Report – Expectations Sky High For Breakout Young Striker At Inter Milan
Expectations are reportedly sky high for striker Francesco Pio Esposito behind the scenes at Inter Milan. This according to today's print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInter1908. Francesco Pio Esposito will become part of Inter Milan's senior squad next season. Having joined the Nerazzurri youth academy at the age of thirteen, Pio Esposito starred at several youth team levels. Then, he spent the last two seasons on loan with Spezia. And it was last campaign that the young striker really broke through. He managed to score nineteen goals for Spezia, nearly firing the Ligurians to promotion from Serie B. Therefore, it was little surprise that virtually every club in Serie A was interested in signing Pio Esposito this summer. Naturally, Inter considered loaning Pio Esposito out. A stint with a team in the top flight would ensure regular playing time and the opportunity for the 20-year-old to develop. But in the end, that is not the route that Inter took. Expectations Sky High For Francesco Pio Esposito At Inter Milan SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – JUNE 25: Francesco Esposito #94 of FC Internazionale Milano celebrates scoring his team's first goal with Lautaro Martinez #10 during the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 group E match between FC Internazionale Milano and CA River Plate at Lumen Field on June 25, 2025 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) According to Tuttosport, Inter are not just making a hopeful bet on Pio Esposito. On the contrary, after the young striker's performances at the Club World Cup, Inter believe that there is a real chance that the 20-year-old can make a big impact in their first team. Pio Esposito has a profile that Inter didn't previously have in their squad. A real out-and-out Number Nine, and a physical battering ram of a centre-forward. The 20-year-old's combination of physicality, holdup play, and finishing ability mean that he will certainly have his chance to play next season. And within Inter, the feeling is that Pio Esposito could become a key player next season.

Done Deal: Ostigard ready for Genoa return from Rennes
Leo Ostigard is reportedly returning to Genoa, on loan with option to buy from Stade Rennes, after leaving Serie A in 2024. According to Sky Sport Italia transfer pundit Gianluca Di Marzio, a deal has been reached and he will be in Italy on Sunday for his medical tests. Their first choice had been Jay Idzes, but Venezia were reportedly asking for €10m to sell, which made Genoa turn back towards Ostigard instead. Genoa look to Ostigard again WOLFSBURG, GERMANY – MAY 09: Leo Ostigard of TSG Hoffenheim looks on during the Bundesliga match between VfL Wolfsburg and TSG 1899 Hoffenheim at Volkswagen Arena on May 09, 2025 in Wolfsburg, Germany.

He made 15 appearances for the club, scoring one goal and receiving two red cards. Ostigard remained in Serie A after that, as Brighton sold him to Napoli for €5.5m and he helped them win the Serie A title before moving on to Stade Rennes in 2024. The central defender spent the last six months on loan at TSG Hoffenheim in Germany. Between Genoa and Napoli, he has made 46 Serie A appearances during his playing career and will now return to Italian football for the 2025-26 campaign.
