But it’s not just about the National Team: the transfer market also continues to deliver major developments. Here are the day’s most important stories, collected in this article.
Juve, the plan to land Suzuki
Fabrizio Romano points out that Juventus are pushing for Zion Suzuki and have already submitted an initial offer to Parma, though it was deemed insufficient by the Emilian club. The Bianconeri are banking on the Japanese goalkeeper’s desire to secure regular playing time, but they must deal with competition from PSG.
The French side are in fact considering signing Suzuki, with the possibility of then sending him out on loan if Lucas Chevalier remains in the squad. If the deal falls through, Juventus are ready to turn to Guglielmo Vicario, considered the main alternative for the goalkeeping position. Source: Fabrizio Romano.
Milan, Soulé offered! What it takes for Leao...
Milan’s transfer market day was marked by several talking points. According to Matteo Moretto, Matias Soulé has been offered to the Rossoneri, with Roma willing to listen to offers for the Argentine. At the moment there are no negotiations, but the club likes the profile.
Meanwhile, Leão’s future is heating up: Fenerbahçe have arrived in Milan to negotiate directly with Milan and the Portuguese forward’s agents, but the Rossoneri remain firm in their position. Yagiz Sabuncuoglu specifies that the club will only accept a permanent transfer and values the player at no less than €50 million, rejecting any proposal based on loans or deals with an option to buy. Talks will continue in the coming days.
Inter, Premier League monitoring Sucic
Petar Sucic continues to attract interest from the Premier League, with Newcastle and Leeds — according to Il Corriere dello Sport — having made initial enquiries and even considering a valuation between €35 million and €40 million. Inter, however, have not opened the door to selling the Croatian midfielder.

There is great confidence within the Nerazzurri camp in the growth of the 2003-born player, who is also considered a key part of the future of the midfield by Cristian Chivu. Inter would only consider his departure in the face of an offer deemed truly impossible to turn down.
Napoli, two names for the defence: one is from Chelsea
Napoli continue to work on strengthening the defence and are considering two profiles. Tiago Gabriel remains among the targets, but Lecce are asking for €30 million, a figure Aurelio De Laurentiis currently considers too high and does not intend to meet.

Tuttosport adds another name: the alternative leads to Chelsea’s Benoît Badiashile. After the Blues said no to a loan with an option to buy, the Azzurri are reportedly preparing an €18 million offer for the French centre-back, who wants more playing time and would look favourably on a move to Napoli.
Roma, Aston Villa tracking El Aynaoui
As reported by VoceGiallorossa.it , El Aynaoui has ended up on Aston Villa’s radar after his strong performances for Roma and at the Club World Cup. The English club, coached by Unai Emery, see him as one of the profiles to replace Youri Tielemans, who was sold to Manchester United.
Roma are ready to listen to any offers for the Moroccan midfielder, who is also liked by other European clubs. In the coming weeks the situation could develop, with Aston Villa among the most interested clubs.
Lazio, Füllkrug if the Gimenez deal falls through?
Lazio continue to assess reinforcements for the attack. Il Corriere dello Sport reports that, in addition to Giménez, the name of Niclas Füllkrug is gaining traction, with the West Ham striker open to a return to Italy. The idea would be a loan on favourable financial terms.
More complicated, however, is the route leading to Giménez. The striker is not part of Milan’s plans, but his recent ankle problems and the structure of the deal are the main obstacles: the Biancocelesti are only considering a free loan with no obligation to buy.
Fiorentina dream of Jadon Sancho
Jadon Sancho is a concrete idea for Fiorentina. According to TuttomercatoWeb , the Viola are preparing a three-year contract to convince the English winger, currently a free agent, to accept a move to Florence.
The negotiations remain open, but Fiorentina will have to beat competition from Borussia Dortmund, who have already submitted an offer to bring Sancho back to Germany. The former Manchester United man is expected to make a decision in the coming hours.
