Overview

• Juventus and PSG are in intensive, late-stage negotiations, with reports indicating Paris has lowered its demand and a loan with a right that could turn into an obligation under conditions is on the table.
• Director general Damien Comolli signaled caution on spending due to UEFA rules and noted the club could proceed with Dusan Vlahovic and Jonathan David if terms remain too onerous.
• Nicolas Jackson has moved up Juventus’ shortlist as the primary alternative, with contacts also maintained for RB Leipzig’s Lois Openda.
• Atletico Madrid’s pursuit of Nico Gonzalez remains tied to an outgoing move for Conor Gallagher, as Juventus hold out for around €30 million and have resisted a straight loan.
• Across Serie A, Milan advanced Cristopher Nkunku’s medicals for a deal reported at about €40 million, Napoli is close to Rasmus Hojlund in a €45 million loan-plus-conditional buy, and the window closes at 20:00 on Monday, September 1.
