Strasbourg set €50m asking price for Joaquín Panichelli | OneFootball

Joaquín Panichelli is valued at €50m by his club, RC Strasbourg Alsace, as per a report from BBC Sport. 

Club captain Emanuel Emegha will leave RC Strasbourg Alsace in the summer. The Dutchman’s move to partner club Chelsea was confirmed back in September, much to the frustration of the Alsacien fans.

But Strasbourg already have an in-house replacement in the form of Panichelli. The Argentine, even with Emegha still at the club, has been the standout attacker for Le Racing this season. He already has 11 goals in his debut season in Ligue 1, just two fewer than the top scorer in the league, Olympique de Marseille’s Mason Greenwood.

L’Équipe reported at the end of the transfer window that a Premier League side made an approach for Panichelli. It was rebuffed. BBC Sport now add that the side that made that enquiry was quoted a price of €50m for the Argentina international.
