The weekend has begun, taking us towards a Sunday of high-tension football that will determine the balance of power for the championship, Champions League spots, and relegation.
Let's get ready to experience strong emotions, plot twists, and perhaps some unexpected surprises. While we wait, let's take a look at the most important news of the day.
The Bianconeri are looking to the future for their defense, and as highlighted by Tuttosport, it seems that Giovanni Leoni has convinced more than Comuzzo, for whom Fiorentina is asking for 40 million.
Leoni is one of the most followed profiles in the summer market: the club is counting on him to rebuild the defense. Meanwhile, the Bianconeri are earning 6 million from Huijsen, who was taken by Real Madrid, which paid the clause to Bournemouth.
Milan is preparing for a summer of profound changes, with several players ready to leave. Among them is Samuel Chukwueze, whose departure appears likely. However, the Rossoneri management has already moved to avoid being caught off guard, targeting a new winger from Serie A.
The hot name is that of Francisco Conceicao, who had a season with Juventus with 5 goals and 5 assists. With the failure to redeem him by the Bianconeri, according to Tuttosport, Jorge Mendes has proposed him to Milan, which is evaluating the deal with growing interest. In the Rossoneri house, therefore, the name Conceicao could stay.
Jonathan David is one of the most sought-after profiles in the summer market, with several clubs ready to move early to avoid getting involved in a bidding war. Inter, who have been tracking him for some time, has returned to the charge after Napoli's decisive entry, which has already made concrete moves.
According to Alfredo Pedullà, there have been new contacts between the Nerazzurri and the player's entourage, but the parties remain distant. At the moment, no one has matched Napoli's proposal, which remains in the lead but maintains high attention.
Napoli has returned to evaluating Jakub Kiwior's profile to strengthen their defense. The Polish central defender, currently at Arsenal and under contract until 2028, could open up to a return to Serie A, where he has already played for Spezia. Il Mattino - which reported the news - adds that his agents, who also handle Lobotka, have received signals from several Italian clubs, including Milan.
Napoli had already followed him in the past, but the deal fell through due to Spalletti's decision. Now, given the player's difficulties in the Premier League, the Azzurri club is thinking about him again: Arsenal is asking for 35 million.
Roma and Milan could find themselves crossing paths on the market as well. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Rossoneri club is evaluating Lorenzo Pellegrini for the midfield: the Giallorossi captain, who has just undergone surgery and has a contract expiring in 2026, could become an opportunity in the summer.
Regarding the surgery, the news is excellent: for Pellegrini, who was operated on in Finland, the operation was perfectly successful. However, the recovery times will be long: he could return at the end of the summer.
Lazio is carefully eyeing the market for full-backs and has set its sights on Junior Firpo, whose contract with Leeds is expiring. On Thursday, his agents were spotted in Formello, probably to discuss with sporting director Fabiani. As reported by Il Corriere dello Sport, there is also competition from Milan and Atletico Madrid, while a return to Barcelona is not excluded.
Firpo's future also depends on the situations of Pellegrini and Tavares. Lazio is following other profiles like Munoz from Real Sociedad and Javi Galan from Atletico, both managed by You First, the same agency as the former Barça player.
Il Corriere dello Sport states that Fiorentina is looking with interest at Adam Marusic, the Montenegrin full-back from Lazio. Despite the recent automatic extension of his contract, his future in the capital is not yet certain, and among the hypotheses is a transfer to Viola.
