Niccolò Chiorra was set to join Sampdoria as a reserve goalkeeper in exchange for Vismara and Ravaglia moving to Carrarese. This transfer was part of Sampdoria's strategy to address the temporary absence of their first-choice goalkeeper, Simone Ghidotti, who was sidelined due to a right quadriceps injury. Ghidotti's injury had complicated Sampdoria's transfer plans, as they were looking for immediate solutions to fill the goalkeeper position for upcoming matches against Cosenza, Modena, and Südtirol. The deal depended on the potential arrival of Samuel Perisan from Empoli, who could take over as the starting goalkeeper. If Perisan agreed to the move, Vismara and Ravaglia would complete their transfer to Carrarese, and Chiorra would step in as the reserve goalkeeper until Ghidotti's return.
