Juve, Stiller a new idea for midfield
Juventus continue to be active in the transfer market and are looking to the Bundesliga: Angelo Stiller of Stuttgart is in their sights.
According to Tuttosport, the midfielder is considered one of the most interesting profiles in the German league and could represent an ideal technical and tactical addition for Spalletti’s style of play. His contract includes a €36.5 million release clause, although the German club can cancel it by paying the player €2 million.
Milan, not just Gila: two more names on the radar
Milan are preparing a mini defensive overhaul. The main name remains Lazio’s Mario Gila: according to TMW, there is already an agreement in principle with the player (a four-year deal worth €3 million), but an agreement with Lotito is still needed.
He is not the only target, though. The club wants two reinforcements and is considering the profiles of Nathan Aké, who could leave Manchester City, Udinese’s Thomas Kristensen, and Chelsea’s Benoit Badiashile.
Inter, City’s Aké offered
Nathan Aké’s name is also heating up at Inter. According to TMW, the defender has been offered to Inter, Milan, and Juventus.
The price is relatively affordable (€10-15 million), but it remains to be seen whether his wages are sustainable and whether the player is interested.
Napoli, is Kvaratskhelia’s brother arriving?
Napoli are looking to the future and focusing on emerging talents. One of them is Tornike Kvaratskhelia, Khvicha’s younger brother.
Born in 2010, he plays for Dinamo Tbilisi and is already involved with the youth national teams. According to areaNapoli, sporting director Giovanni Manna has been following him for some time: he is a long-term investment, although the move is complicated by FIFA rules on the transfer of minors.
Roma, Gasperini looking at Fiorentina
Roma are also using the end of the season with the transfer market in mind. According to La Nazione, Gian Piero Gasperini is closely monitoring three Fiorentina players: Dodo, Albert Gudmundsson, and Niccolo Fortini.
Dodo represents the most concrete opportunity because of his expiring contract, while Gudmundsson remains more expensive (at least €15 million).
Lazio, ADL-Sarri contact: the situation
Maurizio Sarri’s future at Lazio remains uncertain. According to Lalaziosiamonoi, Napoli have already made an initial direct contact between Aurelio De Laurentiis and the coach.
Much will depend on Conte’s future: if he were to leave, Sarri would become the top target. Lazio, however, remain in pole position and will have the final say in end-of-season talks.
Fiorentina, TOTAL revolution with Paratici
Fiorentina are preparing for a deep transformation under the guidance of Fabio Paratici.
According to FirenzeViola, the changes will affect: the squad and coach, marketing and communication, the Viola Park structure, scouting, and internal organization.
New executives have already arrived and others could follow shortly. It is a 360-degree revolution, with the goal of building a more modern and competitive club.
