Udinese pushing for Wieteska as Perez Replacement

Udinese are intensifying efforts to secure Mateusz Wieteska from Cagliari as they look to bolster their defensive options following Nehuen Perez’s departure to Porto. The Friulian club, under the guidance of manager Runjaic, is keen to fill the void left by Perez’s transfer.

Gianluca Di Marzio reports how Initially, the deal was rumored to involve a potential swap with Udinese goalkeeper Marco Silvestri moving to Cagliari. However, this exchange component has been scrapped, with Udinese now focusing solely on acquiring Wieteska outright.

The Polish defender has emerged as a prime target for Udinese, who are determined to strengthen their backline. Wieteska’s experience in Serie A with Cagliari makes him an attractive option for the Bianconeri as they seek to maintain defensive stability.

While Udinese pushes to finalize the Wieteska deal, they are also keeping their options open. The club remains interested in Isaak Touré from Lorient, indicating their commitment to exploring multiple avenues to reinforce their squad.
