Patierno is highly appreciated by Catania. Although official statements indicate there is no chance of Patierno being transferred, the unpredictability of the last days of the transfer market means no scenario can be ruled out. The arrival of Facundo Lescano may push Avellino to reconsider its current forwards.

Cosimo Patierno is presently the leading forward for Avellino, which is a direct rival of Catania in the league table competition. As reported by TuttoMercatoWeb.com, Catania, managed by Ross Pelligra, is making significant efforts to secure Patierno to enhance their offensive capabilities. Despite having a revitalized Roberto Inglese, who has already scored in double figures, along with other key players such as Matteo Stoppa and Adriano Montalto, Catania is eager to boost their attacking strength with what would be seen as a major acquisition: Cosimo Patierno. The 33-year-old striker, who has previously played for clubs like Bitonto, Virtus Francavilla, Bisceglie, Teramo, Nardò, Grosseto, Gravina, and Martina Franca, remains the cornerstone of Avellino's attack.
