Genoa, looking for a deputy Martinez: hot track in Romania

Genoa, Robert Popa is being evaluated as deputy Martinez

After winning promotion, Genoa is already working to strengthen the squad for the upcoming Serie A championship. Among the various objectives is that of a reinforcement in goal, as Josep Martínez’s future would be uncertain due to the expiration of his contract in June 2024.

According to several market experts, the name that would be circulating most insistently in the Rossoblù household would be that of Robert Popa, a Romanian extreme defender on the strength of Craiova. In the coming weeks, the Grifone could establish relations with the player’s entourage to understand the feasibility of the operation.

For Genoa, the young goalkeeper (2003) could represent a big opportunity, as his contract expiring in 2025 could make the Romanian club lower its demands.
