Lecce want free agent Addai or impressive talent Guirassy

Lecce have set their sights on Qarabag attacking winger Emmanuel Addai, also linked with Bologna, and Nantes teenager Herba Guirassy, claim Sky Sport Italia.

Transfer pundit Gianluca Di Marzio maintains that the pair have caught the attention of the Stadio Via del Mare side, who managed to secure their Serie A status for another season.

They confirmed coach Eusebio Di Francesco and are now building the squad for the new campaign.

Addai is a particularly intriguing idea for Lecce, because his contract with Qarabag is set to expire on June 30, so he will be available as a free agent.

He turns 25 in August and plays primarily on the left wing, but can also work on the right in an attacking role.

Qarabag participated in the Champions League this term, where Addai scored a goal in one of his 10 appearances for the club.

Overall, he scored eight goals and provided four assists in 49 competitive games.

Another target for Lecce is Guirassy, who turns 20 in August and plays in a similar role, so likely only one would be picked up.

Unlike Addai, Guirassy is under contract and therefore would be a more costly proposition, emerging from the Nantes youth academy and progressing to the senior squad in 2024.

He made 21 appearances this term, scoring three goals with one assist.
