Multiple sources are reporting that Genoa have added Cedric Bakambu as one of their top transfer targets. The Real Betis forward is rumoured to be attracting attention ahead of the next transfer window, with insiders claiming preliminary talks could soon take place. Genoa remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Pisa, Oviedo and Alaves continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. So far this season, Genoa are averaging 1.05 goals scored per game (22 goals /21 games), close to the Serie A average. Cedric Bakambu would be expected to help them push higher and add more variety in attack. Real Betis continue to be linked with Troy Parrott and Mikel Amondarain while Genoa are also rumoured to be tracking Cristian Casseres Jr, Nils Zatterstrom and Justin Bijlow.
