They will look for others players," he told Calciomercato.com.

However Ranocchia also pledged his allegiance to stay at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, and that he was just focused on the matches ahead. "In January I will stay at Genoa. Then I will accept what is to come in the future," he told Ansa. "In this moment I think only to the match against Napoli, then we will dedicate ourselves to the derby against Sampdoria."
