Overview

  • Juventus’s loan-with-obligation agreement for Randal Kolo Muani is nearing completion, involving a €55–60 million total fee and a five-year contract at around €7 million per season plus bonuses.
  • The club plans to balance its books by sending Douglas Luiz to Nottingham Forest on a loan-to-buy structure valued at approximately €35–39 million.
  • Napoli confirmed a high-grade lesion of Lukaku’s left rectus femoris and is urgently targeting a short-term striker addition, with names like Joshua Zirkzee, Nicholas Jackson, Danylo Dovbyk and Dusan Vlahovic under consideration.
  • Inter’s sale of Nicola Zalewski to Atalanta for about €17 million has freed funds, but negotiations for Ademola Lookman remain stalled over valuation disagreements.
  • Serie A clubs are increasingly using loan-to-buy structures to comply with UEFA financial fair play rules and spread transfer costs as the window closes.
