SCR sports director Zoran Barisic confirms to the “courier“that he is in final talks with the Lombards regarding the 21-year-old defensive all-rounder.

Cremonese is said to have improved his offer again, most recently there was speculation about a required transfer fee of over 4 million euros. “We could be very satisfied,” Barisic lets know that the Aiwu share (bought from Admira for EUR 600,000 in the previous summer) was worth it for Rapid.

According to “cuoregrigiorosso.com”, the transfer could be fixed as early as tomorrow, Wednesday. Accordingly, Aiwu’s management will travel to Lombardy for final negotiations.

According to Barisic, Aiwu’s departure should be intercepted internally; Especially in central defense Rapid has enough alternatives with Maximilian Hofmann, Kevin Wimmer, Christopher Dibon, Michael Sollbauer, Leopold Querfeld, Aristot Tambwe-Kasengele and Martin Moormann.
