** *Fantasy Alert with Panichelli! Could leave LaLiga.* **

** Strasbourg insists on the signing of Panichelli and raises the bid to 16 million. **



2.030.000€+240.000€ -

The name of Joaquín Panichelli is once again making noise in France. Strasbourg is not giving up on their attempt to sign the Alavés forward and is preparing a new offensive: 16 million euros for one of the most promising attackers last season in Segunda. According to Fabrizio Romano, the Alsatian club is confident of reaching an agreement in the coming days.
The first attempt - 15 million - was insufficient, but the determination of the French side has not cooled down. Alavés, who have the player protected with a contract until 2029 and a release clause of 20 million, knows that keeping him will be difficult. His season with Mirandés, with 21 goals and 8 assists, has opened the doors to the European stage for him.
Beyond the numbers, Panichelli has proven to be much more than a finisher. Powerful, with tactical reading, capable of playing with his back to goal, winning aerial duels, and creating spaces, the Argentine has established himself as one of the most complete profiles of the category.
In Vitoria, they are still waiting. The offer has not yet arrived, but it could completely change the club's planning. At Mendizorroza, they are not closed to a sale if the amount is attractive enough, and those 16 million are starting to gain traction in the offices.
Strasbourg is about to close the signing of Joaquín Panichelli, as reported by @FabrizioRomano. The deal will be sealed for 16 million euros. The forward was on loan last season at a great level in Mirandés. Watch out for the duo he can form with Emegha. pic.twitter.com/KfIifcGYHB

Twelve matches, zero goals
The potential transfer would provide a significant financial boost for Alavés, even though Panichelli has barely played 12 games with the first team and has not yet scored a goal.
If the deal goes through, Coudet would be left with Toni Martínez and Asier Villalibre as the only options up front. Furthermore, the departure of the Argentine would add to that of Kike García, forcing Sergio Fernández to act swiftly in the transfer market. However, with 16 million on the table, the room to bring in offensive talent of a higher level would be broader.
Fantasy Tip
The situation is not clear, and although the offer is already being reported in different sports media throughout Europe, we would hold on to the player until the potential departure is officially confirmed.
