On the same day it was reported that Milan, managed by Rúben Amorim, are willing to let Santiago Giménez leave until the end of the season, without significant costs beyond his salary and with the possibility of including a purchase option – a deal structure that appeals to FC Porto – the name of another club interested in the 25-year-old Mexico international striker emerged in Spain.

According to the same report, Betis want to sign Giménez or Kalimuendo on loan. These two options gained momentum after the club spent several days assessing alternatives to their main target, FC Cincinnati’s Kévin Denkey. The striker is also wanted by Hull City and is valued at around €20 million, a fee considered high.

Franculino Djú, the Portuguese-Guinean forward from Midtjylland, Fiorentina’s Moise Kean, and Tottenham’s Mathys Tel are other options being considered by the Spanish club. Even so, they are behind Giménez, Kalimuendo and even Denkey, who, despite his high price tag, has still not been completely ruled out.

Santiago Giménez had also been linked with Lazio, but Gennaro Gattuso, coach of the Italian club, has already indicated that the move has been dropped.
