Countdown. The market has entered its hottest phase, the one in which day and night no longer have any difference: in fact, every moment for purchases and sales can be the right one. Everyone is very active, starting withInter which yesterday he finally welcomed Eriksen. The official announcement will only come today but the Dane can already be considered a Nerazzurri player, as evidenced by the tour of medical checks he underwent yesterday. Conte can therefore enjoy a respectable reinforcement but woe to think it's over here.
After Young, Moses and Eriksen, the coach still wants a striker and a midfielder; Marotta has the task of finding the funds to satisfy him, otherwise he will end up with a big deal. The tip should be Giroud, with which there has already been an agreement for some time, but be careful Llorente, now leaving Naples. With the Azzurri, however, the sale of politan (signing in the Filmauro offices yesterday), demonstrating a hot, indeed boiling front, even if it is fair to reiterate that the Frenchman from Chelsea remains the first choice. De Laurentiis, however, gave Giuntoli a mandate to block Petagna o Pinamonti, deemed more suitable for the role of deputy Milik: in short, something is brewing…
The front with Verona is also hotter and hotter than after Rrahmani could lead to Plums: the offer (20 million plus 4 bonus) pleases the Scala family, who however could keep the player until the end of the championship. Returning to Inter, we said that Conte would also like a midfielder and this regardless of Eriksen. The dream remains Vidal but it is very difficult to achieve, easier to get to Kucka of Parma or ad aranguiz of Bayer Leverkusen, in any case it will only be possible in case of transfer of Vecino, in close negotiations with Ancelotti's Everton, who would bring a nice nest egg to the Nerazzurri's coffers, to be added to that of Gabigol, acquired outright by Flamengo.
Lots of frenzy also on the other side of the canal, where the Milan works to sell his redundancies. Friday, tonight's starter in the Italian Cup, has been probed by Tottenham, Chelsea and PSG, but at the moment no one has come to offer the 30 million requested by Maldini and Boban. Scenario similar to package, for which in fact we are looking for an alternative solution: the exchange with Bernardeschi it could allow Milan and Juve to score a nice capital gain, even if the salary problem remains, given that the black and white earns 4 million a year plus bonuses compared to the Brazilian's 2 million. The most imminent sale, however, is that of Suso, now close to Sevilla with the 18-month loan formula, at the end of which the redemption obligation will start: the clubs are negotiating precisely on this (we are talking about a minimum of attendance) but the operation is hot.
Let's go back to Juve, protagonist of another exchange: it is about De Sciglio Kurzawa, another operation that would allow capital gains and reinforcement. But what most inflames the imagination is the Turin-Barcelona section, with Emre Can towards Camp Nou e Rakitic in its place. Difficult for a whole series of reasons (ages and wages are very different), in any case the German pushes to leave: Borussia Dortmund is also on him, for some time on pole to grab him for 25 million.
Closure dedicated to Roma, who closed the purchase of the defender yesterday Ibanez from Atalanta (loan with obligation to buy set at 8 million plus 2 bonus) and the Elche midfielder Villar, expected today in the capital. Fonseca then waits for an offensive winger (it could be Carles perez but Barça insists on maintaining the right to repurchase), but the news that inflames the Giallorossi people is another and concerns Dan Friedkin: the American, already nicknamed "Mr Toyota", has reached an agreement with Pallotta and is ready to take over by mid-February (800 million the total figure). When the market is over, fine, but just in time to start planning the Rome of the future.
