According to Tuttomercato, Benevento is showing interest in acquiring Riccardo Gagno to enhance their defense as part of their strategy for the Serie B promotion race. Gagno, who was a significant player for Modena last season, participated in 38 matches and managed to keep a clean sheet in eight of them. Reports suggest that Gagno is likely to leave Modena, as the club is nearing the completion of a deal to sign Leandro Chichizola from Spezia. The 26-year-old goalkeeper, who has been instrumental in Modena's performance, is identified as one of two prospective signings from the club, with defender Giovanni Zaro also being considered, as Benevento aims to fortify their defensive capabilities. Gagno's previous experience in helping Modena achieve promotion from Serie C to Serie B during the 2021/22 season adds to his appeal as a valuable asset for Benevento. Concurrently, Modena's active pursuit of Chichizola signals their willingness to part with Gagno, thereby increasing the likelihood of his transfer to Benevento.
