Igor Paixao has been making waves this season with his outstanding performances. The 24-year-old winger has been remarkable in the Champions League, helping Feyenoord Rotterdam reach the Round of 16.
Additionally, he is one of the top scorers in the Eredivisie. His brilliance has not gone unnoticed, with recent reports linking him to a potential move to the Premier League. However, it appears that another top league might now be a possible destination for him.
According to Ekrem Konur’s social media updates, Igor Paixao might eventually find himself in Serie A, as his situation is being closely monitored by SSC Napoli and AS Roma.
Both Azzurri and Giallorossi are in need of serious reinforcements for their attacking line-up, which is why they have taken an interest in Feyenoord Rotterdam’s star. The Italian clubs would likely have to shell out over 30 million euros, the estimated value of the player born in 2000.
In the current campaign, the proficient striker has played 42 matches, scored 14 goals, and provided 17 assists. The left winger has been successfully representing the Red-White-and-Black team since August 2022, moving to De Kuip from Coritiba for 4.5 million euros, where he took his initial steps in professional football.
Igor Paixao’s current employment agreement is set to expire on June 30, 2029.
