Brentford are monitoring Parma's 24-year-old Argentinian-Spanish striker Mateo Pellegrino, and reports from Italy indicate that fellow Premier League clubs Newcastle United and Everton are also interested in a move for the forward. All three English teams have shown concrete interest and have placed the player on their summer transfer shortlists, while Spurs have also been linked in the past. The report adds that Italian clubs including Bologna, Como, and Fiorentina have explored a potential deal, but Parma's €30 million valuation is a significant obstacle for them, giving the more financially powerful Premier League clubs an advantage. Parma CEO Federico Cherubini acknowledged that there is significant interest in the player but stated that the club is not in a hurry to sell. Any potential transfer is complicated by a clause that requires Parma to give 50% of the fee to Pellegrino's former club, Vélez Sarsfield. In the 2025/2026 Serie A season, Pellegrino made 37 appearances, scoring 9 goals and providing 1 assist. He joined Parma on February 3, 2025, and his contract is valid until June 30, 2030.
