Hellas Verona have been on the market for a center back with Dawidowicz out for the season and Magnani's recent departure for Sampdoria. The veneti are close to signing Panagiotis Retsos to address the need, the Greek defender born in 1998 is owned by Bayer Leverkusen.
Retsos' current contract is set to expire at the end of the season with the two clubs in talks to reach an agreement which is now close. Last season Retsos played on loan at St Etienne, he's now on the verge of joining Tudor's squad.
