Hearts Defender Daniel Oyegoke Joins Hellas Verona

Hellas Verona has successfully signed Daniel Oyegoke from Hearts, securing him until 2028 with an option for an additional year, despite competition from Lecce. The Nigerian-born defender had been a key player for Hearts, attracting interest from multiple clubs due to his impressive performances. His move to Verona marks a notable transfer in the Serie A, as the club aims to bolster its defense. Meanwhile, Manchester United continues to pursue Patrick Dorgu from Lecce, having had a bid rejected, and is considering including bonuses in a new offer. Lecce is aware of the need to find a replacement for Dorgu, having previously shown interest in Oyegoke before Verona's intervention. As the transfer window progresses, clubs are actively negotiating to strengthen their squads for the season ahead.
