Bologna, Como, and Fiorentina have explored a move for Parma's 24-year-old striker, Mateo Pellegrino. Parma's €30 million valuation for the Argentine attacker is a significant obstacle for Serie A sides. This financial barrier creates an advantage for Premier League clubs, and Newcastle United, Everton, and Brentford have included the player on their summer shortlists. Parma CEO Federico Cherubini has stated that the club is aware of the widespread interest but is in no hurry to sell. A potential transfer is further complicated by a 50% sell-on clause owed to Pellegrino's former club, Vélez Sarsfield. Pellegrino joined Parma in February 2025, has a contract with the club until June 2030, and scored 9 goals with 1 assist in 37 Serie A appearances in the 2025/2026 season.
