Virtus Entella is reportedly in the leading position to acquire 29-year-old Italian central defender Andrea Cistana from Spezia. The player has finished his season with Bari. The sporting director of the Chiavari club, Superbi, has had two meetings with Spezia to discuss the player, who has been identified as a defensive reinforcement. According to Il Secolo XIX, there are two possible paths for his move to Entella: the termination of his contract with Spezia, which expires in 2027, or spreading his salary over two years followed by a loan that includes an obligation or option to buy. Cistana made 24 appearances and provided one assist in Serie B for Bari during the 2025/2026 season. He has a current market value of €750k, according to Transfermarkt, and has not been capped by the Italian national team.
