Sampdoria is prioritizing signing an experienced defender, and Federico Barba from Como fits the profile. He was not called up for the match against Milan last Tuesday and is expected to be the next reinforcement for Sampdoria.

Federico Barba, who is currently playing for Como, is under consideration by Sampdoria as a solution to their defensive problems. Accardi, familiar with Barba from their shared time at Empoli, has expressed interest in bringing him to the club. Sampdoria is dealing with a defensive crisis, having several injured players such as Romagnoli, Ferrari, and Bereszynski. The club is actively searching for reinforcements to enhance their defense, with the goal of having new players ready for the training resumption on January 6. Born in 1993, Barba is one of the experienced players that Sampdoria is considering, as they aim to strengthen their squad with seasoned defenders.
