The Champions League is just around the corner, with Inter and Napoli kicking off the Italian teams' matches today. Tomorrow, it will be Juventus and Atalanta's turn.
But - as always during this period - today is also a day of negotiations.
Below, as usual, are the most important news from the Serie A big clubs' market.
Juventus, decision on Mateta tonight
The deal between Juventus and Crystal Palace for Mateta's move to Turin is far from closed and, in fact, risks falling through. This is according to Alfredo Pedullà, who highlights how the gap between the two clubs is clear.
The English side, in fact, have never budged from their initial demand of 35 million + 5 in bonuses, reaching a total of 40 million. Juve, represented by CEO Comolli, could make a definitive decision by tonight.
Milan, difficulties in acquiring Kostic
What seemed like a quick deal, the Kostic affair could prove more complicated than expected. According to Matteo Moretto, the gap between Partizan Belgrade and Milan is wide.
The Serbs are asking for 12 million + a percentage on future resale, while the Devil doesn't want to move from the 4.5 million already offered. Additionally, Partizan has a 20 million release clause that doesn't favor Milan.
Inter, Sommer heading back to Switzerland
With only a few months left on his contract, Yann Sommer is increasingly distant from Inter. At the top levels of Viale della Liberazione, there's no thought of renewing the agreement for a goalkeeper who will turn 38 in December.
According to the Swiss newspaper Blink, the former Bayern player's future is with the club where he has already won a lot, Basel. However, watch out for the interest from Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe.
Napoli, always keeping an eye on Marcos Leonardo
Once very close to Roma, now Marcos Leonardo could arrive in Italy, but at Napoli.
The Brazilian had already been a name circulating around Vesuvius in the context of a potential swap with Al-Hilal that would have included Lorenzo Lucca. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, however, the Azzurri are now considering accelerating for the class of 2003 even without including the former Pisa player's card.
Roma, could Abraham return to the Premier League?
Clear signals are coming from England: Tammy Abraham has already given his approval for a move to Aston Villa. As reported by Ben Jacobs, the English striker has reached an agreement with the Birmingham club, while Roma is ready to authorize the transfer.
The only real obstacle remains the management of the loan with Besiktas, considered the most delicate part of the operation. However, the parties are already working to unlock the situation and find a shared solution.
Lazio, Mancini calls Romagnoli! Sarri FURIOUS
After the sales of Matteo Guendouzi and Taty Castellanos, Lazio might be saying goodbye to another key player.
According to Il Messaggero, Al-Sadd led by Roberto Mancini has renewed its pursuit of Alessio Romagnoli, presenting an offer between 5 and 6 million euros. The proposal was rejected without hesitation by the Biancocelesti management, deemed too low. Also decisive is Sarri's position, who — according to the newspaper — has indicated he is ready to resign if the center-back leaves the club.
Fiorentina in pole position for Coppola
An important update from ViolaNews regarding incoming transfers. According to the portal close to Fiorentina, the club is leading the race for the former Hellas center-back, Diego Coppola.
The class of 2003 is not having a fortunate season in England, at Brighton, and is considering a return to Italy. Remember that Coppola left Verona for 10 million euros.
