After the success of Napoli over Milan in the Super Cup, with the controversial aftermath related to the Allegri-Oriali case, the focus now shifts to the second semifinal. Tonight, Bologna and Inter will compete for a place in the final act of the competition, with the challenge against Antonio Conte's team at stake.
The trophy is not the only thing at stake: the winner in Riyadh will secure 11 million euros, a significant prize that could directly impact the January transfer market strategies, especially for clubs like Inter and Napoli, who need to strengthen their squads.
And speaking of the transfer market: here are all the most important news of the day.
Juventus and Roma could be involved in a potential midfielder swap. According to Tuttosport, the Giallorossi are showing interest in Weston McKennie, whose contract expires in 2026.

The Bianconeri, on the other hand, have set their sights on Bryan Cristante, whose agreement with Roma expires in 2027. If the deal materializes, the two players could soon "swap jerseys," providing a twist in the upcoming summer transfer market.
The Allegri-Oriali incident will not go unnoticed. During the Super Cup semifinal between Napoli and Milan, the Rossoneri coach was targeted by federal inspectors for a verbal attack on Gabriele Oriali, an episode not reported in the referee's report.

The Sports Judge is now tasked with evaluating Allegri's conduct. The code provides for two possible sanctions: a fine or, in more serious cases, a suspension to be served in the league. According to the Gazzetta, the Milan coach is expected to get away with a fine.
Inter is already looking ahead to the winter transfer window in January. The need for a reinforcement in the defensive flanks is evident, especially after the significant absence of Dumfries and the back pain of Carlos Augusto.

The main Nerazzurri target is Marco Palestra, owned by Atalanta but currently on loan at Cagliari. However, the request from the Dea, about 40 million euros, remains high and difficult for Inter to sustain. This is reported by Tuttosport.
Napoli continues its preparation for the Italian Super Cup final against the winner between Bologna and Inter, while keeping an eye on the transfer market. With a squad heavily affected by injuries, the club is seeking reinforcements, especially in the midfield.

The hottest name is Kobbie Mainoo, a young midfielder from Manchester United, who according to Corriere dello Sport has already given his ok for a move in January. However, the issue with the English club remains unresolved, as they are still hesitant due to numerous absences related to the African Cup of Nations.
The future of Paulo Dybala remains uncertain. The Joya's contract with Roma expires at the end of the season and, despite rumors linking him to Boca Juniors, a departure in January seems unlikely at the moment.

According to Matteo Moretto, both the club and the player are inclined to carry the agreement through to its natural expiration. The renewal remains distant: the main issue is the salary of about 8 million euros per season, a figure that complicates any potential agreement.
On the eve of the match against Cremonese, Ivan Provedel spoke to the club's official channels, giving an interview in the Match Program. His words reflect both an assessment and a forward-looking perspective.

“Being here for four seasons is a great source of pride,” said the Biancocelesti goalkeeper. “I hope to stay for a long time: every day I will give my best to prove I deserve this jersey.” A clear message that confirms the increasingly strong bond between Provedel and Lazio.
The situation at Fiorentina remains extremely delicate, and the defeat against Lausanne in the Conference League has further exacerbated the difficulties. The negative period makes targeted interventions in the January transfer market increasingly likely, with particular attention to the defensive department.

According to Daniele Longo, an interesting opportunity could arise from the Premier League. Among the profiles being closely monitored is Diego Coppola, currently at Brighton: initial contacts have already been made.
