Ukrainian linebacker Viktor Kovalenko got into the shortlist of the Italian “Genoa”, reports La Gazzetta dello Sport.
According to the source, the Griffins decided to consider the market of free agents after a serious injury to the midfielder of the Ukrainian national team Ruslan Malinovsky.
28-year-old Kovalenko, who has experience playing in the championship of Italy, is one of the candidates for the role of replacement for the injured Ukrainian.
In the 2023/24 season, Viktor Kovalenko played 17 matches for Empoli on loan, scoring 2 goals and 1 assist. In the summer, his contract with Atalanta ended, so now the player is a free agent.
