Genoa pushing for Hernani, but there is competition from Gremio

Genoa continue their active transfer window, the rossoblù are close to adding Hernani to their midfield.

The 1994-born Brazilian seemed set to move to Galatasary, who were closing in in the last weeks. Genoa's interest has intensified in recent hours, now Preziosi's club is leading the competition to close the deal.

The player approves of the move, Genoa's directors are now negotiating with Parma. The rossblù want to close on a base on a loan with purchase obligation fixed at €5.5 million.

Genoa still face competition from Gremio, who want to purchase Hernani on an outright sale. The club's CEO is traveling to Italy to try to bring the deal to a close, Genoa meanwhile are planning to close imminently.
