According to Di Marzio, Esposito’s next club will be in the top flight, however, rather than Serie B.

The Sky Sport Italia transfer expert reports that Empoli have come forward to sign the 22-year-old.

And according to Di Marzio, the negotiations are getting close. He anticipates that Empoli will be Esposito’s next club.

Esposito has played in Serie A before, for the Inter first team. However, he has only made cameo appearances for the club, during the 2019-20 season under Antonio Conte.

But now, it looks as though the young Nerazzurri striker will make the move to a team where he could feature regularly in the top flight.

Empoli are looking to strengthen after narrowly avoiding relegation last season.

The Tuscans kept themselves in Serie A with a dramatic late win over Roma on the final day of the campaign.

And Empoli have decided on Esposito as a player to reinforce their attack for the season to come.
