Switzerland international Djibril Sow just touched down in Italy tonight, ready to undergo his Genoa medical on Thursday. This whole deal has come out of nowhere, with reports circulating only last night that a move was even happening. Talk about a swift play!
How Genoa Pulled This Off So Fast
It turns out the Grifone didn’t mess around, activating a sweet €4m release clause in Sow’s contract with Sevilla. That’s why this operation went from rumor to reality so quickly. According to Il Secolo XIX, personal terms were a breeze too. The dude’s already landed with his family and is set to rest up tonight before diving into those medical tests first thing Thursday morning. It’s almost too easy for Genoa, right?
Getting to Know Djibril Sow
So, who exactly is Genoa getting? Sow is 29 years old and has stacked up 56 senior caps for Switzerland. He even played in the 2026 World Cup across the USA, Canada, and Mexico. Before his €10m move to Sevilla in summer 2023, he played for clubs like FC Zurich, Borussia Monchengladbach, Young Boys, and Eintracht Frankfurt. This guy’s got serious experience on the big stage.
This transfer, if the medical goes through, brings a seasoned international to Genoa on what looks like an absolute steal. Thursday morning’s medical is the final hurdle, and if all checks out, Genoa gets a huge boost.
