Genoa is expected to soon announce the signing of Niang, intent on bolstering its offensive line-up. However, recent transfer rumours might suggest a surprising twist, with a rival potentially stealing the player away from the Rossoblù.
According to the Italian football site Pianeta Empoli, Empoli FC has shown interest in the former AC Milan player. However, it’s understood that they lag far behind Genoa in the race, due in part to salary-related issues.
