Genoa interested in Lille’s Alan Virginius | OneFootball

Alan Virginius (22) is expected to leave Lille OSC this summer. However, the France youth international isn’t expected to be short of options.

Virginius, who has made one appearance for the France U21s, has struggled to break through at Lille since making the move from Sochaux back in 2022. However, he got his career back on track during a loan spell at Swiss side Young Boys last season, scoring seven goals and registering four assists in 45 appearances in all competitions.

Despite that return to form, he will not be retained by LOSC. He may, however, be retained by Young Boys, as per L’Équipe. The Swiss side have expressed a desire to enter into discussions over a permanent transfer.

However, they are not the only interested party. Serie A side Genoa are also interested with Patrick Vieira a particular fan of the French winger, whose contract at Lille runs until 2027.
