OFFICIAL: Andrea Pinamonti joins Genoa

Andrea Pinamonti is set to make a significant return to Genoa, having finalized his move from Sassuolo. The young Italian striker, who previously played for the Rossoblu on loan during the 2019-2020 season, is now eager to rejoin the club and contribute to their ambitions in Serie A.

Pinamonti began his professional career at Inter Milan, where he showcased his potential as a promising forward. After a series of loan spells, including a notable stint at Genoa, he made a name for himself in Italian football. His time at Genoa was marked by impressive performances, leading the club to activate their option to buy him. However, Inter exercised a buy-back clause shortly after, bringing him back to the club.

After winning the Serie A title with Inter, Pinamonti spent the following seasons on loan at various clubs, including Empoli, before moving to Sassuolo. His time at Sassuolo, however, was less successful, culminating in the team’s relegation at the end of the last season.

Now, with Genoa offering him a fresh start, Pinamonti is eager to make an impact. The club has been looking to bolster their attacking options, and his arrival is seen as a crucial addition. As the new season approaches, Pinamonti is racing against time to complete the necessary paperwork and be available for Genoa’s opening match against his former club, Inter Milan.

Genoa’s head coach, Alberto Gilardino, is keen to integrate Pinamonti into the squad quickly, recognizing his potential to make a difference on the pitch. The striker’s familiarity with the club and its environment is expected to aid in his swift adaptation.
