Verona have made a surprising move to sign Southampton defender Bella-Kotchap and are now waiting for the Germany international to undergo medical tests in Italy.
Southampton defender set for Verona medical
Bella-Kotchap was close to joining Nantes on loan, but Verona have hijacked the proposal from the French club and are now on the verge of securing the services of the 23-year-old, also on a temporary transfer.
Born in Paris in 2001, Bella-Kotcha has a German passport and made two appearances with the senior Germany national team in 2022.
Bella-Kotcha’s career so far
Bella-Kotcha is a centre-back who can also play as a right-back.
He made four Premier League appearances with Southampton last season but has also played for PSV and Bochum.
Verona kicked off the new Serie A campaign with a 1-1 draw against regional rivals Udinese on Monday.
