AC Milan have been one of the many Serie A teams chasing a striker this entire month. They managed to sign Niclas Fullkrug at the start of the month, but haven’t bought anyone else in since. Fullkrug is more of a stop gap then a permanent option for Milan, as they try to replace Santiago Gimenez, who isn’t wanted by Milan anymore.

Milan where linked to multiple names to sign this month, but the strongest was Jean-Philippe Mateta. However, this deal looked impossible, as Crystal Palace wanted 40 million euros for Mateta. The deal has now reopened thanks to Palace signing Jorgen Strand Larsen yesterday.

Luca Bianchin is now reporting that a move to Milan for Mateta is very close to completion. AC Milan raised their bid for Mateta to 35 million euros from 5 million euros to help complete the deal. Mateta choose a move to Milan, over staying in the Premier League with Nottingham Forest.

This isn’t the only good news for Milan, as Daniele Longo is reporting that Milan and Mateta have an agreement. This would see the two parties sign a four year deal, on a contract which will net Mateta 3.5 million euros per season. However, the clock is ticking as Milan try to complete the deal before the transfer deadline.

Juventus will likely be one of the busiest teams, in this summer transfer window as they look to build a new team for Luciano Spalletti. This summer for the Bianconeri will likely mirror the one that Thiago Motta had when he was hired. However, a lot of those signings have turned out unsuccessful for Juventus, which is something Spalletti and Comolli will hope to avoid.

Michele Di Gregorio is one of the names, that Juventus signed before Motta’s first season. Di Gregorio started off on fire for Juventus being an elite shot stopper. But his form has fallen off during this season, under Luciano Spalletti, and now could be replaced after this season.

Juventus, mainly Luciano Spalletti already have a name in mind to replace Di Gregorio. According to TuttoSport, Spalletti wants to sign Alisson Becker from Liverpool. The two have already worked together before Alisson signed for Liverpool for Roma, which is why he is pushing for the deal.

It is one of the main reasons that Alisson is open to making a move for Juventus. He also wants to have one more chance as a top European club, before making a move somewhere else to slow down before retirement, This has lead him to agreeing on a three year deal with Juventus.

Alisson three year deal will be worth, 4.5 million euros per season which is a figure that Juventus can afford to pay. Meanwhile, this is not all that needs to be done to complete a deal. Juventus will also have to agree to terms with Liverpool, who are willing to let Alisson go for 15-20 million euros.

This season has been one of the worst for Romelu Lukaku in his professional career. He started this season picking up an injury in pre season, which would see him delay the start of his season’s by three months. Lukaku would miss an additional two month not returning for Napoli until they played Juventus in January.

His recovery would keep him coming off the bench, playing pinch minutes for most of the rest of the season. This would see Lukaku score only one goal this season against Hellas Verona, as he missed more time with continuous injuries would plague his recovery.

Lukaku’s latest injury came while on international duty with the Belgian national team last month. This sparked controversy as he didn’t return to Naples for recovery until almost three weeks after it happened. Napoli’s relationship with Lukaku was soured because of this as they wanted him back immediately for recovery.

When, Lukaku did finally return he ignored Antonio Conte only speaking to the club backroom staff. Conte and Lukaku have been know to be inseparable in the past with Conte signing him for Inter Milan and now Napoli. At the same time, Rasmus Hojlund has been an excellent fill in to Lukaku as he has scored 10 league goals in 29 games.

This could lead to Napoli looking to sell Lukaku this summer to get rid of the problem all together. Matteo Moretto is now reporting that Lukaku could look to make a move back to Milan this summer. This comes as he has enjoyed the lifestyle there in the past.

However, a move to Inter Milan is unlikely as they have their four strikers set. Lautaro Martinez, Marcus Thuram, Pio Esposito and Ange Yoan Bonny is a solid core for Cristian Chivu. But, AC Milan do need a striker and Lukaku could be an option as Massimiliano Allegri wants a more conventional number nine.

Denzel Dumfries future has been one of the biggest talks of Inter Milan season so far. Dumfries spent 16 games sidelined for Inter this season, due to injury. The Nerazzurri saw how important he was as while Luis Henrique played roles none where as good as him.

His future has also been a talking point as he changed agent to Ali Barat during the course of this season. Barat is known for bringing players from Europe into the Premier League, and it looked like he would do the same for Dumfries. These talks where boosted by the fact that Dumfries has a 25 million release clause over his head this summer.

While there is no guarantee that Dumfries could leave Inter, as he enjoys playing and living in Milan. However, Inter need to be prepared in case he does leave the club. Tuttosport are now reporting that Inter are setting their eyes on Marco Palestra as the replacement for Inter.

However, it won’t be that simple for Inter Milan as he will return to Atalanta from loan at Cagliari. Atalanta will already sell Ederson this summer as he has already agreed personal terms with Atletico Madrid. Marco Carnesecchi could also be sold, but Atalanta will likely only sell one name.

This could see them keep Palestra this summer, which would make him unavailable for Inter. There is also the complication of the Premier League as English sides have been interested in signing Palestra. If a bid from the Premier League came in Inter would likely be unable to compete with them.
