Frosinone Transfer Market: A Top Club Pulls Out of the Race for Ghedjemis; Alvini Is Waiting for Him
At newly promoted Frosinone, the future of Fares Ghedjemis—who was left off the roster for the home game against Juventus—remains unclear amid speculation about possible departures. As explained by sporting director Renzo Castagnini, the exclusion was reportedly due to the player’s lack of focus in the days leading up to the match against Juventus, as he was distracted by ongoing transfer rumors.
The Algerian attacking winger, born in 2002, has caught the eye of Monaco, while Besiktas’s interest appears to have waned. News about his future could emerge as early as the next few hours. Meanwhile, Alvini, following Sunday’s match, made it clear that he expects Ghedjemis to report as usual to the Ferentino training facility when practice resumes.
The Frosinone coach, however, had nothing but high praise for the player, describing him as a top-tier talent and reiterating his desire to continue coaching him, considering him a key player capable of making a difference in Frosinone’s fight to avoid relegation. These remarks demonstrate just how much the Giallazzurri club is still counting on the Algerian, even though his transfer situation remains far from settled.
The numbers clearly explain why Ghedjemis is so sought after: last season, he made 38 appearances and scored 15 goals across the league and the Coppa Italia, figures that have made him one of the most in-demand players on the roster. His experience at the World Cup with the Algerian national team has also contributed to further driving up his market value, definitively propelling him into the spotlight of the international transfer market. Monaco has reportedly already submitted a new offer to Frosinone and is currently the player’s preferred destination, while the two Scottish clubs—Celtic and Rangers—that had expressed interest in recent weeks appear to have definitively withdrawn.
On the incoming transfers front, meanwhile, Frosinone is closely monitoring the situation of Walid Cheddira, a Moroccan forward owned by Napoli. The player already spent time in the Ciociaria region during the 2023–24 season, leaving a great impression with seven goals in 36 league appearances plus one goal in the Coppa Italia. Napoli is ready to sell him outright, as he no longer fits into the club’s plans, and Frosinone is banking on the player’s strong connection to the local community. The competition, however, is real: Verona has also made a strong push in recent weeks. What could tip the scales is Cheddira’s own desire, as he has already shown in the past that he is particularly keen on remaining in Serie A.
