There are two weeks left until the start of the winter session, but the teams are already working to secure the most anticipated reinforcements. Below are the day's main news.

👀 Juve, reinforcement arriving in midfield?

Juventus continues to focus on quality young players to strengthen Luciano Spalletti's midfield. Ahead of the winter market, one of the names gaining ground is Morten Frendrup, a Danish midfielder born in 2001 and a key player for Genoa.

According to La Repubblica, the operation could come to life in the coming weeks. The Rossoblu club does not rule out a negotiation even during the season, provided that offers deemed adequate are received. 

🫶 Thiago Silva and the romantic return to Milan

The possible return of Thiago Silva to Milan continues to captivate fans, but for now, it remains more of an idea than a concrete path. TMW clarifies that there are small openings, but without a real intention from the club to turn the idea into a negotiation. 

The management's position, with Igli Tare at the forefront, is quite clear: a profile like Thiago Silva cannot be considered a mere alternative. Without European cups and with a defense that is working, Milan does not want to disrupt the balance of the Tomori-Gabbia-Pavlovic trio. Therefore, despite the age and the RedBird profile, the approach remains one of caution: door ajar.

🧤 Inter looks for post Sommer

Inter is already looking to the future and planning a true revolution in goal for next summer. Sommer's cycle is set to end, and according to the Nerazzurri management, the future will not involve Josep Martinez, considered more of a second choice than a first.

According to Tuttosport, at the top of the list is Guglielmo Vicario, goalkeeper of Tottenham, who might consider a return to Serie A. But on Marotta and Ausilio's notebook, there is also Noah Atubolu, born in 2002 from Freiburg. Among already established certainties and future bets, the post Sommer era has already begun.

🔥 Striker on the move: Juve considers it

Juventus sets its sights on Lorenzo Lucca. According to TMW, the Bianconeri are looking for a reinforcement in attack after Vlahovic's injury, and the former Napoli forward could represent an interesting solution.

The situation, however, is not immediate: Napoli would need to redeem Lucca from Udinese before the summer to consider a loan with an option to buy by the Bianconeri in January.

✍️ The renewal situation at Roma

At Roma, contract renewals remain a delicate issue. Sporting director Frederic Massara has decided to postpone any discussions until next spring, avoiding any rush due to the constraints imposed by financial fair play.

According to Corriere dello Sport, the most complex case concerns Paulo Dybala, the highest-paid player on the team with about 8 million net per season: any renewal hypothesis will have to start from at least halved figures. A similar situation for Lorenzo Pellegrini, who earns almost 6.5 million annually including bonuses.

The situation is different for Zeki Çelik, appreciated for his reliability and versatility, whose renewal seems practically certain, while for Stephan El Shaarawy, his stay will depend on his willingness to accept a more marginal role in the team.

⚔️ Lazio prepares for the market derby

Lazio is preparing for the derby with Roma also in the market, focusing on Giacomo Raspadori. The former talent of Sassuolo and Napoli is struggling to find space at Atletico Madrid, and a return to Serie A could guarantee him precious minutes and continuity.

According to Repubblica, Lazio would like him as a starting striker, possibly sacrificing Castellanos, while at Roma Raspadori could play both as a central forward and as support to the striker, offering greater tactical flexibility to Gian Piero Gasperini.

🔙 Goodbye Dzeko: reunion with a friend?

Edin Dzeko's adventure at Fiorentina seems to be nearing its end, and the future of the Bosnian striker remains shrouded in mystery. In Serie A, there are no shortage of options, as highlighted by Corriere dello Sport.

In January, the former Inter and City striker could change scenery and end his career at another club. Indeed, Genoa of his friend De Rossi seems to have shown interest, while the Cagliari option remains more remote.
