TSG Hoffenheim has recruited right-back Valentin Gendrey from the Italian Serie A club US Lecce. The 24-year-old former French U21 international has played three times for the French youth team and has already played four matches with the U18 national team of his country of origin.
Valentin Gendrey has moved from Lecce to Hoffenheim. Lecce's sporting director, Corvino, has brought in Frederic Guilbert to replace him.
Valentin Gendrey is set to join Hoffenheim from Lecce for 10 million euros. Lecce has already found his replacement in Frederic Guilbert.
Valentin Gendrey, the French right-back from Lecce, will sign with Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Monday. Hoffenheim will pay €10 million to bring Gendrey from Lecce in Serie A. He will sign a four-year contract with the Bundesliga club.
Valentin Gendrey is signing his contract with Hoffenheim. The defender was bought for 40,000 euros and will now be sold for 10 million euros. Lecce's coach, Luca Gotti, bid him farewell after their match against Inter, mentioning Gendrey's dedication and team spirit.
Hoffenheim has increased the pressure and the offer for Lecce's Valentin Gendrey. Last night, the full-back bid farewell to the fans, indicating that his departure is imminent.
Luca Gotti mentioned in a press conference that Valentin Gendrey has likely played his last match for Lecce. Gendrey has shown great team spirit and professionalism. The transfer is expected to be completed in the coming hours.
Valentin Gendrey is very close to a transfer to Hoffenheim for about 8-9 million euros. Gendrey bid farewell to Lecce fans at San Siro after the match against Inter, which was likely his last game for Lecce. The transfer will be finalized in the coming hours, as confirmed by sports director Trinchera.
The French defender of Lecce, very close to a transfer to Hoffenheim, was still fielded as a starter by Luca Gotti, the coach of the Giallorossi, in the upcoming match against Inter at San Siro. After initially rejecting the first offer of 7 million euros, the German club has increased their bid and Lecce seems ready to accept.
A new offer from Hoffenheim has been made to Lecce for Valentin Gendrey. Sky Sport reported that the German club is nearing the acquisition of the player, who was born in 2000, from the Salento club. Following Lecce's rejection of the previous 7 million euro offer, the Bundesliga club has increased their bid and anticipates a favorable outcome shortly. Despite this, the player has been called up by Luca Gotti for tomorrow's match against Inter at San Siro.
Hoffenheim is keen on acquiring the full-back Valentin Gendrey despite their initial offer of 7 million euros being rejected. Lecce, who signed Gendrey on a free transfer in 2021, does not seem inclined to part with the player. Hoffenheim is considering increasing the offer to 8.5 million euros, which might lead Lecce's decision-makers, Pantaleo Corvino and Stefano Trinchera, to reconsider the sale. Gendrey could potentially double his salary in Germany, which might push him to advocate for the transfer in the last week.
According to Sky Sport, Hoffenheim has put a 7 million euro offer on the table for Valentin Gendrey's transfer. Lecce has declined the proposal for now, but an increased offer is expected in the coming hours that might convince the club to sell. Gendrey started in the first match of the season against Atalanta and made 37 appearances last season, scoring two goals and providing three assists.
Hoffenheim is very interested in Valentin Gendrey and has made an official offer to acquire him. However, Lecce, specifically their sporting director Pantaleo Corvino, has opposed the transfer and does not intend to sell the French right-back.
