Arrivals
Argentine radio station Impacto Deportivo tweeted this afternoon that Piero Hincapie's destination should be Bayer Leverkusen as Napoli thinks that Tallares' demands are too high. He should cost between €9m and €10m. With this signing, our central defence will finally be complete and the quest for a left footer will be over.
Santiago Arias will leave Atletico Madrid according to Matteo Moretto. His destination is not yet known however it isn't wrong to speculate that Leverkusen will be one of the clubs vying for his signature. We may not have chosen to go with his purchase option however that was a fixed sum, and given his season-long injury, he was no longer worth that amount. Whatever the reason was, we will all watch these developments with interest.
Departures
Leon Bailey spoke to ESPN yesterday where he confirmed his readiness to leave the club and take the next step in his career. 'I feel like I am at an age in my life where I feel like I am ready for the next step. Hopefully we can make that happen soon'. He did not give anything away in regards to his destination, only that he wants to 'play at the highest level' and be somewhere that he can showcase himself. Recently Bayer 04 rejected a €30m bid from Aston Villa.
