Maurits Kjaergaard continues to attract strong interest in Italy. Salzburg's Danish midfielder, born in 2003, has been a target for Genoa for several months, who identify him as a quality solution to reinforce the midfield next season.
At the Genoese club, Kjaergaard's profile fits the defined strategy: young, with potential and a wide margin of progression, representing an investment with a return in the present and in the future. Its technical qualities and room for evolution place it among the priorities for the average.
In the last few hours, however, direct competition has emerged. Sassuolo have expressed a concrete interest in the Danish under-21 international, positioning themselves as a new rival in an attempt to bring him to Serie A.
With Sassuolo on the scene, the operation becomes more complicated for Genoa, who will now have to face a more intense competition for one of the most promising midfielders of his generation in the Italian market.
