Report – Inter Milan & Juventus Go Head-To-Head For Young Venezia Winger
Inter Milan and Juventus are reportedly ready to go head-to-head to try and sign young Venezia winger Alvin Okoro. This according to today's print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that the likes of Pescara, Mantova, and Juve Stabia have also shown interest. 20-year-old winger Alvin Okoro has been in the youth academy of Venezia for a couple years now. Okoro joined the Lagunari from Udinese in 2022. And last season, the Italian was on loan with Vis Pesaro. It proved to be something of a breakout campaign for him. Therefore, Okoro is starting to attract transfer interest.

Hefty fine for Nottinghamshire takeaway owner after rat droppings and smoking paraphernalia found on work surfaces
The former owner of a pizza takeaway has been banned from running food businesses after hygiene inspectors uncovered several failings. Inspectors visited Ali Parsi's Ashfield takeaway unannounced and found major problems with the conditions of the kitchen and food preparation areas. On a visit to the Huthwaite Road business in May 2023, the inspectors found rats and mice in the back of the premises where pizzas were prepared, alongside poor food hygiene conditions in the kitchen. Parsi, 54, of Southside, Arnold, voluntarily closed the business after the inspection, and it has since been reopened under new management. He pleaded guilty to three breaches of Food Safety and Hygiene Regulations when he appeared in Mansfield Magistrates' Court at the end of June.

He was then fined £6,439.73 and banned from managing or running any food businesses. The new management of Venezia has since scored a hygiene rating of three after an inspection by Ashfield District Council.

Report – Inter Milan & Empoli Negotiating Loan Formula For Argentine Winger
Inter Milan and Empoli are reportedly in advanced talks over a loan deal for Argentine winger Franco Carboni. According to TMW, the parties have already agreed on basic terms, but the formula is the missing part. Advertisement Indeed, Carboni should join the Azzurri on a season-long loan, with Empoli hoping to secure a quick return to Serie A. Roberto D'Aversa's side failed to maintain their top-flight status in 2024/25, finishing narrowly below safety.

(Photo by) Like his brother Valentin Carboni, Franco will temporarily leave San Siro again. However, Valentin will join Genoa on loan without a buyout clause. On the other hand, Franco should move to Stadio Carlo Castellani on different terms. Indeed, that's the subject of conversation between Inter and Empoli. The parties have yet to decide whether to include a buyout option or even make it mandatory. Either way, Carboni is one step away from spending the 2025/26 campaign in Tuscany. Yet, he'll hope for a better season after only making eight appearances for Venezia last term.

Oristanio targeted by Parma as well as Torino
Oristanio targeted by Parma as well as Torino Parma have joined Torino in tracking former Inter striker Gaetano Oristanio, who looks ready to leave Venezia this summer. The player is a product of the Inter youth academy and was sold to Venezia last summer for €4m, but they kept hold of a cut from the future transfer fee.

(Photo by) We had already reported here on Football Italia that Torino had shown interest in the versatile forward. Now we can confirm that Parma are also appreciative of his characteristics and will look to the ex-Cagliari player as a potential heir to Ange-Yoan Bonny. That can be looked into after Bonny has completed his €25m including bonuses move to Inter. Oristanio turns 23 in September and has seven caps with the Italy Under-21 international team. He contributed three goals and three assists in 37 Serie A appearances for Venezia, but was unable to prevent their relegation straight back into Serie B.

Italians in Venice told me how they really feel about Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding
On the morning of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding ceremony, I wanted to ask Venetians what they thought of the spectacle dividing the city, so I headed to the one place I knew I'd find locals: a cafe. Two things surprised me. First, rather than being drawn into conversation by a nonna at the next table, I learned that Italians drink their morning espresso like a shot at the counter. They don't hang around — certainly not for interviews (I suppose the clue is in the name). Second, for some locals, the Bezos-Sanchez wedding isn't exactly the talk of the town. I was in the branch of the cafe and patisserie Rosa Salva, near the Rialto — the central and most touristic part of Venice. Outside, tourists lounged with drinks and pastries, sunning themselves in "Venezia" straw hats and t-shirts bearing the names of other European cities. Inside, apart from the conveyor belt of Venetians drinking espresso, a few patrons had a leisurely drink while taking advantage of the air conditioning. A waitress confirmed speculation that the other branches of the Venetian patisserie, founded in 1870, had made gift bags for the wedding. When I asked staff at another branch the day before, they were clueless about it — or at least feigned knowing nothing until Bezos' guests had received the bags. Rosa Salva, she said, was one of many local vendors involved in the lavish celebration. (Later, when I bumped into the owner of Rosa Salva after much hunting, he confirmed they'd provided goods to a high-profile wedding, but wouldn't say which one). By the restroom, a mother, with her two young boys on kiddie leashes, waited for her husband to return. They were visiting from Rome, she told me. I asked her what she thought about the "big wedding." As she stumbled over her English, her husband appeared, and overhearing the end of the conversation, responded cheerfully: "We got married nine years ago. It was a lovely day." Sure, there may have been a language barrier, but perhaps his reaction was more a sign that the "big wedding" isn't necessarily on everyone's lips here. His wife corrected him. "Not our big wedding," she explained, laughing, but the Bezos-Sanchez wedding. Francesca Babolini, a Venetian photographer doing some work on her laptop at the cafe, joined the conversation. I asked her what she thought about the Bezos-Sanchez wedding celebrations, which have been both highly anticipated and also highly protested. "It doesn't affect us," she said matter-of-factly. Later on Friday, a ceremony is being be held on a separate island, San Giorgio Maggiore. In this part of Venice, it will have little effect, she added, other than the presence of Ivanka Trump, more yachts than usual, and the occasional protest. For Babolini, she said it's just another ordinary day in Venice. At least, in this part of the city.
