Juve eye president as Laporta rejects Lautaro, Napoli plan signings

With Serie A paused for international duties, Juventus may appoint Ginevra Elkann as its next president, Inter’s Joan Laporta has ruled out a move for Lautaro Martínez, and Napoli are already scouting winter targets, while fans can watch the Serie BKT on OneFootball for €9.99 a month.

Serie A on hold and Nations League excitement

Serie A has been suspended to accommodate international fixtures, giving space for the Nations League clash between France and Italy. The countdown to the Friday night encounter is already building anticipation among fans across Europe.

Juventus presidency and Milan training updates

Juventus could see a new face at the top after Giovanni Carnevali’s appointment as CEO. Ginevra Elkann, the 1979‑born London native known for work in culture and entertainment, is emerging as the leading candidate to replace Gianluca Ferrero as president.

Milan have resumed training at Milanello despite 16 players being away on international duty. Coach Ruben Amorim will use the break to refine his tactical principles, while Samuel Chukwueze enjoys a rest period and Saelemaekers is being examined after a sprained right ankle, with tests ruling out any lesions.

Transfer rumours: Inter, Napoli, Roma, Lazio and Fiorentina

Inter president Joan Laporta confirmed he personally contacted Giuseppe Marotta to inquire about Lautaro Martínez, but Marotta immediately shut the door, stating the Argentine is not for sale. Out of respect for Inter chief, Laporta has ended any further pursuit of the striker.

Italy seeks advantage in the Nations League against Turkey

Napoli are already planning ahead of the January transfer window, with club chief Aurelio De Laurentiis, coach Massimiliano Allegri and sporting director Giovanni Manna in constant contact. The club are monitoring young winger Asane Sow, Monaco midfielder Mamadou Coulibaly, Rennes’ versatile Sebastian Szymanski and Udinese defender Oumar Solet as possible additions.

Roma have resumed training under coach Francesco Gasperini, who is looking forward to the October 11 match against Como. Midfielder Bryan Cristante appears closest to returning and could rejoin the squad by week’s end, while Donyell Malen battles a knee issue and Wesley deals with right‑thigh discomfort.

Lazio’s medical department defenders Mattia Rovella and Daniele Marusic are expected to be available for the upcoming trip to Turin to face Juventus. The only remaining doubt concerns forward Rasmus Gudmundsson, who suffered a shoulder injury on international duty and may be sidelined for around two months pending further evaluation.

Italy rebounds after 1‑4 defeat with Nations League victory

Fiorentina attempted to sign Palmeiras left‑back Arthur, a 2005‑born Brazilian who made 29 appearances in 2026. The club offered roughly €13 million, outbidding Olympiacos’s €10 million bid, but Palmeiras rejected both proposals, leaving the player close to renewing his contract with the Brazilian side.
