Let’s take a look at the most important news of the day.
Juve, contact made with Trubin for the goalkeeping position
Juventus continue to monitor the goalkeeper market and, according to La Stampa , have also opened talks for Trubin, Benfica’s shot-stopper, who had already been followed by Inter in the past. The Ukrainian, born in 2001, is appreciated for his international experience and quality.
The deal, however, is far from simple. Benfica value Trubin at more than €30 million , a figure considered too high by the Bianconeri and which, at least for now, represents the main obstacle in the negotiations.
Milan, no deal for Karetsas: he’s heading to BVB
Milan are set to miss out on Kostantinos Karetsas. According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri , Borussia Dortmund are now close to reaching an agreement with Genk for the transfer of the talented Greek midfielder.
The parties are working to complete the deal in the coming hours, and Monday could be decisive. Optimism around the move is growing, with Borussia Dortmund increasingly close to securing Karetsas.
Inter-Romero, Akanji-style formula being considered
Inter continue to push for Cristian Romero, identified as the main defensive reinforcement for Cristian Chivu’s side. According to SportMediaset , the Nerazzurri are working on an offer of around €40 million, but with a different structure rather than immediate payment.

The idea is to replicate the so-called “Akanji formula,” with a paid loan deal accompanied by an obligation to buy. A solution that would allow Inter to preserve funds to also invest in signing a wide player.
Napoli, Galatasaray set their sights on De Bruyne
Galatasaray have set their sights on Kevin De Bruyne. According to tuttomercatoweb , the Turkish club see the Napoli midfielder as the ideal profile to raise the quality of the squad and are preparing an important offer.

The deal also depends on the management of the only available slot for over-age players, but the club’s hierarchy reportedly already have a two-year contract ready with a top-level salary. More developments in the negotiations are expected in the coming days.
Roma, all the names being considered for the left wing
After the arrival of Santiago Castro, Roma are focusing their efforts on signing a left winger requested by Gasperini. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport , the dream remains Antonio Nusa, but Leipzig value him at more than €55 million , while the Giallorossi have a budget of around €50 million.
The alternatives are Said El Mala, Gabriel Martinelli, Simon Adingra and Bahoya, with Rashford considered out of reach. In the background, the intriguing name of Rafa Leão also remains, although that deal is considered very complicated both because of the transfer fee and the wages involved.
Lazio, Markmann getting closer: the figures
Lazio continue to work on Markmann, the Nordsjælland defender considered the main target to strengthen the back line. According to Il Corriere dello Sport , the Biancocelesti are aiming to complete the deal this week, with a gap still to be bridged between asking price and offer.
Nordsjælland are asking for €7 million including bonuses, while Lazio have gone up to €5 million plus bonuses. Meanwhile, Markmann’s absence from the squad for the season opener, officially due to fitness issues, is being interpreted as a possible transfer clue.
Fiorentina, bid rejected for Gimnasia’s Modica
Fiorentina are looking to Argentina to strengthen their attack. According to broadcaster Aurora Argentina 91.3 , La Viola submitted an offer for Agustín Modica, the 2003-born striker from Gimnasia y Esgrima de Mendoza, who also holds an Italian passport.
The response from the Argentine club, however, was cold: their intention is to keep the player at least until the end of the year. It remains to be seen whether Fiorentina will come back in for him in the coming months.
