Juventus, Bernardo Silva and 3 More Free Transfers

According to Tuttosport, Juventus is preparing for the summer transfer market with a clear strategy: quality reinforcements on free transfers to build Luciano Spalletti’s squad.

The main dream is Bernardo Silva, set to leave Manchester City after nine years. There have been exploratory contacts with agent Jorge Mendes, but the salary issue of €10 million remains.

Not only that: the Bianconeri are also following Marcos Senesi (negotiations ongoing, but there’s a gap on salary), Kessie, and Lorenzo Pellegrini, the latter favored by his relationship with Spalletti and the complicated situation at Roma.

Milan, an Obstacle for Retegui

According to MilanNews, Mateo Retegui is back on Milan’s radar as a possible successor to Giroud. The striker, currently at Al-Qadisiya, represents an ideal profile for his characteristics: presence in the box, ability to link up play, and adaptability to various attacking systems.

The problem remains financial: Retegui earns around €20 million net per season, figures out of reach for Milan. The only solution would be a drastic reduction in his salary, with a contract of about €5 million plus bonuses. And this is precisely the real obstacle to the deal.

Inter, Bastoni and Lautaro Close to Returning: Positive Signs

According to Sky Sport, Inter took a day off before returning to work ahead of the match against Fiorentina. Encouraging signs are coming in: Hakan Calhanoglu is 100% recovered and Alessandro Bastoni could rejoin the group as early as Friday’s training session.

Lautaro Martinez is also hoping to be called up, having intensified his personalized training, although his presence remains unlikely. Henrikh Mkhitaryan, however, is a certain absentee, with his return expected after the break.

Napoli, Does Juve Want Spinazzola?

Juventus is also active on the incoming front and is considering a possible return of Leonardo Spinazzola, who could be released from Napoli at the end of the season on a free transfer. As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio for TUTTOmercatoWEB.com, the Bianconeri are exploring this option while also working on contract renewals.

Specifically, Napoli has offered a one-year extension with an option, while Juve would be ready to guarantee a two-year deal, closer to the player’s requests. However, out of fairness, Spinazzola intends to wait for the decision of the Azzurri club first, which now must decide whether to make a new offer or let him go.

Roma, Gasperini Against the Medical Staff

According to Corriere della Sera, tensions are emerging within Roma regarding the management of Manu Kone’s injury, which caused him to miss the first leg against Bologna. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini is said to have had a heated confrontation with the medical staff.

In the coming days, a meeting is scheduled with Ryan Friedkin to discuss both transfer market strategies and internal organization. The discussion could be decisive in restoring balance and clarifying responsibilities.

Lazio, Lotito Raises the Stakes: Doubled Bonus for Coppa Italia

According to Corriere dello Sport, Claudio Lotito is putting everything on the Coppa Italia to save Lazio’s season. The president has promised the players a doubled bonus in case of victory.

The reward, initially set at €2 million, has been increased to at least double. With the league campaign struggling, the Cup represents the only route to the Europa League and Supercoppa, and within Lazio the objective has become a top priority.

Fiorentina, Commisso Remembers Barone and His Father Rocco

Fiorentina marked the second anniversary of Joe Barone’s passing, with a message also shared by president Rocco Commisso on social media.

The Viola president also dedicated a thought to his father Rocco, who passed away on January 16, publishing content for Father’s Day and paying tribute to two fundamental figures in his personal and professional life.
