Sampdoria are interested in the services of Hoffenheim right-back Luis Advincula, who impressed for Peru at the Copa America.

The 25-year-old Peruvian international signed for the Bundesliga outfit in 2013, but spent last season on loan at Portuguese club Vitoria Setubal, clocking up 26 appearances.

Tuttomercatoweb report that Sampdoria have identified the flyer as the perfect replacement for Lorenzo De Silvestri, who faces the first few months of the season out injured.

The Blucerchiati will have to compete with Spanish outfit Rayo Vallecano however, who were also impressed with Advincula’s performances at last months Copa America.

Advincula started his career at Juan Aurich before moving to Peruvian powerhouses Sporting Cristal in 2010, which then led to his transfer to Europe.
