According to CalcioMercato, the name of Spezia's 28-year-old Italian centre-forward, Edoardo Soleri, has been mentioned in recent hours as a potential new striker for Sampdoria. The club's intention is to sign a structured centre-forward with a physical presence to add attributes the squad currently lacks, and Soleri is seen as fitting this description. The player has been used infrequently this season, with 17 appearances, mostly as a substitute, and one goal scored. Soleri, who has two caps for Italy U20, joined Spezia in July 2024 and is contracted until June 2027. His current market value is €300k, according to Transfermarkt. Cesena has also been linked with the striker.
