There is room for international football, but there is no shortage of news regarding the Italian teams, busy between matches and the transfer market ahead of the final commitments of the season and the summer window.

Juve, Pavlidis among the options for the attack

The striker market looks set to be lively, and one of the names on the rise is Vangelis Pavlidis, who has starred for Benfica. Signed in 2024 from AZ for 18 million, the Greek forward has seen his value soar to 35-40 million thanks to a goal-filled season.

According to TMW, the player is ready to make the definitive leap to a more competitive league and, besides the Premier League (currently the favorite destination), Juventus are also monitoring him closely.

The Bianconeri are in fact looking for a new first-choice center-forward for next season: much will depend on Vlahovic’s situation and transfer decisions, but Pavlidis represents a profile who is already ready and still has room for growth.

Milan, Lukaku offers himself

The most surprising name is Romelu Lukaku, who according to Tuttosport has offered himself to Milan after his split with Napoli. The idea intrigues Massimiliano Allegri, who has always been an admirer of physical, dominant strikers.

However, MilanNews has cooled the enthusiasm: recent fitness issues and above all his very high salary make the operation complicated. For now, it is more a suggestion than a concrete negotiation, but Milan are evaluating several profiles to rebuild the attack and Lukaku remains a name to keep in the background.

Inter, transfer derby for Koné?

Sassuolo midfielder Ismael Kone continues to win praise after a very solid season.

According to Matteo Moretto, Inter are also monitoring him. He is not the first choice, but he represents a concrete alternative should other options fail to materialize.

Milan remain the most interested club, but precisely for this reason a real transfer duel could emerge between the two Milan sides.

Napoli, Juanlu back in their sights

To strengthen the right flank, Napoli have turned their attention back to Sevilla’s Juanlu Sanchez.

According to the Corriere del Mezzogiorno, the 2002-born player is considered an ideal profile as an alternative to Giovanni Di Lorenzo: young, dynamic, and with good room for growth.

The negotiation is still at a preliminary stage, but the interest is concrete and could evolve quickly in the coming months.

Roma, double renewal already done

Gianluca Mancini and Bryan Cristante have renewed their contracts with Roma. According to Sky Sport, the two players have already extended the agreements that had previously been set to expire in 2027. 

At the moment, only the club’s official announcement through its official channels is missing to confirm the continuation of the partnership between the two players and Roma.

Lazio, more tickets for the final?

The atmosphere is red-hot among Lazio fans ahead of the Coppa Italia final.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, the roughly 25,000 tickets initially available were almost sold out in a very short time. However, several seats still remain in the sections reserved for Inter.

If they remain unsold, part of them could be redistributed, further increasing Lazio’s presence at the stadium.

Fiorentina, Fortini renewal stalled

Fiorentina must resolve the issue regarding the renewal of Niccolò Fortini, born in 2006 and targeted by Roma, as soon as possible.

As reported by the newspaper La Nazione, there have been no substantial developments in recent weeks regarding the contract extension.

According to the Tuscan outlet, if the renewal does not arrive, Paratici will be forced to sell him in the summer to avoid losing him on a free transfer.
