AS Roma have been one of the most changing teams in Serie A over the last two or three years. Since the 2023-24 season Roma have had five managers with Jose Mourhino being replaced by interim Daniele De Rossi who took his job. De Rossi was made permeant but his stint at Roma didn’t last for long as Ivan Juric replaced him.

Juric had a terrible stint in the capital being replaced after only 12 games, by Claudio Raineri who would coach Roma until the end of the season. Raineri moved up to the board hiring Gian Piero Gasperini before the start of this season. This has mean’t that there has been plenty of team changes in transfer windows to support this.

However, through this there is two Italian constants for Roma. Bryan Cristante and Gianlcua Mancini have been main stays for the Gillanorossi over the last decade. Mancini has been with Roma since 2019 while Cristante has been there since a year before joining in 2018. However, their time in the capital is on short notice as they both have expiring contracts.

Both players have contracts that expire at the end of next season, but they are set to stay for longer. This comes from a report from Nico Schira which states that both players have a contract ready to extend their time with Roma. Roma has a deal which will keep the two Azzurri team mates with them until then end of 2029.

These contracts could be there last with Roma, bringing them past a decade in the capital. Mancini will also be 32 while Cristante will be 33 meaning that they will likely brining an end to their time at Roma. However, it is not impossible for them to play past as many top players have but if they can is yet too be seen.

Fiorentina have had one of their worst seasons in their history as they have spent most of their campaign in the relegation zone. However, they have slowly clawed themselves from 20th to 17th to try and stay in Serie A. A relegation would be disastrous for a club the size and with the wage bill of Fiorentina, but they are fighting to survive.

This lead to some clubs thinking that some of their key players would be for sale in January, as they look to dump some wages for the possibility of them incase they down. Moise Kean was the main sought after but there was very real rumours surrounding the striker. Al Hilal had serious interest as they look to replace Marcos Leonardo before he joined Atletico Madrid.

There was a less known name in rumours which was Niccolo Fortini. The youngster has emerged for Fiorentina has already seen some big interest from around Serie a. Napoli and Roma have already shown interest but there interest has been rumours at best, with no official offers being made to sign Fortini. However, Fiorentina aren’t waiting for someone to do so.

This comes as Fiorentina want to secure his future with the Viola, so they are set to offer a contract extension to Fortini. This comes from Nico Schira which states that Fiorentina has offered Fortini a deal until the end of the 2029/30 season. This is as Fiorentina are trying to entice Fortini with Fiorentina despite oncoming interest.

His new offer will likely come with a pay rise to reward him for his improvements this season. A higher wage will also stop other teams as there offers will be less enticing to the young Italian. The deal also comes with added job security for the young Italian, which will see his future secure in case he is unlucky enough to have a long term injury, something more common in football now a days.

Juventus has slowly rebuilding over the last few years, as their team has been one of Juventus’s worst in the last few years. There has been very few light spots in recent times. But the brightest shining one has definitely been Kenan Yildiz, as he has burst onto the scene for Juventus over the last few years.

This has lead to offers coming in from all across Europe, however Juventus is trying to keep Yildiz. Yildiz is also open to the move being a boyhood Alessandro Del Piero and Juventus fan. When a player of Yildiz’s quality wants to stay at your club you tend to try and keep him.

Juventus’s desire led him to giving him the number 10 shirt for the start of this season, but now they are going further. Juventus are ready to offer Kenan Yildiz a contract extension. This comes from reports from TuttoSport as Juventus are set to offer Yildiz a deal until 2031.

Juventus are also hoping to convince Yildiz to take the deal by increasing his wage to 6 million euros per season. Most of these wages will be cleared up, when Dusan Vlahovic leave’s Juventus. (Read all of the details to Dusan leaving) This improved wage is key to Juventus’s keeping Yildiz.

This is especially true considering the fact that most of his other teams can make better offers. English and Spanish teams, can offer Yildiz increased wages then Juventus can. So, this raise while it still falls short of the other offers it is likely the best Juventus can offer right now.
