Cagliari have identified Winks as the replacement for Gianluca Gaetano, who was announced as a new Atalanta player earlier this week. Winks already played in Serie A during the 2022-23 season, making 20 appearances for Sampdoria. The Englishman, a former Tottenham midfielder, has scored two goals in 150 Premier League appearances. He’s been playing for Leicester City since 2023, but the Foxes were relegated to the English League One last season. Cagliari, on the other hand, secured Serie A survival with one game to spare in 2025-26.
