The Leeds United and Aston Villa-linked striker has spoken about his future.
Felipe Avenatti has told Ternana News that nobody from the Italian club has been in touch with him regarding a contract extension.
The 23-year-old hitman was linked with Leeds United and Aston Villa during the summer transfer window.
The Uruguayan is out of contract with the Serie B side in the summer, and the Italian club could cash in on him during the winter if an extension is unlikely.
And the man himself has said that nobody from his club has touched base with him about staying in Terni beyond this summer.
“I have not yet heard from anyone. Let’s see. Now, though, the only thing I think about is the next game,” he told Ternana News.
Avenatti, who has netted six times in nine starts for Ternana, was reported by Tuttomercatoweb to be a target of Aston Villa in July, though Italian manager Roberto Di Matteo – who has since been replaced by Steve Bruce – was in charge at the time.
The Villans also spent over £25 million on strikers Ross McCormack and Jonathan Kodjia.
Leeds, meanwhile, made an offer for the marksman in the summer, according to Corriere dello Sport (cited by talkSPORT), whose report was released on July 21 – after Kemar Roofe and Marcus Antonsson were recruited.
Manager Garry Monk did not go on to sign another striker which, if the reports are accurate, may suggest that the 38-year-old remains in the market for another centre-forward.
