Palermo is interested in Antonio Barreca, who was not called up for Sampdoria's recent matches. Despite good relations between Cosenza and Sampdoria, Barreca's high salary poses a challenge to the transfer.

Antonio Barreca is out of Andrea Pirlo's plans at Sampdoria and is highly likely to leave. He was not called up for the match against Frosinone and is unlikely to be called up for the upcoming match against Reggiana. Tuttosport reports that the most probable scenario is a contract termination, although Palermo has shown interest in the player.
