Lecce targets new centre‑forward and defensive reinforcements for Serie A

Lecce's technical director Stefano Trinchera is active in the transfer market as the club prepares for its fifth consecutive Serie A season. The team is looking to add a new striker to partner with Nikola Stulic, with Walid Cheddira (currently owned by Napoli) mentioned as a possible option, though not a priority. Other attacking prospects under consideration include Paco Esteban, Andrea Le Borgne and the Belgian‑born Spanish forward Beau Reus.

In defence, head coach Eusebio Di Francesco has five centre‑backs—Tiago Gabriel, Jamil Siebert, Kialonda Gaspar, Jean and Pérez—and may rely on a Siebert‑Gaspar pairing if Gabriel departs after the World Cup. The club is also monitoring goalkeeper options, but current first‑choice keepers Wladimiro Falcone and Christian Früchtl remain in place.
