Mateo Pellegrino has impressed for Parma so far this season. The striker is now attracting attention from Tottenham, West Ham and Nottingham Forest.
The 24-year-old Argentine has seven goals in all competitions, while playing in a team which is battling to survive relegation in Serie A.
Pellegrino arrived at Parma last January and since his arrival has ten goals in 28 games. He’s showcased a very reliable aerial ability and is also known to be very good on the ball.
Calciomercato’s Daniele Longo has reported about interest from AC Milan.
They want a striker in January but signing Pellegrino will not be easy next month.
This is because Tottenham, West Ham and Nottingham Forest have ‘set their sights’ on the player.
The journalist claims that in the summer, Parma rejected a €15m offer from a Premier League club. The exact identity of the club remains unknown but this helped the Serie A strugglers establish a price tag for their asset.
In January, Tottenham, West Ham and Nottingham Forest will have to make a ‘huge offer’ to land the player.
Parma paid only €2m to Velez Sarsfield to sign Pellegrino earlier this year. Despite the possibility of a major capital profit, they aren’t keen on a January sale.
Suitors are more likely to sign the forward in the summer, with Pellegrino helping Parma battle relegation.
