Bournemouth made an offer of 25 million euros plus 5 million in bonuses for Giovanni Leoni, which was rejected by Parma. The valuation of Leoni is influenced by a potential national team call-up by Gennaro Gattuso.

Bournemouth is keen on signing Giovanni Leoni, seeing him as a potential replacement for Dean Huijsen, who recently left to join Real Madrid. The club has improved under Andoni Iraola’s management, which might be an attractive factor for Leoni.

Bournemouth is among the clubs interested in the young Italian central defender Giovanni Leoni. The interest is reported by journalist Nicolo Schira. Leoni, who is currently playing for Parma and has made 17 appearances with 1 goal in Serie A this season, extended his contract in February until June 2029. Alongside Bournemouth, other clubs such as Olympique de Marseille, Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Tottenham are also monitoring the progress of the 18-year-old Italian U19 international. Transfermarkt currently estimates his market value at 6.00 million euros.
