According to Il Mattino, Avellino has now defined the purchase of Coli Saco with Napoli. Coli Saco is expected to return from Switzerland, as Yverdon will not be redeeming him following his 8 appearances, and will then be loaned to Avellino with an option to buy. The two clubs are expected to define the fee for a possible purchase today.

Coli Saco, a 23-year-old midfielder owned by Napoli, could return to Italy following his loan at Yverdon in Switzerland, where he made eight appearances. Saco is the leading candidate to replace Emmanuel Gyabuaa at Avellino, as Gyabuaa is almost certain to return to Atalanta before a subsequent loan to Catania in Serie C. The Franco-Malian player, who has been capped seven times by the Mali U23 national team and played in Serie B with Bari last year, has also attracted interest from Pescara, although Avellino seems to be in a stronger position to sign him. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value to be €200k.
