Douglas Luiz deliberately misses training; expected to leave Juventus
Douglas Luiz has deliberately missed the training of Juventus as he wants to leave the club this summer transfer window. Luiz did not show up for training and the club confirmed it. The player is expected to face some disciplinary actions by the club for his this behaviour.
Douglas Luiz has sparked controversy at Juventus after deliberately missing a scheduled training session, fueling rumours of an imminent summer exit. The Brazilian midfielder failed to report for training, and the club has officially confirmed his absence.
Sources close to the situation suggest that Luiz is pushing for a move away from the Turin-based club, just weeks after joining from Aston Villa in a high-profile transfer. His decision to skip training is seen as a clear indication of his desire to force a departure.
Juventus are reportedly unhappy with Luiz's conduct and are expected to take disciplinary action. While the club remains tight-lipped about the internal measures being considered, such behavior is unlikely to be tolerated under the new regime led by manager Thiago Motta.

Juventus and Roma weigh up McKennie & Cristante swap
Juventus and Roma are negotiating a potential swap deal for Weston McKennie and Bryan Cristante, the Italian press are reporting, with both clubs looking to gain something from the transfer. According to what has been reported by the Gazzetta dello Sport, via Goal, Juventus want to avoid losing McKennie on a free next summer and could therefore look to bring in experienced midfielder Cristante to plug the gap left by the American. epa11824638 Juventus's 'and Atalanta's Ademola Lookman in action during the Italian Serie A soccer match between Atalanta BC and Juventus FC, in Bergamo, Italy, 14 January 2025. EPA-EFE/MICHELE MARAVIGLIA What's in it for both clubs as McKennie-Cristante swap proposed? At 30, Cristante is four years older than his American counterpart. However, the reports suggest that Juventus are trying to make a concerted effort to increase the 'Italianness' of the club. The Bianconeri wish to increase the number of Italian players at the club and former Atalanta man Cristante has a lot of experience, both on and off the pitch, that he could bring to the club.

Although his spell at Juventus has been up-and-down, it is worthwhile noting that before sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli left the Bianconeri, McKennie was very close to signing a new deal. However, reported demands from the player's representatives made it difficult for the Old Lady to agree and thus the situation emerged that we find ourselves in now.

WSL: Aston Villa sign French defender Océane Deslandes
Aston Villa have signed Océane Deslandes on a free transfer from Montpellier following the expiry of her contract. Aston Villa have added another star player to their squad ahead of the 25/26 WSL season. Deslandes is the fifth player Aston Villa have signed so far during the summer transfer window. The 24-year-old defender joins the club following the expiration of her contract with Montpellier, having played for the French side since 2022. A successful youth international for France, Deslandes began her career at Stade de Reims, rising through the ranks before making the move to one of France's top-flight sides. Known for her composure, athleticism, and ability on the ball, Deslandes brings both experience and energy to Villa's back line. Director of Women's Football Marisa Ewers expressed her excitement over the new addition: 'Océane has played very consistently in France and has gained a lot of minutes in recent seasons. She has impressed us with her energy and quality on the ball, and we hope we can aid her further development here at Aston Villa.' Deslandes becomes the latest addition to the squad as Villa continue to strengthen ahead of the upcoming season. They finished sixth in the Women's Super League table last season with 25 points, three adrift of Brighton and Hove Albion, and ahead of Liverpool on goal difference.
