Mantova is showing interest in 24-year-old Albanian international Marvin Cuni, and Bari is also monitoring the forward's situation. Cuni's potential departure from Sampdoria is influenced by the risk of reduced playing time, particularly following the arrival of Begic in an already crowded attack. However, any transfer is contingent on the player first returning to Rubin Kazan at the end of his current loan. In 14 appearances in Serie B this season, Cuni has scored one goal and provided one assist. His current market value is €800,000, according to Transfermarkt, and he moved to Rubin Kazan from Frosinone in September 2024 for a reported fee of €2,000,000.
