Cagliari, new striker on the way

Cagliari, new striker on the way

Although Cremonese was also interested, Cagliari is closing in on Gianluca Lapadula.

The now former Benevento striker, therefore, will remain in Serie B.

The island club thus finds a new striker to chase the immediate rise in the top flight.

As reported by Sky Sport, the naturalized Peruvian player underwent medical examinations with the Rossoblù on the morning of Monday, July 25, and will soon make himself available to Fabio Liverani, Cagliari’s new coach.

Like Serie A, the start of Serie B is set for the weekend of August 12-14, a rather early start due to the unprecedented “winter” World Cup that will be staged in Qatar from November 21 to December 18, 2022. However, if during this period the Serie A will stop, it will not be the same for the Serie Cadetta, which will continue on a regular basis, forcing clubs with players called up for the World Cup to have to forgo it for a few days.
