Juventus, Guido Rodriguez takes the lead

Juventus aims to strengthen the midfield in January and the profile of Guido Rodriguez is becoming the favorite: in recent hours, his agents and the club have intensified contacts, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport and Sportitalia.

The player seems to like the destination and the price set by West Ham appears affordable: about 10 million euros.

Milan, Cherif if Nkunku leaves + Dier proposed

If Nkunku (who is very much liked by Fenerbahce) were to leave, Milan could target Sidiki Cherif: a 2006-born forward from Angers. The player is a name the club would have tried to acquire during the next summer anyway.

In mid-December, according to Tuttosport, there were talks between the player's agents and Milan, also because there is competition from some German clubs for Cherif.

In defense, Dier from Monaco has been proposed: an alternative route to Gatti, Kim, and Skriniar, who remain almost impossible profiles to acquire in January.

Inter, offer for Mlacic

As revealed by journalist Pasquale Guarro of calciomercato.com, Inter has made an official offer of 5.5 million for Branimir Mlacic: a 2007-born defender from Hajduk Split.

If the operation goes through, the idea would be to leave Mlacic on loan at the Croatian club until June, and then integrate him into the team during the summer training camp.

Matteo Moretto adds that the player has not yet decided his future: Barcelona had also shown interest in the past. However, new contacts between the Nerazzurri and the player are expected.

Napoli, Mainoo deal difficult and Lucca-Benfica contacts

The dismissal of Amorim from Manchester United further complicates Mainoo's departure from the English club, reveals Matteo Moretto: "It's a situation that is becoming more complicated, because for Kobbie Mainoo the real problem was not United, but the coach.

"Amorim never saw Mainoo as an indispensable player for United and never made a secret of it. Now that Amorim is leaving, this could impact Napoli, who have long talked with the agents, always had a significant connection with the player and his agents, but never got United's approval to let him go."

On the outgoing front, Di Marzio confirms new contacts between Napoli and Benfica for Lorenzo Lucca: the Portuguese club would like the forward on loan.

Roma, interest in Oosterwolde and Romano on loan

Besides the names of Vavro and Dragusin, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, a new profile has emerged for Roma's defense: Jayden Oosterwolde, a 2001-born Dutch center-back from Fenerbahce.

It would be a return to Italy for Oosterwolde, who played a year and a half at Parma from January 2022 to the summer of 2023, when he was then sold for 6 million to the Turkish club.

On the way out, the loan of Alessandro Romano to Spezia is almost finalized, writes Alfredo Pedullà.

Lazio, Basic proposed to Roma

According to Il Tempo, the negotiation for Toma Basic's renewal is currently stalled due to the gap between demand and offer. This situation has pushed the Croatian midfielder's entourage to explore alternative solutions in the market.

Among the options considered, there is also a survey with Roma: the agent would have proposed the player to Massara for possible inclusion in the squad at the end of the season or already in January. However, at the moment, no concrete interest signals have come from Trigoria.

Fiorentina, Fazzini stays and 2 midfield targets

As La Gazzetta dello Sport writes, the negotiation between Fazzini and Lecce is not taking off: the player would like to stay in Florence during this market window.

On the incoming market, Gianluca Di Marzio highlights that there remains strong interest in Brescianini (with competition from Cagliari and Genoa) and for Samardzic, the latter, however, is considered non-transferable by Palladino.
