Meanwhile, multiple sources confirm they have also agreed to send Maleh to Cremonese on loan with an option to buy at the end of the campaign.
That will become an obligation if Cremonese secure their Serie A status.
The 27-year-old Italo-Moroccan midfielder had gone out on loan already to Empoli in 2023, but returned over the summer, making only nine Serie A appearances.
