Have anybody a suggestion?
Of course, it has to be fully supported (joystick+rumble) by Linux, and i'd like it to be wired.
I've seen this on amazon:
https://www.amazon.it/JAMSWALL-Controller-Joystick-Compatibile-Microsoft/dp/B07Q6BWV5N
https://www.amazon.it/Controller-Joystick-controller-ergonomico-migliorato/dp/B07Q4SD1NB
..but Linux support is not mentioned.
Any advice?
Thanks!

I bought this one last year. I am not a big gamer, but it was really worth buying for the game Overlord 2. Some parts are a nightmare with mouse. It worked (works) like a charm.
I use Ubuntu Mate 18.04.
Edit: Sorry, just saw that the sale ended a few months ago and a different model is listed there now.

The ONE issue you may encounter a game is it not recognizing the device:vender USB ID. Dirt Rally specifically for me required me to manually add the controller to a .json file where all supported wheels/controllers where listed by USB device ID.
