer window is to sign a striker.

However, Il Secolo XIX report, a lack of spending power could be a problem for the Ligurians.

The newspaper notes that Spezia’s top target in attack is Citadella striker Filippo Pittarello.

However, Citadella are demanding a fee of 350,000 for Pittarello.

Should Spezia not be able to outlay that fee, then they could look to another loan move.

And in that case, Il Secolo XIX report, Spezia would be interested in bringing Pio Esposito back next season.
