Photo-finish transfer market: two days of fire for Inter, Juve and Roma looking for the final sprint

Final attempt by Inter for Palacio or Zarate after the arrival of Forlan – Elia coup for Juve which however fails the purchase of Rhodolfo and today explores the Russian lead for the exchange between Bonucci (and perhaps Pepe) and Bruno Alves – The Rome courts Pjanic and Gago – Zamparini like Cellino: he wants to fire yet another coach (Pioli) before the championship

VIVIANO TO GENOA IN JANUARY, KUCKA TO INTER IN JUNE.
THE NEGOTIATIONS FOR PALACIO CONTINUE, BUT WATCH OUT FOR ZARATE.
SANTON TO NEWCASTLE, MUNTAR TOWARDS FULHAM.

Yesterday was a very busy day for the Inter managers. While waiting to embrace Diego Forlan, who arrived in Milan yesterday evening to begin the Nerazzurri adventure, Branca and Ausilio received Genoa sporting director Stefano Capozzucca in Corso Vittorio Emanuele. After a long negotiation, the parties reached an agreement for the exchange of co-ownership of Emanuele Viviano and Juraj Kucka. The first will arrive at Genoa in January (he could then be loaned to some other team) the second instead will remain in Genoa until June 30th. If Inter wanted to sign him sooner, they could still negotiate with Preziosi in the next winter transfer window, a bit like what happened last year with Ranocchia. On the other hand, there is no agreement (at least for now) on the Palacio front, with the rossoblu (strong of Roma's interest) who confirmed the initial request for 10 million. Inter continue to negotiate, but if they don't receive positive answers today, they could turn decisively on Mauro Zarate. Lotito is asking for 20 million, and has already rejected the Nerazzurri's loan offer with the right to buy. The agreement could be reached with an onerous loan (4 million immediately) with an obligation to buy (16 million).

An important day also on the transfer front: Davide Santon flew to Newcastle to listen to the proposal of the English club, which has already reached an agreement with Inter on the basis of 6 million. English future also for Sulley Muntari, who is negotiating with Fulham.

JUVE: ELIA TAKEN! FOUND THE AGREEMENT WITH HAMBURG.
FUE RHODOLFO, AT LEAST FOR NOW…
ASTORI ASKED, CELLINO SAID NO. ZENIT INSISTS: ALVES FOR BONUCCI.

In the end Marotta made it. To do what? To give Conte the left winger that was missing, the one that, in Juve's plans, should make the black and whites make the leap in quality. Eljero Elia is in fact a Juventus player. The agreement between the Old Lady and Hamburg was found overnight, on the basis of 10 million euros. Barring sensational twists and turns, the Dutch full-back will be in Italy between today and tomorrow to undergo medical tests and sign the contract that will bind him to the Turin team.

Meanwhile, the purchase of Rhodolfo, the Brazilian central defender for whom Juventus had offered 8 million, has vanished. San Paolo said no, at least for now. In fact, in January the parties could meet again. But Juve must get a central defender right away, which is why Marotta continues to work frantically. Yesterday Juventus contacted Cagliari to ask for Davide Astori. Marotta offered Cellino a loan with the right to buy, but the rossoblu number one said no. In the meantime contacts continue with Zenit St. Petersburg for the Bonucci – Bruno Alves exchange, with the outsider Simone Pepe to always be kept in consideration. The Russian executives could arrive in Turin today to close the deal. In the meantime, the name of Gastaldello has popped up, who was "caught" by the cameras yesterday during a long conversation with Pasquale Sensibile, the sporting director of Sampdoria. Were they evaluating the Juventus hypothesis?
In the meantime, the Bianconeri continue to work on the transfer front as well. Marseille offered 5 million for Amauri and also offered the player a two-year contract. However, there are several teams on the Italian-Brazilian side: from Parma to Palermo, passing through Fiorentina. Juve hopes that the player will accept one by Wednesday.

ROME, FINAL CLOSE FOR PJANIC AND GAGO.
HURRY HOURS FOR THE RENEWAL OF DE ROSSI.
BORRIELLO – PSG: STILL NO AGREEMENT!

Hectic hours also for Sabatini. The Giallorossi sports director is working tirelessly to buy those players who would complete the Roma transfer market. The number one target is Miralem Pjanic, Lyon's Bosnian midfielder. To get it, the Giallorossi have come to offer 8 million plus Fabio Simplicio's card. But on the midfield front, Sabatini won't stop there: in fact, the sports director has asked Real Madrid for Fernando Gago, and the negotiation seems quite advanced.

Important days also on the De Rossi front, who must decide whether or not to accept the renewal proposal sent to him by the club. Thomas DiBenedetto has come to offer him a five-year contract at 5,5 million a season, a figure that would make him the highest paid player in the squad. From the capital, comforting news arrives directly from CEO Claudio Fenucci: "We want to sign before the start of the championship".

Unforeseen (and perhaps definitive) complications regarding the negotiation between Roma and PSG for Marco Borriello. Sabatini continued to negotiate until late in the evening, but then, once he understood that there was no agreement, he said goodbye to Leonardo and returned to Italy. It remains to be seen whether or not negotiations can resume between today and tomorrow. Time is running out, but Roma absolutely need to sell (not sell off) Borriello. Only in this way will he be able to give the definitive assault to Rodrigo Palacio, the winger forward requested by Luis Enrique.

AC MILAN IS LOOKING FOR A LOAN MIDFIELDER.
POLLS FOR KHEDIRA, MONTOLIVO AND KEITA.
FROM SPAIN THE DREAM IS TURNED OFF: “KAKA' STAYS IN MADRID”

Ariedo Braida said it clearly: "This summer we won't buy anyone anymore". In fact, Milan are looking for a midfielder on loan. Seriously, that's the way it is. The Rossoneri, having lost Flamini for at least 6 months, would like to replace him with a new player, but if the right opportunity doesn't arise, Allegri would stay with these men at least until January. However, Galliani is trying, as confirmed by the rumors coming from Spain, which tell of a Milan interested in Sami Khedira and Seydou Keita. Players of great talent and perspective, but it seems unlikely that Real Madrid and Barcelona can deprive themselves of them, moreover on loan. It is also difficult to get to Riccardo Montolivo, who by now seems resigned to spending a year of transition in Florence, with the rosy prospect of freeing himself on a free transfer next June.

On the other hand, the dream of seeing Ricardo Kakà in the Rossoneri seems to have vanished. From Madrid to Catalan newspapers, the chorus is unanimous: "Kaka stays in Madrid". In reality, Real would gladly do without his salary of 10 million a year, but the free loan hypothesis to Milan, with salary paid in part by Perez, would be a real "bloodbath".

NAPLES: RUIZ LEAVES ONLY IF JUAN ARRIVES.
ZARATE REJECTS THE GENOA HYPOTHESIS.
ZAMPARINI RECALLS DELIO ROSSI, PIOLI'S FUTURE HANGING BY A THREAD!

De Laurentiis has promised another shot before the end of the market. Most likely, it will be a defender, who should be the Brazilian Juan, the Roma player's only namesake. In fact, this Juan is only 20 years old and plays for Internacional de Porto Alegre. If Napoli manages to close the deal, Victor Ruiz will be sold to Valencia, with whom there is already an agreement on the basis of 8 million.

Tasty market background regarding Lazio. The biancocelesti had received a proposal from Genoa for Mauro Zarate, but the latter refused even before listening to it. In fact, the Argentine wants to leave Lazio, but only for a top tier club. But that doesn't seem to be there, provided that no news arrives from the Nerazzurri side of Milan.

Finally, what is happening in Palermo is sensational. Maurizio Zamparini in fact, would have decided to exempt Stefano Pioli, contested by the fans after the disastrous pre-season (with elimination from the Europa League included). The volcanic rosanero patron would have already contacted Claudio Ranieri, receiving a dry no and Delio Rossi, for what would be a sensational return, after the double exemption last season.
