Juve, does Bernardo prefer Barça?

Bernardo Silva is preparing to leave Manchester City and remains one of the profiles most closely followed by Juventus for the new technical era entrusted to Luciano Spalletti. The Portuguese playmaker, set to leave on a free transfer, however seems mainly inclined toward Barcelona.

In an interview with The Athletic, the player explained that he wants to keep playing at the highest level, also stressing how his family’s well-being will be decisive in choosing his next destination. Meanwhile, the player’s agent, Jorge Mendes, is reportedly already working on contacts with the Blaugrana, while in Turin they are said to be preparing a major offer to try to bring the Portuguese star to Italy.

Milan, the new sporting director from the RedBird universe!

At Milan, decisive weeks are looming to define the future of the club’s sporting department. With Igli Tare’s departure now seemingly imminent, other executive roles are also still under discussion, and any final evaluation will be postponed until the end of the season, when the club will take stock of the league campaign and plan for next year.

According to Gianlucadimarzio.com, among the profiles being followed by Gerry Cardinale for the sporting director role is also Viktor Bezhani, a current executive at Toulouse, a club within the RedBird universe. The Albanian has stood out in recent years above all for his management of young talents.

Inter, fewer and fewer doubts about Pepo

Inter continue to reflect on the future of their goalkeeping position, and Pepo Martinez’s recent performances have reportedly strengthened the club’s confidence in the Spanish goalkeeper. Initially brought in as an alternative to Sommer, the former Genoa man is increasingly winning over the Inter environment thanks to the personality and reliability he has shown whenever called upon.

According to Sky Sport, within the club the idea is growing of promoting Martinez as a possible first-choice goalkeeper for the future. An important assessment that could also influence the club’s next transfer decisions, with Inter in that case potentially able to allocate the €30 million needed to sign Vicario to another target, perhaps in midfield.

Napoli, release clause emerges in Højlund’s contract

Rasmus Højlund continues to be a central figure in Napoli’s project, with the club strongly counting on him for the coming seasons as well. The Danish striker, who arrived from Manchester United, is considered a strategic investment on whom the Azzurri intend to build continuity and the future.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the former Atalanta player’s contract includes a release clause set at around €85 million, but it can only be activated from the summer of 2027 onward and is valid exclusively for foreign clubs. A condition that, in effect, strengthens Napoli’s position in the short and medium term, giving the club significant control over the player’s future.

Roma, Koné offered abroad!

Manu Koné remains a name in Roma’s transfer thinking, especially with a view to possible sales linked to the need to balance the books. The French midfielder, already close to leaving the capital a year ago, continues to attract strong interest.

According to Matteo Moretto, Koné was reportedly offered to Atlético Madrid through market intermediaries, but the Spanish club’s response is said not to have been positive at this stage. The colchoneros, in fact, are focusing on other priorities to strengthen the midfield and have not currently included the Roma player among their main targets.

Lazio without goalkeepers! Motta also out

It won’t be an easy derby for Lazio, who are already heading into it with rock-bottom morale after the Coppa Italia final defeat against Inter.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Sarri loses Motta to a muscle problem. The young goalkeeper, who arrived in January and immediately became the starter because of Provedel’s injury, will be replaced by Furlanetto.

Fiorentina, 2 doubts for Vanoli

Kean will not be available against Juventus (here is the squad list for the match) while Gudmundsson is included: Vanoli therefore has two doubts to resolve

As reported by La Nazione, Brescianini is pushing Ndour in midfield, while in attack Solomon is ahead of Gudmundsson, who is still not at his best.
