On the day Darmian chose his team for his return to Serie A, we also learn the recovery timeline for Gudmundsson’s injury. But that’s not all: even without matches, news around Serie A’s biggest clubs never stops.
Let’s look at today’s most important stories.
Juventus, battle for Tagliafico
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Juventus remain very interested in Nicolas Tagliafico: the Lyon left-back who had come close to joining the Bianconeri at the end of August.
However, Atletico Madrid also remain keen on the player, as the colchoneros do not have another natural left-back to rotate with Grimaldo, their undisputed starter.
Milan, Koopmeiners offered
According to MilanNews, intermediaries have offered Koopmeiners to Milan: a profile that, however, does not excite the Rossoneri management.
The Dutchman’s spell at Juventus seems to be coming to an end, and the aim is to find him a new club. Milan will probably look for midfielders in January, but Koopmeiners’ name is not at the top of the list.
Inter, France’s verdict on Diouf
Andy Diouf’s performance at left-back in Belgium-France divided the French media. In particular, former World Cup-winning defender Samuel Umtiti was fairly critical: “It was obvious he wasn’t used to that position.”
“We saw him anticipate some situations and arrive late in others. It’s up to him to work on that individually, but it won’t be easy because he’s a very attack-minded player.”
Napoli, the story behind Buongiorno-Allegri
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Alessandro Buongiorno returned to Castel Volturno yesterday to train in the gym: it was the first time Allegri and the defender had met in person since his arrival at Napoli.
The two had only spoken on the phone, as the decision to undergo surgery had been made around mid-July, at the same time as the start of the summer training camp in Dimaro.
Roma, potential earnings from Alessandro Romano
According to Tuttosport, Roma retained a percentage of any future resale of Alessandro Romano: namely, 10% of the difference between the 5 million paid by Cagliari to sign him and the final transfer fee.
Meanwhile, the Sardinian club has already been approached by several Serie A and foreign teams for the midfielder.
Lazio, today is balance sheet day
As reported by Il Messaggero, today, September 30, Lazio’s updated financial picture will be taken: a key step in assessing the expanded labor cost ratio ahead of the winter transfer window.
The Biancocelesti are not expected to get back below 0.7 and therefore have a completely free market: if the ratio improves from 0.82, the club will likely head toward a break-even window, while without progress the risk is another total block. The official verdict will only arrive in December.
Fiorentina, the club want to renew De Gea’s deal
Fiorentina want to renew David De Gea’s contract even though his current deal runs until 2028: the goalkeeper is considered crucial for his experience within a very young squad.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the parties will discuss a possible extension in the coming months. The figures still need to be defined, as De Gea currently earns €3 million net per year.
