Despite some sporadic appearances, Antonino La Gumina has never fully convinced the coach and management, who now consider him among the players likely to depart.

Antonino La Gumina's situation is more complex. He has underperformed in recent years, scoring only 1 goal in 16 appearances for Mirandes in Spain in 2024, and 2 goals in 12 games for Sampdoria in the previous six months. His high salary makes it difficult to find potential buyers. There have been some inquiries from Spain's Segunda Division, but nothing concrete.

La Gumina has a contract with Sampdoria until 2027, with a salary considered top-tier for Serie B. Sampdoria hopes to earn some money from the sale of his card, which was previously valued at 5.5 million euros.
