At least a couple million more than the €10 million that Roma had initially offered Verona for centre-back Daniele Ghilardi.

Ghilardi signed for Verona from Fiorentina in on loan in January 2022. The deal contained an option to buy which Verona exercised in the same July, costing €380,000 plus 50% of any future resale. The 22-year-old played 24 times for the Gialloblu in the 2024-25 season, having initially spent his first two seasons at the club on loan with Mantova and Sampdoria.

The youngster has 16 appearances for the Italian U21 national team, scoring one time for the Azzurrini.
