In an update on Mota's potential move to Palermo, Tuttomercato reports that the player is injured and is undergoing a check-up today to understand the extent of the injury.

As Palermo seeks a replacement for Matteo Brunori, sporting director Carlo Osti is considering Monza forward Dany Mota as a third option, with Matteo Tramoni being the priority and Denis Johnsen the alternative. The profile of the Portuguese-Luxembourgish player, born in 1998, is different from the other two targets, as he developed as an attacking midfielder or winger before becoming an atypical center-forward. The negotiation is considered complicated because Monza, which Mota joined in July 2020, is a direct competitor with Palermo in the standings and is unlikely to sell a starter to a promotion rival. Mota's contract expires in 2027, and the possibility of a new project could be a factor in his decision. Palermo is monitoring the situation and is prepared to act on any opportunity. In 16 Serie B appearances this season, Mota has 4 goals and 2 assists, and his current Transfermarkt market value is €3.50m.
