Real Madrid and Barcelona looking into signing Roma full back
AS Roma had a rocky start to last season, seeing Daniele De Rossi fired early in their campaign. This then lead to the hiring of Claudio Ranieri as a caretaker to get them to the end of the season. He managed to turned Roma around nearly leading them to a top four finish, missing out on the final day.
It was then announced that he would step back as manager and move upstairs to a role on Roma’s board. His first job was to find his replacement, in which Roma did well, hiring Gian Piero Gasperini. Gasperini was the most wanted manager in Serie A with Juventus also trying to hire him.

The two of them then looked to build a team for Gasperini. They where plenty of rumours for who they would bring in, however they could only sign so many players as they had a limited budget due to missing out on the Champions League. This led to bring many of their limited signings on loan to buy deals.
However, a lot of these loanees haven’t worked out at Roma so far, likely being sent back to their parent clubs. Roma did make one full purchase in the summer when they signed Wesley Franca from Flamengo. Roma managed to beat Juventus in a race to sign Wesley
The signing of Wesley has turned out to be their best by miles as the full back has flourished at Roma. However, Roma have a new issue as they could be forced to sell him already in January. This is due to some big clubs being interested in signing him Wesley who could be interested in the move.
This comes from a report from TalkSPORT, which state that both Real Madrid and FC Barcelona could try and sign Wesley. Barcelona have had defensive struggles all season and could see Wesley as a way to fix that, meanwhile for Madrid, Trent Alexander Arnold has had a slow start in Spain so a signing of Wesley could see him replace Trent or them split minutes.

Juventus becoming optimistic over chances of a renewal with Dusan Vlahovic
Dusan Vlahovic looked almost certain to leave Juventus at the start of this season, as contract renewal looked hopeless. Juventus simply couldn’t meet his wage demands so instead they signed replacements. Jonathan David and Lois Openda where bought in who were seen as new starting strikers.
But, both have struggled to hit the ground running for Juventus this campaign struggling to provide goals. Jonathan David will likely stay in Turin as he has been the main starter for Luciano Spalletti. Openda however, will likely leave Turin which could have the Bianconeri back to square one in there replacement search.

Expect for the fact that they may not have to replace Vlahovic at all as he could stay in Turin. This came as Vlahovic suffered an abductor injury for Juventus in November of last season, which saw him miss 21 games. Europe’s big clubs like AC Milan, bayern and Chelsea who did want to sign Vlahovic all lost interest while he wasn’t playing due to injury.
Corriere Dello Sport is now reporting that Juventus will have a fresh set of talks with Vlahovic is they aim to keep him in Turin. However, the deal is not as straightforward as it soons as they two parties still have disagreements. Mainly over salary as Dusan wants 12 million euros per season to stay.
Juventus are hoping to pay Vlahovic closer to a six million euro per season sum. This would put him on par with both Jonathan David and Kenan Yildiz despite him being a favourite of Luciano Spalletti’s. Vlahovic will have to decide soon if he is willing to stay with Juventus a figure nearly half of his asking price or make a move elsewhere, before it is too late.

However, Fabrizio Romano has labelled these rumours completely false on his youtube channel.

Liverpool have already begun their search and have Pulisic mind as an option for this summer. However, they are still have multiple names in mind with Kvicaha Kvaratskhelia being on their list according to reports. Liverpool could face competition if they decide to sign Pulisic this summer as Tottenham.
Tottenham have recently appointed Roberto De Zerbi as a new head coach and he will likely stay there into the summer. They will look to build a new more dynamic attack and Pulisic could be a key name for doing so. Especially if he is put up for sale by AC Milan this summer.
However Massimiliano Allegri considers his “Captain America” close to unsellable for Milan this summer. However, an offer of 60 million euros or more could be enough to do the trick for Milan’s ownership. This a figure that both Premier League sides should be able to match.
