Cagliari are determined to give Eusebio Di Francesco a familiar face for his defense. The Sardinian club are in fact pursuing Juan Jesus, who played a significant role at Roma when Di Francesco managed the club.
The Brazilian defender has one year left on his contract, but earns substantial wages, which leaves Genoa as a possibility who now have sporting director Faggiano who previously pursued Juan Jesus while at Parma, but Cagliari are currently in the lead in the race.
