Celta Vigo star in the sights of Genoa | OneFootball

A member of the attacking ranks at La Liga outfit Celta Vigo is attracting interest from Italian side Genoa.

That’s according to transfer insider Nicolò Schira, who points towards Jonathan Bamba as the player in the sights of the Genoa brass.

Bamba, for his part, has played something of a bit-part role for Celta Vigo across the season to date.

Owing to a combination of fitness problems, competition for places and rotation, the Ivorian has featured from the off in just over half of the Celestes’ league fixtures in 2024/25.

And, evidently, the aforementioned Genoa are hopeful that such developments could open the door for a potential departure from Balaídos for Bamba.

As per a report from Nicolò Schira, amid their ongoing search for reinforcements out wide, the Rossoblù have earmarked the 28-year-old as a leading option.

Contacts, in turn, are expected to be initiated over the days ahead.
