LAFC winger Brian Rodriguez is attracting interest from Sampdoria, confirmed his agent.

The former Penarol player will turn 20 later this month, having been signed by LAFC for €10m.

“I am doing everything to take him to Europe, particularly Italy, as he is a champion," agent Pablo Bentancourt told Sampdorianews.net.

“He reminds me of Ruben Sosa, a former Inter and Lazio player, in a modern vein.

"Sampdoria are very interested."
