There are still many deals to close and ongoing negotiations that keep Serie A fans on tenterhooks. Here are the main market news of the big Italian teams.

🆕 Juve, new name for the midfield

Juventus continues its work on the market with the aim of strengthening the midfield, after the break with Douglas Luiz. The name at the top of the list is Morten Hjulmand, but Sporting CP is asking for a high figure that complicates the Bianconeri's plans. For this reason, the management is considering alternative paths.

Among the names followed are André of Wolverhampton, valued at about 40 million, and Franck Kessié, who would like to return to Europe but has a very high salary. Bissouma and Amrabat are also under observation, considered suitable profiles for technical and physical characteristics. Tuttosport reports.

🇸🇦 Bennacer flies to Arabia?

Milan could soon lose an important piece in midfield: Ismaël Bennacer is indeed in the sights of Al-Ittihad, a Saudi club that - according to Gazzetta.it - has already presented an offer of about 10 million euros. The proposal, however, has not yet convinced the player, who is taking time to evaluate.

The situation remains undefined, but Milan is watching closely: a possible departure of Bennacer would open up space for a new reinforcement in midfield. For now, everything remains on stand-by, waiting for the decision of the Algerian midfielder.

👀 Inter, Esposito on the way out

The future of Sebastiano Esposito at Inter is still to be written. After the loan to Empoli, the 2002 class does not fit into Cristian Chivu's plans for the next season and could leave again, as reported by Alfredo Pedullà.

Several clubs have shown interest in the striker: Parma, Cagliari and Fiorentina have moved in Serie A, but in the last few hours Udinese and Ajax have also shown interest. The Dutch destination could represent an ideal opportunity to relaunch the career of the young Nerazzurri talent.

👋 Napoli, Cajuste says goodbye

Jens Cajuste is close to saying goodbye to Napoli, with several teams on his trail. After the initial interest of Besiktas, which aims at the loan, and that of Ipswich Town, where he has already played, a new club has also entered the race for the Swedish midfielder.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, Burnley has started the first contacts with Napoli to sound out the ground. The negotiations are still in the exploratory phase, but the competition for Cajuste is getting tougher. The player remains on the margins of Conte's project and could soon change his shirt.

⚔️ Roma, what competition for Paixão

According to Matteo Moretto, Igor Paixão, Feyenoord's offensive winger, was recently proposed to Roma. However, the Brazilian player has to deal with strong competition on the market.

Leeds United and Olympique Marseille seem currently in the lead, with the English club having already made an offer of 26 million pounds and could increase the proposal to meet Feyenoord's demands. Roma, for now, watches from afar and could only intervene in case of complications in the negotiations with Leeds.

🔥 Lazio, eyes on the 2003 Spaniard

Lazio, intending to strengthen the team led by Maurizio Sarri after a season below expectations, has targeted a young Spanish talent: Hugo Sotelo, a 2003 class midfielder from Celta Vigo. The club from the capital is closely following this emerging profile.

The negotiation is in the initial stages, and it remains to be defined the mode of transfer - whether on loan with right or obligation -, but the young talent could become a strategic investment for Lazio. Several Spanish media report this.

🟣 Fiorentina, already chosen the deputy Dodo

According to Corriere dello Sport, the renewal of Dodo with Fiorentina is still on stand-by: there have been no steps forward or approaches between the Viola club and the Brazilian full-back, whose contract expires in 2027. However, at the moment, the former Shakhtar should remain in Florence, unless an offer of more than 30 million euros arrives.

In the meantime, Fiorentina continues to sound out the market in search of a possible deputy-Dodo, in case Niccolò Fortini or Riccardo Sottil should leave. Among the names evaluated stands out that of Nadir Zortea of Cagliari, with whom there could be a loan operation with an obligation to redeem at 8 million. Zortea's contract with the Sardinians is valid until 2028, but the club could give in to an adequate offer.
