Sampdoria are eyeing Liverpool striker Mario Balotelli.
Sampdoria president Massimo Ferrero predicts the club will lose star forwards Stefano Okaka and Manolo Gabbiadini - and wants Balotelli to fill the void.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Ferrero has drawn up a two-candidate list to maintain to replace their target men: Parma's Antonio Cassano and Balotelli.
Balotelli could be talked into joining the Genoa club, whose agent Mino Raiola also represents Sampdoria goalkeeper Sergio Romero.
