The Italian transfer expert says on X that the two clubs have reached a verbal agreement.

Cornet is already out on loan but has only made four appearances at Southampton this season.

Sky Sport Italia reported on Friday night that Genoa were ready to bid for unhappy Burnley winger Mike Trésor so it remains to be seen if the Grifone will still try to get the 25-year-old to Marassi.

Genoa appointed Vieira to replace Alberto Gilardino at the end of November. The Grifone lost 3-1 to Roma on Friday but remain five points above the drop zone with a game in hand.
