We will of course continue to follow the transfer market as well, which has now entered its hottest phase: there are only eleven days left until the window closes. So let’s take a look at the most important news of the day.
Mattia Perin’s future remains one of the main transfer topics at Juventus. The goalkeeper has ended up on Palermo’s radar, but in the last few hours the move that could take him to Sicily has slowed significantly.
According to TuttoJuve.com, Juventus have set financial terms considered too high by Palermo. The next 48 hours will be decisive: the Rosanero will have to understand whether there is room to reopen talks or turn to another goalkeeper to hand over to Filippo Inzaghi.
Milan are stepping up their search for a new center-back and have reportedly identified Rúben Dias as the main target to strengthen the department. The Portuguese defender, tied to Manchester City until 2029, could become part of the squad renewal process launched by the English club.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Rossoneri are assessing the conditions of the deal and have already opened talks. Jorge Mendes, the defender’s agent and a key Milan contact, could play an important role, while City would be willing to listen to offers for the 1997-born player.
Stankovic’s situation could become one of the key topics in Inter’s final days of the transfer window. The player risks finding less space, and there is no shortage of clubs interested in taking him on loan.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, among the possible destinations in Italy there is also Torino, ready to offer him greater continuity. For now, however, Stankovic has shown no openness to leaving: his wish remains to continue at Inter.
Lucca’s future at Napoli could come back into question in the final weeks of the transfer window. Brought in as a major investment, the striker has so far not fully lived up to expectations and currently sits behind Hojlund in the attacking pecking order.
According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Napoli do not want to waste the investment made in the center-forward, and for this reason his stay remains the starting scenario. However, the final stretch of the window could reshuffle the cards and open the door to a sale.
The transfer business of Roma and Milan could become intertwined at the end of the window. The Giallorossi are looking for more reinforcements for Gasperini, while the Rossoneri continue to follow Soulé, for whom Roma’s asking price is said to be around €35 million plus bonuses.
According to La Repubblica, contacts between the two clubs have resumed and a swap deal could also be on the table. Leao and Nkunku remain possible options for Roma, with the Frenchman particularly appreciated by Gasperini: Soulé could therefore become a piece used to try to build the deal.
With the deal for Bamba Dieng now definitively off, Lazio continue to keep Esposito in mind to strengthen the attacking department. The Cagliari striker remains among the profiles being evaluated by the Biancocelesti, even if he is not the out-and-out center-forward requested by Gattuso.
According to Il Messaggero, the key could be Dia’s departure: if he leaves, Lazio would be able to accelerate for Esposito. The structure of the deal could also help, with Cagliari willing to discuss a loan with an option to buy.
Mandragora’s future at Fiorentina could become a hot topic in the final days of the transfer window. At the moment there are reportedly no advanced negotiations, but two Serie A clubs have begun gathering information on the Viola midfielder.
According to ViolaNews, Genoa and Bologna have made their first exploratory approaches for Mandragora, identified as a possible reinforcement for midfield. The situation remains fluid, and the 1997-born player could therefore end up on Fiorentina’s list of possible departures.
