The Italian teams take center stage in a negative way in the Champions League: Juve collapses 5-2 away at Galatasaray, while Dortmund scores two against Atalanta.
Despite these heavy defeats, other news is also making headlines in Italy: for the first time, in fact, there is talk of topics other than the Bastoni-Kalulu case. Here are yesterday’s most important news.
There may be a glimmer of hope for Dušan Vlahović’s future at Juventus. The Serbian striker’s contract renewal seemed complicated until a few weeks ago, but recent statements from Damien Comolli have reopened a scenario that seemed almost closed.

According to Daniele Longo, a meeting is expected in the coming days between the player’s agent and the Bianconeri management. The striker’s intention is to continue his adventure in Turin, a factor that could facilitate the advancement of talks between the parties.
The official statement from Serie A has confirmed a €10,000 fine for Igli Tare, sporting director of Milan, after the match against Pisa.

The disciplinary action was taken because he entered the pitch at the end of the match with the intent to aggressively contest the referee’s decisions, an episode that sparked further controversy after the game.
In a press conference on the eve of the match against Bodo/Glimt, Inter coach Cristian Chivu responded to criticism and Spalletti’s words: “We have to accept that criticism is part of this game, the team at the top is always the most hated… We need to stop being moralists.”

Regarding Hakan Calhanoglu’s condition, he explained that there is “a small problem” that could be resolved in a few days, while about the lineup he joked: “I know who will play but I won’t say.”
According to Il Mattino, Antonio Conte’s future at Napoli is not tied to results. The coach has a contract until 2027 with no exit penalties and a salary exceeding 7 million per year.

The lure of the Premier League, with Chelsea and Tottenham interested, won’t make him waver: Conte wants to complete the three-year cycle at Napoli, then any extension will be evaluated.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Francesco Totti is getting closer to a new adventure with Roma. He will not be sporting director nor technical director, but rather a sort of director of football strategies.

His role will also include being the club’s ambassador worldwide, attending draws, institutional events, and the 2027 centenary celebrations, an occasion in which the Friedkin ownership wants to make him the absolute protagonist.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Lazio is keeping contacts alive for Andres Gomez, winger from Vasco da Gama already followed in January. The failed transfer was due to the lack of departures among offensive players.

The Brazilian club, which redeemed him from Rennes for 4.5 million, aims to increase his value to spark a summer bidding war. Lazio continues to consider him a top target to complete their wingers’ department.
As reported, Daniele Rugani has declared himself ready for the match against Pisa, a key game for Fiorentina’s survival. Not included in the UEFA list, he will necessarily be used in the league.

The choice is between Rugani and Luca Ranieri, with Marin Pongracic considered hardly expendable. The final decision will be up to Paolo Vanoli in the coming days, ahead of a derby that could weigh heavily on the season.
