RadioBari reports that Mantova is also interested in Leonardo Benedetti. Benedetti is out of contract in June.

According to Tuttomercato, Mantova is showing interest in acquiring Leonardo Benedetti from Sampdoria. The club, which recently achieved promotion to Serie B, sees Benedetti as a desirable addition. Currently part of Sampdoria, Benedetti is regarded as a modern midfielder known for his physical strength, proficiency in ball recovery, and overall dynamism. Having developed through Sampdoria's youth academy, he has also accumulated valuable experience playing with Monopoli and Bari in Serie C and B. Despite facing some physical challenges during the last season at Sampdoria, Benedetti is still viewed as a promising player with room for development. Mantova is reportedly considering making a move for him in the upcoming weeks, potentially exploring options such as a loan or a permanent transfer with a buy-back clause.
