Juventus, surprise names for the defense

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus is not only looking for reinforcements in attack or midfield, but also in defense. The initial target, Leonardo Balerdi, a faithful of Tudor, has been locked by OM who does not intend to give him up. For this reason, the Bianconeri management, with Comolli at the helm, has turned to new names.

The current list includes Jakub Kiwior, Konstantinos Koulierakis and Lucas Beraldo, all profiles that meet the tactical needs of the club. Juventus is carefully evaluating the feasibility of the operations, taking into account the economic conditions and possible openings from the respective clubs.

Milan, Musah's price is set

Milan has taken a clear position on Yunus Musah. As reported by Daniele Longo, the club does not intend to part with the American midfielder for less than 30 million euros. The interest of Napoli and Nottingham Forest is concrete, but so far no one has reached the set figure.

Max Allegri has recognized the importance of the player, and the Rossoneri remain firm in their evaluation. If the offers do not reach 30 million, Musah will remain available for Milan for the next season.

Inter, Al Hilal swoops on Ausilio

After snatching Simone Inzaghi from Inter, Al Hilal continues to look at the Nerazzurri house. According to Sportitalia, the Saudi club is looking for a new sports director and has set its sights on Piero Ausilio.

The Inter manager is one of the profiles followed with greater attention by the Arab company. The possible negotiation, however, will depend on Ausilio's intentions and Inter's willingness to let him go.

Napoli, Arnau idea for the flank

As explained by Matteo Moretto on Fabrizio Romano's YouTube channel, Napoli follows Arnau Martinez of Girona, born in 2003, as a possible reinforcement for the right flank. At the moment there is no formal negotiation, but the player has entered the list of objectives.

The track could heat up in case of difficulties in the negotiation for Juanlu. The Azzurri management intends to keep more options open to avoid being caught unprepared in case of surprises.

Roma, Franculino Djù in the sights

Roma, looking for offensive reinforcements for Gasperini, has asked for information on Franculino Djù from Midtjylland, as reported by Matteo Moretto. The 2004-born winger started the season with 6 goals in the first 5 games, also attracting the interest of Leipzig and Everton.

The Danish club values the player at around 20 million euros. Last season Djù scored 16 goals in 41 appearances, confirming himself as one of the most interesting prospects in Nordic football.

Lazio, Castellanos open to sale

In an interview, journalist Cesar Luis Merlo explained that Taty Castellanos would be open to a transfer, but only if an offer close to the 35 million set by Lazio came in.

“Castellanos-Lazio? The value that Lazio has set for him is 35 million euros. Taty is available for a possible transfer, but the offers that have arrived for him, do not come close to this figure. And the Biancocelesti seem to me to be immovable on this. It should be said that the player does not want to leave the club at all costs, but if a good opportunity presented itself, he would take it. I can confirm this to you”.

"The clubs that have shown the most interest in him all come from the Premier, but their offers were all around 20 million euros. A figure quite far from the 35 million requested by Lotito. Therefore, to change something, a team is needed that at least approaches the 30 million wall and maybe then, by negotiating, an agreement can be reached".

Fiorentina, Shpendi surpasses Ioannidis

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Ioannidis option for the Viola attack is moving away due to the request of 25-30 million from Panathinaikos. Fiorentina is therefore turning to Cristian Shpendi from Cesena, already followed in January.

Shpendi, an Italian-Albanian protagonist in Romagna, represents a more accessible option and in line with Pioli's parameters. The tracks leading to Piccoli and Calvert-Lewin, the latter currently a free agent, remain more subdued.
