Dany Mota, a Portuguese centre-forward who was recently promoted to Serie A with Monza, is one of the players being considered by Palermo to reinforce their attack. The striker's profile has reportedly convinced the City Group, which considers him an ideal partner to play alongside Joel Pohjanpalo in the new Rosanero attack. The player had previously been monitored by Palermo in the January window. According to Giornale di Sicilia, the Monza club is now seriously considering selling him in the summer.

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.
