Another European week with Italian teams engaged in the Champions League playoffs, while others are left watching and waiting for the next Serie A matchday.
Below, as usual, are the most important news stories of the day.

Juventus will have to do without Jonathan David against Galatasaray, and Luciano Spalletti is considering solutions to make up for the Canadian's absence.
The most logical choice points to Openda, who is looking for minutes and redemption. However, keep an eye on creative solutions with Yildiz or McKennie as a false nine. At the moment, Openda is the favorite.

On the night of Inter-Juventus, Massimiliano Allegri and Adriano Galliani had dinner together, in an evening reconstructed by Tuttosport. The two worked together in the past at Milan and have remained friends.
Besides reminiscing about the past, did they also talk about the future? Last summer, Galliani's return to Milan was very close, but in the end, nothing materialized.

Okan Buruk, coach of Galatasaray, spoke at a press conference ahead of the match against Juventus and also commented on Hakan Calhanoglu, Inter's midfielder.
"I've known Hakan for fifteen years, he's a Gala fan and our supporters would like him to come here. Let's just say... we're waiting for him with open arms.”

Napoli is working on the renewal of Amir Rrahmani. The Kosovan center-back is the pillar of the Neapolitan defense and, according to Tuttosport, the club is close to reaching an agreement for the extension.
The former Verona player will sign a contract until 2028 with an option for 2029 at €3.8 million per season.

Francesco Totti's return to Roma is becoming more and more of a reality, and the man himself confirmed it in a comment to Sky.
“Yes, we're talking and I even had dinner with Gasperini.”

Lazio can smile as good news comes from the infirmary ahead of the match against Cagliari next weekend.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Basic is on track for recovery since his problem wasn't actually serious, but the midfielder just needed a bit of rest.

Massimo Ambrosini, former footballer and now commentator for DAZN, spoke about Fabiano Parisi and the exaggeration after the contact with Addai.
“What Parisi did was try to cheat. You can't do that, it's unacceptable for someone to try to deceive everyone so blatantly, thinking then to get away with it. If the referee had fallen for it and sent off the poor Como player, he'd be laughing now. He must be punished, because punishment acts as a deterrent for anyone who wants to try the same thing in the future.”
