Marco Palestra has established himself as one of Serie A’s best-performing wingbacks this season.
Indeed, he has tallied a goal and four assists in 29 league appearances for Cagliari, whom he joined on a season-long last summer.

Meanwhile, Inter have earmarked him as a potential long-term successor to Denzel Dumfries, who could leave the club in the summer.
