Kessie on Juventus, McTominay fee and Soulé replies: today's market 🤑 | OneFootball

The Italian market has been shaken by the arrival of Gonçalo Ramos (who enters the TOP 10 most expensive signings in Serie A) while at the World Cup, Bielsa's angry reaction to the elimination of his Uruguay caused a stir, along with the announcement that Messi will start on the bench.

Now let's look at today's most important news on Italy's biggest clubs.

Juventus, Kessie “promotes himself”

Franck Kessie, interviewed by La Gazzetta dello Sport, spoke about Juventus and the transfer rumors involving him: "Juventus? Yes, yes, people are talking about it, I saw. I'm only thinking about the World Cup, but I'll add one thing: I'm a really great signing. Fit, at the World Cup and above all a free agent, hard to ask for more! That's why so many want me, and they're right!"

"But for another 5 days I'm an Al Ahli player from Jeddah. After the round of 16 match we'll meet and I'll tell you something. My agent is working, there are lots of calls, and I repeat, it's normal: I would sign myself too in these physical and financial conditions!"

In the meantime, Juve will have to register capital gains as soon as possible: according to the Corriere dello Sport, Miretti (15 million), Di Gregorio (15 million), Cabal (book value of 7 million) and Gatti (20/25 million) are up for sale.

Milan, is Hjulmand further away?

Atletico Madrid were interested in Gonçalo Ramos (according to Fabrizio Romano) but Milan's offer beat the colchoneros to it, and now they are targeting another player also on Milan's radar: Morten Hjulmand.

The player developed by Ruben Amorim at Sporting is valued at 45 million euros: according to Marca and Matteo Moretto Atletico Madrid are ready to submit an offer in the coming weeks.

Inter, renewal for Pio and F. Carboni on the way out

As reported by Matteo Moretto on YouTube, Inter have opened talks over Pio Esposito's renewal: "He has a contract with Inter until 2030 and earns 1.1/1.2 million net per season, but I can confirm that Inter have started talking with the player's agent, Mario Giuffredi, to try to improve and extend Pio Esposito's contract. There is really great harmony between the parties."

On the outgoing front, meanwhile, Franco Carboni is very close to Parma: "I am told of a possible 4-year contract for Carboni at Parma, we'll see when the deal can be completed but there is a willingness to get it over the line."

Napoli, McTominay-Real? Difficult and huge asking price

According to Il Mattino, The Scottish Sun (citing Italian sources) and the Corriere del Mezzogiorno: Mourinho and Real Madrid appreciate Scott McTominay's profile. However, the player is happy in the city and is discussing a contract renewal with Napoli: the club values him at 80 million euros.

The rumor is backed up by RAI journalist Ciro Venerato: "McTominay is appreciated by Real Madrid, but he will stay at Napoli. He should renew with the Azzurri, the Campania club have made him an interesting proposal."

Roma, Soulé says “No” to Saudi Arabia

As written by the Corriere dello Sport, Al-Ahli had made an approach for Greenwood, who turned down the proposal. The Saudi club then reportedly turned to Matias Soulé, who is on his way out of Roma.

But the Argentine does not want to go to the Saudi Pro League, according to Repubblica; his goal is to stay in Europe's top leagues and earn a call-up to the national team.

Lazio, Peruzzi returns as Technical Director

According to Il Messaggero, Angelo Peruzzi is very close to becoming Lazio's new Technical Director. It would be a return, given that he previously served as club manager from 2016 to 2021.

The former Biancocelesti goalkeeper has already met with Lotito and is expected to sign a one-year contract. His excellent relationship with Gennaro Gattuso played an important role in the negotiations.

Fiorentina, the preferred options out wide

As reported by La Nazione, Fiorentina have placed two names at the top of their transfer wishlist: Noa Lang of Napoli and Johan Bakayoko of Leipzig. However, both deals are difficult in terms of cost.

Cancellieri remains an outside option: a cheaper alternative, but not a priority for Paratici and the Viola club.
