Maxwel Cornet had joined Genoa on loan from West Ham in the winter transfer window.
The Frenchman didn’t quite make a mark in London but he is doing quite the opposite at Genoa.
He’s played four games in Serie A, scoring once and assisting once and is capturing some attention in Italy.
It now seems as if Genoa are interested in keeping the winger at the club for a longer time.
La Repubblica, as relayed by CalcioGenoa, have reported that the Italian club already have an agreement with West Ham to renegotiate the loan deal at the end of the season.
It remains to be seen as to what sort of agreement is later reached between the two parties but several options can be on the table.
There could be a possible extension of the loan deal and there could also be an option to buy Cornet at the end of that temporary move. The possibility of a permanent exit from West Ham has also been reported.
Cornet is currently only on a dry loan deal at Genoa.
