Forward Boulaye Dia of Salernitana is attracting the interest of the Spanish club Girona, which, following last season, secured a historic first entry into the UEFA Champions League.
According to insider Nicolò Schira, the Spanish team has inquired about the 27-year-old Senegalese player, who is ready to leave Salernitana during this summer's transfer window. His current contract with the Italian club runs until June 2026.
Dia was acquired by the Italians for €12 million from Villarreal last summer after a successful loan spell. Previously, he played for the French club Reims. Last season, Dia scored 4 goals in 18 matches. The season before last was particularly productive for him, with 16 goals and 6 assists in 33 matches.
Notably, last summer the player was valued at €25 million, but since then his value has dropped by 2.5 times.
