Italian winger Daniele Verde, 29, will return to Spezia, where he has a contract until 2027, because Fatih Karagumruk's relegation nullified an obligation-to-buy clause in his loan agreement. However, he is not expected to stay in Italy, as there is interest in him from clubs in Saudi Arabia, Dubai, and Turkey after he scored one goal and provided four assists in eight appearances. Some expressions of interest have been received, and Al Ettifaq, sixth in its Saudi league, appears to be the team most intent on signing the player. His market value on Transfermarkt is currently €700k. Verde has 12 caps and one goal for the Italy U21 national team.
