Messi’s hat-trick against Algeria stole the spotlight (and who knows, maybe he could have his say in the Ballon d’Or race too), but the transfer market remains one of the most important topics for Serie A.
Let’s take a look at today’s biggest transfer news.
Juventus, Spalletti would like Salah
Juventus need players of real quality, and after failed moves for Alisson and Bernardo Silva, Luciano Spalletti would welcome Mohamed Salah’s arrival in black and white.
According to La Stampa, the relationship between coach and player is excellent, but the costs remain prohibitive (which is why Roma reportedly turned down the idea of signing him): in fact, the salary guaranteed to him by the Saudi Pro League is unmatched.
Milan, Amorim suggests Ugarte
After Eintracht Frankfurt’s slowdown over sporting director Markus Krösche, Milan have started evaluating several profiles requested by Ruben Amorim: according to La Gazzetta dello Sport one new idea is Manuel Ugarte.
The costs for Hjulmand (also suggested by the coach) are very high, while the outlay for Ugarte’s transfer fee would be significantly lower, given that he is on the way out at Manchester United. The midfielder earns €4.1 million net and is under contract until 2029.
Inter, De Vrij could say “No” to a renewal
As reported by Sky Sport, Inter have offered Stefan De Vrij a contract extension, but he has reportedly put the proposal on standby: his goal is to get more playing time.
The defender – adds Fabrizio Romano – has four offers from abroad: three from Europe that would allow him to be a starter and another from Saudi Arabia. Inter, moreover, are very close to signing Provedel, as confirmed by his agent.
Napoli, renewal offered to McTominay
Corriere dello Sport writes that talks over McTominay’s renewal are progressing, albeit slowly and with some differences over salary.
The shared idea is to continue together and extend the deal until 2030, likely with an option through 2031 added on. There is optimism coming from Napoli, even though a gap between offer and demand remains.
Roma, fresh contacts for Greenwood
As reported by Fabrizio Romano, Roma have had fresh contacts with Greenwood, who knows he is Gasperini’s No. 1 choice. Marseille, however, are asking for €50 million plus €5 million in bonuses because Manchester United hold a very high sell-on percentage.
The Giallorossi hope that asking price can come down and, above all, to raise funds through the sale of Soulé. Roma also know that before July, offers could arrive for Koné, who is valued at €45/50 million (according to Pedullà).
Lazio, Galassi arriving from Real Madrid
According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Lazio are close to completing the signing of Bruno Galassi, a 2007-born midfielder who made 11 appearances this year for Los Blancos’ Primavera side.
The player will arrive on a free transfer, with a 50% sell-on clause, according to the portal LaLazioSiamoNoi.
Fiorentina, meeting over Kean staying on
As reported by the specialist outlet FirenzeViola.it, there will be a meeting between Kean’s agent (Alessandro Lucci) and Paratici to lay the groundwork for the striker to remain at Fiorentina.
Only a major offer from a club playing in the Champions League could make the club and player waver; for now, no offers have arrived and no interest has come close to the €62 million release clause.
