Roberto Soriano, formerly of Bologna, is now playing for Salernitana. This season, he has participated in 16 matches and netted 2 goals. While there is no firm interest from Sampdoria at the moment, they are considering Soriano as an alternative option if their deal for Valoti does not come to fruition. This is currently more of an initial inquiry rather than active talks. Sampdoria's primary target is Mattia Valoti from Monza, and reports suggest that they have reached an agreement for an 18-month contract with him. However, since the transfer is yet to be concluded, Sampdoria is keeping Soriano in mind as a backup should the Valoti deal not proceed. Any move for Soriano is likely to progress only towards the end of the transfer window.
