Juve want Samu, Milan chase Javi Guerra, Napoli eye Lucca, Calha 🤑

Yahoo2 days ago
The sports season concludes today, June 30, as do some contracts. Negotiations are in full swing and many clubs are working on incoming and outgoing deals to define purchases and sales for the next season.
Let's discover the most important news of the day.
Juventus, eyes on Omorodion and Ambriz
Juventus is preparing to face Real Madrid in the round of 16 of the Club World Cup, but is also taking advantage of the competition to scout new market profiles. As reported by Tuttosport, the Bianconeri have set their sights on Samu Omorodion, a striker who has already left the tournament with Porto. His price tag is high, but he remains a concrete target.

Also according to Tuttosport, Fidel Ambriz, a midfielder from Monterrey, and the left-back from Palmeiras, Joaquín Piquerez, are also liked. Juventus is closely following these talents, considering significant investments to strengthen the squad for the next season.
Milan, Guerra in the middle of the field
After closing for Luka Modric and blocking Samuele Ricci and Ardon Jashari, Milan is considering the opportunity to engage Granit Xhaka. The club is not convinced to commit economically for another over 30, especially after the heavy engagement of the Croatian.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the pressure on Javi Guerra is intensifying. The Rossoneri club has made a first offer of 20 million, which was refused. But Milan is ready to raise the bid, increasing the proposal between 20 and 25 million to bring the young midfielder to the Rossoneri.
Inter, negotiations continue with Galatasaray for Calhanoglu
Compared to last year, when Inter quickly denied Bayern's interest in Hakan Calhanoglu, now there is silence. As reported by Tuttosport, the Turkish midfielder could really leave Milan. Galatasaray is pressing, but there is still a certain distance between demand and offer.

The sale of Calhanoglu would allow Inter to save about 26 million euros, considering his salary of 6.5 million per season. Galatasaray is firm at 15 million, while the Nerazzurri are asking for a figure between 25 and 30 million.
Napoli, Lucca closer
According to La Repubblica, Napoli is close to closing for Lorenzo Lucca, striker of Udinese. The Partenopeo club has accelerated contacts and aims to bring him to Dimaro already for the start of the retreat. However, the negotiation is linked to Liverpool's response for Darwin Nunez.
Despite the English club asking for 60 million for the Uruguayan, Napoli has not yet completely given up. However, Antonio Conte wants to have a deputy for Lukaku as soon as possible, and the Lucca option is becoming more and more concrete.
Roma, target Kenneth Taylor
Roma is looking at the incoming market with the name of Kenneth Taylor in mind. The Ajax midfielder, born in 2002 and number 10 of the Dutch Under 21, is among Massara's targets. As reported by Sportmediaset, Roma will try to beat the competition to secure the talent.

Taylor closed last season with 15 goals and 8 assists, numbers that explain the interest of the Giallorossi club. Ajax asks for 20 million to let him go, and Roma will evaluate whether to strike the blow in the next few days.
Lazio, the price of Cancellieri
Matteo Cancellieri was not redeemed by Parma, despite a good season. Back at Lazio, according to Il Messaggero, he has attracted the interest of Cagliari and Torino. The Biancoceleste club is willing to sell, but only definitively and for a figure between 10 and 15 million euros.
Lazio is also considering the possible sale of Noslin, but Cancellieri remains the easiest profile to place. After two good loan experiences, the young winger could soon leave the Capital for a new adventure.
Fiorentina, Sohm is a concrete track
Fiorentina continues to look at Parma to strengthen the midfield. After Adrian Bernabè, now the name of Simon Sohm has risen in preferences. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Viola club considers the Swiss midfielder more accessible, valued between 10 and 12 million.

Sohm, born in 2001, has defensive characteristics but still managed to score four goals last season. His contract expires in 2027 and the engagement is contained, making him an interesting option for the Viola midfield.

Palmeiras ask for 'amazing game' from Estevao against future employers Chelsea

Estevao Willian takes a drink during training at the Palmeiras team base in Philadelphia on Thursday (Franck FIFE) Palmeiras coach Abel Ferreira is hoping teenage sensation Estevao Willian can wave goodbye to the Brazilian team's fans by producing "one amazing game" and helping them beat his future employers Chelsea in Friday's Club World Cup quarter-final. Winger Estevao, 18, will leave Palmeiras at the end of the tournament in the United States to join Chelsea in a big-money transfer that was agreed more than a year ago. Advertisement The side from Sao Paulo hope that facing his future employers will provide Estevao with extra motivation to impress at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. "I don't speak with him (about the transfer), but he knows what he needs to do tomorrow and I hope he gives his best for the owners of Chelsea," Ferreira told reporters. "They see him as a player of potential with all the quality he has. It will be an opportunity for him to show how good he is so all I expect from him is to give his maximum, to attack, defend and maybe score a goal to give a goodbye to our fans." Ferreira added: "We helped him to grow as a man and a professional so it can be a good moment to give him a goodbye with one amazing game and maybe, you never know, with one goal." Advertisement Palmeiras, who lost to Chelsea in the final of the Club World Cup in its old guise in 2022, are hoping to strike another blow for South America against Europe at the tournament. Chelsea have already lost to Brazilian opposition in Philadelphia when they fell to Flamengo in the group stage, and Palmeiras could have the bigger backing inside the stadium on Friday. Ferreira expects locals to support his team on what is the United States' Independence Day holiday. "Yes we are the underdogs but it can be a good moment because tomorrow, if I am not wrong, it is the Independence Day against the English," Ferreira smiled. "We are up against a big team with a lot of talent, young players also, but we have one dream and now we will fight for it with open eyes and give our maximum tomorrow." as/pb

Strasbourg set to sign Soumaila Coulibaly from Borussia Dortmund

Strasbourg are set to sign central defender Soumaila Coulibaly from Borussia Dortmund. The 21-year-old is expected to move for a fee of €7.5million plus €1m in add-ons. The France youth international spent the 2024-25 season on loan at Brest, where he made 16 appearances of which eight came in the Champions League. Advertisement He previously spent three years in Paris Saint-Germain's youth system before joining Dortmund, where he has made one Bundesliga appearance. The centre-back spent 2023-24 on loan at Royal Antwerp in Belgium. Strasbourg are owned by Chelsea owners BlueCo, after the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital consortium took over the Ligue 1 club in June 2023, 11 months after buying the Premier League side. Coulibaly is in line to replace Mamadou Sarr after the 19-year-old defender moved to Chelsea in a €14million (£11.9m; $14.4m) transfer last month. (Fred Tanneau/AFP via Getty Images)
