Report Parma tracking 21-year-old Swedish talent Skoglund

Parma are reportedly showing an interested in talented Swedish right-back Hampus Skoglund of Hammarby.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, the Ducali are keeping a close eye on the player and are preparing a possible offer.

He turned 21 in March and plays as a right-back or a right wing-back in a five-man midfield.

Skoglund of interest to Parma

With five caps for Sweden at Under-21 level, in which he scored one goal, Skoglund only recently signed a new contract with Hammarby.

That means his current deal runs to December 2029 and that will inevitably raise the price tag.

A product of their youth academy, he has already made 17 appearances for the club this season.

Parma are under the guidance of new coach Carlos Cuesta, who was poached from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal staff.
