Juventus, Milik leaving in January?

Arek Milik has been out for practically 500 days: according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, his recovery timeline remains uncertain and his absence could continue.

Therefore, looking ahead to January, the Bianconeri will consider two possible solutions: a loan, in the hope the player can regain consistency, or an early termination of his contract, which currently expires in 2027.

Milan, January move for Joe Gomez

As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Milan are considering entering the market in January to strengthen the defense. The target remains the one that slipped away in the summer: Joe Gomez.

The 1997-born Liverpool player stayed at Anfield more due to the team’s needs than personal choice, and Milan’s interest is unchanged. His limited playing time across the Premier League, Champions League and domestic cups could facilitate the deal in the coming months.

Inter, interest in Robinho Jr denied

In recent days, Robinho Jr.’s name has been linked to Inter: the 2007-born youngster (son of the former Milan and Manchester City player) is considered one of Santos’ top talents.

Fabrizio Romano, however, denies the rumored talks: there is no real interest from the Nerazzurri. Inter have simply scouted him, as they routinely do with many prospects.

Moreover, Santos have secured the player with a €100 million release clause, confirming their intention to keep him in the medium term.

Napoli, Politano and Buongiorno return and Neres to start

After starting against Genoa, the Brazilian is ready to play from the start—helped by Politano not being at 100%, though he and Buongiorno have recovered—for the next match against Torino.

As La Gazzetta dello Sport writes, Antonio Conte intends to deploy him in his 4-1-4-1, alternating him between the right and left flanks depending on tactical needs.

Roma, Ferguson: “The fans are crazy”

From the Ireland national team camp, Evan Ferguson spoke to RTE Sport: “The end of last season was difficult. I thought about it and decided I wanted to leave to try something new, since I’d been in England for 4/5 years. Then Roma came along and it’s hard to say no to a club like that.”

The forward also talked about the Giallorossi fans: “I knew it was a big club, but when you arrive you really realize it’s much bigger than you think. The fans are crazy.”

Lazio, Basic considered as a winger

Lazio’s string of injuries could force Sarri to play Basic out wide: an extreme solution but one already tested in a summer friendly with the Primavera.

According to Corriere dello Sport, given the recent emergencies, Basic could be useful on the flank because the alternatives have issues. Pedro might struggle as an out-and-out winger from the first minute, Isaksen is back from the national team but is more effective on the right, while Noslin hasn’t convinced the coach.

Fiorentina, a new role for Fagioli?

As written by the Corriere Fiorentino, Stefano Pioli is considering a change of position for Nicolò Fagioli, who could be deployed as a trequartista in a 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-1-2.

Despite the competition in the attacking midfield area, the coach’s goal is to relaunch a player who cost €16 million in the summer. Just 28 minutes on the pitch in the last three matches aren’t enough; the club also needs to enhance a costly and promising asset.
