In the meantime, Serie A continues to deliver surprises amid the coaching carousel and the transfer market. Let’s take a look at the biggest news of the day.

Juve, Icardi back in fashion

Juventus are once again closely evaluating Mauro Icardi ahead of the summer transfer window. As reported by La Stampa, the Argentine striker could become a real opportunity for the Bianconeri, especially if Dusan Vlahovic’s future lies away from Turin.

The Galatasaray forward could in fact soon part ways with the Turkish club, a scenario that would make a low-cost deal even more attractive. International experience, knowledge of Serie A, and a favorable contract situation are all factors pushing Juventus to keep a close eye on the situation. 

Milan, Pavlovic is not for sale but...

Strahinja Pavlovic was one of the few bright spots in Milan’s season, which is why the Rossoneri see him as a key piece on which to build the future. However, according to Gazzetta dello Sport, interest from the Premier League should not be underestimated. 

Several English clubs are closely following the Serbian center-back and, in the event of a particularly significant offer, Milan could find themselves facing a difficult decision. For now, Pavlovic is considered untouchable, but English interest is just around the corner. 

Inter, what future for Stankovic?

Aleksander Stankovic continues to make headlines after an excellent season on loan at Club Brugge. The Serbian midfielder, who came through Inter’s youth academy, has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs. As journalist Fabrizio Biasin explained on SportMediaset, Inter are at a crossroads: cash in on a substantial capital gain or bring the player back to Milan and gradually integrate him into the technical project.

According to the journalist, the second option would be the more exciting one, with Stankovic potentially becoming one of the key figures in Inter’s midfield in the future.

Napoli, Alisson Santos redemption one step away

Napoli appear to have already resolved all doubts over Alisson Santos’ future. According to Portuguese newspaper A Bola, as relayed by CalcioNapoli24, the Partenopei are ready to exercise their option to buy the Brazilian winger who arrived from Sporting in January.

The club have reportedly already informed the Portuguese side of their decision, confirming their willingness to pay the €16.5 million set out in the agreement, in addition to the €3.5 million already paid for the loan. The 2002-born player’s second half of the season fully convinced both the management and coaching staff, who see Alisson as an important asset for the future as well.

Roma, Freuler still an option for Gasp

Remo Freuler’s name continues to be linked with Roma ahead of next season. The Swiss midfielder, tied to Bologna by a contract expiring on June 30, is a profile particularly appreciated by Gian Piero Gasperini, who previously coached and developed him during their time together at Atalanta.

According to ForzaRoma.info, the Rossoblù are working on a renewal, but the situation remains open and no final decision has yet been made. What’s more, the strong relationship between Freuler and Gasperini could favor a move to the capital.

Lazio, Esposito back on the radar

Lazio are looking ahead and could make significant moves in attack. Among the names being followed most closely is Sebastiano Esposito, the 2002-born striker coming off a spell at Cagliari, where he recorded 7 goals and 6 assists across the league and Coppa Italia. According to Il Tempo, the player is one of the profiles most appreciated by sporting director Fabiani and has long been on president Lotito’s radar.

Torino and Como are also said to be interested in the striker, but any move from the Biancocelesti will depend on the club’s decisions regarding the attacking department: the track could gather pace especially if Lazio decide not to make Daniel Maldini’s move permanent or to sell one of Dia or Noslin.

Fiorentina, defense to strengthen but stars staying

Fiorentina have already begun moving in the market to strengthen their defense. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the name at the top of the Viola management’s list is Viery, considered the main target for the back line, with Obert and Comert representing the most concrete alternatives.

At the same time, the club do not appear inclined to overhaul the group already at their disposal: Luca Ranieri and Marin Pongracic are considered key pillars of the project, while Pietro Comuzzo is also expected to stay unless particularly significant offers arrive. Daniele Rugani’s situation is different, however, as he was not signed permanently and will return to Juventus at the end of his loan spell.
