The Italy international joined Parma last summer from Juventus but could be on the move yet again with Paris Saint-Germain touted as a potential destination
The Italian Serie A has become the gravy train for Paris Saint-Germain in recent times. Last summer, the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567
Milan.
Indeed, sporting director http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003.
L’Equipe now claims that another Italian international could be set to join PSG this summer. Reports claim that the Ile giants are keeping a close eye on Parma star http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sebastian-Giovinco-c32724.
The pint-sized midfielder had a great 2011/2012 Serie A campaign with Parma in which he scored 15 goals in 36 league games.
Reports claim that PSG are not the only Ligue 1 side interested in the 25-year-old attacking midfielder. Current Ligue 1 leaders, Montpellier Herault, have also expressed a desire to sign the player which means that Paris Saint-Germain will have to speed
up their efforts if they really want to bring the Italian to the Parc des Princes this summer.
Giovinco joined Parma from Juventus last summer for just 3 million Euros after a testing time at the Turin club. However, Parma will certainly not be looking to part with their star player for a cheap price.
The club from Emilia-Romagna will not ask for anything less than 25 million Euros for Giovinco which means that Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier will have a lot of bargaining to do if they are to sign the mercurial attacking midfielder.
However, for PSG, signing Giovinco would be far easier than signing Kaka from Real Madrid. It also appears that Leonardo is keeping Giovinco as a second option if he fails to convince the Brazilian into joining the cash-rich side from Ile.
Giovinco was an under-appreciated player at Juventus but during his time at Parma, has become a huge star and definitely warrants a move to a club where he can have the chance of showcasing his skills in European competitions.
