The summary of all the transfer market news of the day that has just been archived. Between rumors, negotiations and behind the scenes, here is the most important news.
ATALANTA
One of the players viewed in recent weeks and followed for next season is Abdessamad Ezzalzoulistriker owned by Betis of Seville. Evaluation to be understood, even if it will probably be around 25 million euros, exactly half of what Atalanta aims to get for Ademola Lookman
INTER
Empoli has already planned the redemption of Sebastiano Espositoa striker born in 2002 who arrived last summer from Inter on loan with rights. The agreement stipulated in the summer provides for the possibility for Empoli to redeem the price for five million euros. He then dances a million euro bonus, linked to the salvation of D’Aversa’s team, but the story doesn’t change: Esposito has taken Empoli and Empoli will take Esposito. A wedding that always has more to do.
NAPLES
Napoli had a discussion with the entourage of Jakub Kiwior, defender of Arsenal and the Polish national team. He can play both on the left and as a central defender, he already knows the championship and the evaluation is more or less the same as he already had at the time of the transfer from Spezia to the Gunners: for 25 million he can move, even if the Londoners have no intention of selling him in January.
After the rift between Fiorentina and its captain Cristiano Biraghithe departure of the Viola full-back in January is almost certain, especially given the words of his agent after Raffaele Palladino’s decision not to field him even in the Conference League and leave him out of the squad. Agent Giuffredi has in fact already announced his farewell in the upcoming January transfer window and has already discussed it with Manna, hypothesizing an agreement until 2026 for the lateral. The negotiation could also involve a player that Fiorentina really likes, that is Michael Folorunsho who is finding very little space this season in Naples after the great championship with Hellas.
The Italian club is also focused on another topic: contract renewals. The first names with which to try to get to checkers are Alex Meret and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. As for the Friulian goalkeeper, his agent, Federico Pastorello, was spotted yesterday in Castel Volturno, ready to sign a new agreement. In recent times, steps forward have also been made for the Georgian offensive winger, while an agreement has been set up with Mathias Olivera until 2029. The Uruguayan is one of Conte’s certainties and must be protected by the sirens coming from the Premier League with an important extension.
JUVENTUS
The maxi-contract of Dusan Vlahovic with Juventus it will expire on 30 June 2026. The salary now weighs almost 25 million gross per year and continues to keep the parties quite distant regarding a new agreement. Contacts between the Juventus management and the agent Darko Ristic are frequent; even the hypothesis of a farewell in six months or perhaps in 2026 on a free transfer is far from being ruled out.
In the last championship matches against Lecce and Bologna, the Juventus coach Thiago Motta he also called up the midfielder among the young players Augustus Owusu. The class of 2005 renewed his contract a few hours ago until June 30, 2027.
MILAN
Point on the renewal of Theo Hernandez. The full-back is linked to the Rossoneri club by a contract expiring on 30 June 2026 and the negotiation for the renewal is struggling to take off. Theo’s request to sign a new agreement is eight million euros net per season, almost double the current salary. As for Rafael Leao, the agreement could be reached with seven bonuses included but in recent months no step forward has been made in this direction and therefore the sale in the summer is anything but to be ruled out.
VENICE
In the lagoon club’s sights today there are three players above all, all suitable to strengthen the advanced sector: Alessio Zerbin of Naples, Alberto Cerri of Como and David Ankeye of Genoa.
FOREIGN FOOTBALL
