Two reports from the Italian press link the same Premier League clubs to Sampdoria’s Gregorie Defrel today.
Both Tuttosport and Tutto Mercato Web claim that Fulham, Watford and West Ham could be signing the player in the January window.
Starting with Tuttosport, they say that Sampdoria don’t plan to sell Defrel in the winter market, but that would change in case he asks to leave the club.
They say the striker is wanted by Atalanta, but the Cottagers, Hornets and Hammers also get a mention due to the recent rumours.
Then website Tutto Mercato Web comes up with a story claiming that Atalanta still depend on a departure to go after the striker.
It’s a different situation with the Premier League sides, who have been ‘in contact’ with Sampdoria.
TMW names the three same English clubs, and points out that Fulham are indeed in the race, despite Claudio Ranieri suggesting otherwise.
