Morata. Inter: the choice for the defense. Napoli: Conte’s real objective. And the new Atalanta move…

I understand that Zingonia is a bit like what in Dragon Ball they called the “room of spirit and time”, where gravity is ten times stronger than that of planet Earth and a year spent inside it corresponds to just one day outside. You enter and exit differently, so much so that even the price tag is no longer the same. Yes, it’s true, it’s been like this for years and we shouldn’t be surprised anymore. Hell, though, they bought Koopmeiners for 14 million and now Juventus is on the verge of shelling out 60 just to bring him to Turin. 40 and a youngster, they say. It makes little difference, since the youngster who arrives will be worth 4 times as much, like Lookman and Hojlund. There’s little to do, the Gasperini-Percassi duo is going great, now we just have to wait for the next fantasy football auction to understand how much harm we’re willing to do to catch Matt O’Riley (very strong).

Inter: Unfortunately in Milan they don’t have the same spending power as the Bergamo team. It seems like a paradox, but it helps to understand how much football is changing. For this reason too, it is necessary to start looking a little more at young people and in fact, after Topalovic, another 2006 has just landed in Milan: Alex Perez, a defender that Inzaghi will immediately begin to evaluate, given that among the agreements there is that of having him train almost always in the first team (he should still play for the Primavera). But these are programs that will then be defined with greater clarity later. Zielinski will certainly arrive in Milan this evening, accompanied by his agent. If you want a photo with him, set your alarm for dawn on Thursday and go to Coni around 8, you will find him there for the sports fitness. The discussions for Cabal are also progressing well, there is already an agreement with the player, instead something still needs to be ironed out with Verona, but we are there. Valuation: 10 million euros, total minutes played in Serie A, less than 2000. Maybe they also have the room for spirit and time in Verona.

Milan: After a long wandering, Ibra has found the striker and chosen him in his image and likeness. After all, he has always played a bit like God. Morata is now close to becoming a Rossoneri player, oh God, he lacks a bit of Ibra’s power and a few goals, but he is a great centre forward and like the Swede he will know how to link the departments. Four years of contract and 5 million euros per season, the first stone has finally been laid. Now we can proceed with the rest. After the striker, the defender, the other key point. The south after the north, but in this case there are no clauses and the gap with Salzburg is still wide before being able to get their hands on Pavlovic, the number one objective to give greater certainties (also physical) to Fonseca.

Juventus: Giuntoli entered on tiptoe and then turned everything upside down. Allegri is a memory, the wind of change is blowing in Vinovo and by the start of the championship there will be several new faces who will have to present themselves for the first time. But Chiesa? Not everything can go smoothly, everyone must have their own hitch and Federico represents for Giuntoli the unexpected card at Monopoli. If you don’t sell him you have to go back, in the sense that perhaps you can’t be the defender you want. Aston Villa would be more than happy to take him, but Chiesa is not listening, he has put himself on hold for the big club and this is a bit detrimental to the market needs of the Bianconeri, who however can already boast of important purchases such as Thuram, Di Grogorio and Douglas Luiz. The work is progressing well, there’s no doubt about it.

Napoli: Inter wants Buongiorno? No, he’s going to Napoli. Inter wants Hermoso? No, he’s going to Napoli too, maybe. First we need to make room, that’s fine. Everyone from Antonio Conte, who has something pending with the Nerazzurri, he sure does. The communication machine has started, in Milan they know it very well. It goes more or less like this: “Don’t mention the word scudetto. We are clearly inferior to the others and last year’s ranking shows that we have to sweat to get into the top 4. Plus we don’t know how the market will end”. Does anyone believe him? In his heart, Conte is meditating on revenge (rightly!) and would snatch the next scudetto from the Nerazzurri shirt with his mouth. With the help of Lukaku… who will arrive (but only after placing Osimhen). It looks like it will be a great championship.
Southgate has resigned. If you think “well, that’s normal,” you’ve missed a beat.

Mbappé made a choice “also” for his career, of course, but turning him into a martyr who goes to Madrid because he chooses “football” (some have done it), no way, come on.
