Sampdoria star Dennis Praet was a transfer target of Newcastle and Everton but both Premier League clubs failed to wrap up a deal for the Belgian who eventually remained at the Marassi.
Praet has a € 25 million release clause but even if any club would have trigger it, Praet would have still chosen to stay in Genoa.
“I didn’t want to leave”, the former Anderlecht star told Belgian paper Humo.
“I thought something would have changed here, I though the manager would have given me a new role. I love this club and the president is a special person. He has a great approach with footballers and that’s a huge difference compared to Anderlecht.”
“I know Sampdoria received some offers for me but I did’t even talk with any other club as there was no agreement between them. I’ve never played in the Premier League but I’d be happy to go there one day. I am grateful to Sampdoria and I want to replay their trust scoring goals and making assists.”

Technically, Antonio Romei is ‘only’ the lawyer of Sampdoria. Truth is, Romei’s position at Sampdoria is more powerful than that being Massimo Ferrero’s right-hand man. Romei released an interview with Il Secolo XIX to explain the position of the club regarding January sales.
The interview should concern Everton and Newcastle as both Premier League clubs are being linked with signing Dennis Praet who has a € 25 million release clause included in his deal and is one of the most important players of the blucerchiati.
“We will not sell any of our stars in January”, Romei said.
“I think we will only make a few changes, nothing more. No big players will leave in the winter transfer window.”
The Belgian star also confirmed he is not considering a move away from the Marassi at the moment.

I’ve never played in the Premier League but I’d be happy to go there one day. I am grateful to Sampdoria and I want to replay their trust scoring goals and making assists”, Praet said yesterday
