Giovanni Leoni, defender for Parma born in Rome in 2006 and soon to turn 19, is one of the most crystal-clear talents in Italian football is proven by the season just concluded with the Crociati shirt — his first in Serie A — but above all by the long line of top clubs that are knocking these days at the door of the Emilian team and the player’s entourage, hoping to bring home the talent that Parma purchased last summer from Sampdoria.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport this morning, the two clubs currently starting from the front row are Milan and Inter, ready to stage one of the most classic transfer market derbies to sign the 2006-born player. Juventus trails just behind. However, for anyone wishing to secure Leoni, writes CorSport, offering 20 million will not be enough: Parma is asking for at least 30 and today even hopes to spark an auction that could further raise the price of the player’s card.
