With the start of August, we have passed the first half of the transfer market and are entering the second and decisive month of negotiations.
Below, as usual, are the most important news.
Juve, Kolo Muani is closer
According to what was gathered by Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus is getting closer to bringing back attacker Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain.
The French club's request for 50 million euros has been approached with each new bid, and now the gap does not seem insurmountable. A compromise on the obligation to buy is also close. The formula will be that of an onerous loan with a conditional obligation, but the conditions to reach it should be very simple. Igor Tudor is waiting for him, the Frenchman is eager.
Milan, difficult shot for Kalimuendo
Gianluca Di Marzio spoke last night about Milan's interest in Rennes' striker Arnaud Kalimuendo, but the operation is far from simple.
Indeed, several clubs have been moving for the 23-year-old Frenchman for some time and have an advantage. Matteo Moretto explains that Nottingham Forest and Brentford, as well as Villarreal, are further ahead in the talks for the attacker.
Inter, the background on Lookman
Corriere dello Sport director Ivan Zazzaroni explained a background story related to Inter's negotiations for Atalanta attacker Ademola Lookman.
According to what the journalist gathered, Atalanta did not make any economic request to let the Nigerian leave. The 50 million euros, therefore, do not guarantee that President Beppe Marotta will close the deal. The real obstacle to the operation was the sudden and unexpected sale of Mateo Retegui, which makes the club's management reluctant to approve another significant departure in attack.
Napoli, Fabbian is the alternative to Miretti
Napoli is looking to complete its midfield by searching for a new addition to the squad of coach Antonio Conte. They are looking for a player to add to the roster, with strong insertion characteristics and a lot of desire to get involved.
While Fabio Miretti is being negotiated with Juventus, alternatives are being considered: the most quoted at the moment is Giovanni Fabbian of Bologna. Sports director Giovanni Manna is working on a formula that can lower the price. The idea is to include Alessandro Zanoli as a technical counterpart.
Roma, idea Enciso as a midfielder
According to what was gathered by ForzaRoma.info, Claudio Echeverri of Manchester City is the priority track for the trequartista role requested by Gianpiero Gasperini, but it's not the only one the club is evaluating.
Another young talent fascinates the Giallorossi management. It's about Julio Enciso, a 2004-born player from Brighton with a contract expiring in 2026. Precisely because of this situation, the club could hope for a discount compared to the 25 million euros requested by the Seagulls in January from Atalanta.
Lazio, Taty's sale blocked
Il Corriere della Sera explains that, due to a series of factors, the sale of Valentin Castellanos to MLS has been frozen for the time being.
Obviously, the blocked market has an impact, as does Lorenzo Insigne's position, which is not yet clear (he could have been a false nueve option). With Boulayé Dia absent in the winter for the Africa Cup, the Argentine's departure is considered too great a risk.
Fiorentina, Beltran not sure about Flamengo: the reason
Fiorentina had taken for granted the sale to Flamengo of the second striker Lucas Beltran. There was already an agreement between the clubs, but Il Corriere Fiorentino explains that the Argentine is not sure.
The player, in fact, does not intend to leave Europe. For him, staying in Viola is an option, but he would also accept a transfer if European clubs come forward.
