The 2026-2027 Serie A season is barely underway, and things are already going absolutely wild with Fiorentina sacking Fabio Grosso after just three games in charge, bringing back Paolo Vanoli to lead the team. Talk about hitting the panic button early! This follows a summer where six teams, including Napoli, already swapped out their head coaches. Clearly, nobody is messing around this year.
Inter And Roma Are Already Making Jaw-Dropping Comebacks
Inter, the 2025-2026 Scudetto winners, are showing exactly why they are the team to beat. Their incredible comeback against Napoli, where they clawed back from two goals down in the second half to win 3-2, was pure fireworks. Cristian Chivu could unleash Marcus Thuram, Curtis Jones, Carlos Augusto, and Hakan Calhanoglu, and that depth is just ridiculous. They truly are the strongest team in the league. Right behind them, AS Roma is also pulling off some magic! They grabbed another win against Atalanta, thanks to an exciting comeback in the final minutes at the Stadio Olimpico. Seriously, it feels like Roma can absolutely challenge Inter for the title this season. And then there’s Como, moving up one spot to third. If you had high expectations for them already, the signing of Moise Kean just blew them out of the water. He already delivered an assist to Assane Diao in his debut during their 4-1 win against Genoa. Even Genoa’s coach, Daniele De Rossi, admitted Como was the strongest team they had met so far. Not surprising at all.
AC Milan Stalls And Napoli’s Problems Are Piling Up Fast
It is not all sunshine and rainbows across the league though. AC Milan slipped a spot after a 1-1 draw against Juventus, showing Ruben Amorim’s team is still a major work in progress. Their new summer signings, Diego Moreira and Goncalo Ramos, have yet to prove their importance. The only real bright spot for them? 20-year-old winger Alphadjo Cisse, who scored his second goal of the season in Turin over the weekend. Meanwhile, Napoli is facing some serious early worries. Massimiliano Allegri’s squad has already lost two of their opening three games. And to make matters worse, they are dealing with injuries, including Scott McTominay, who needs corrective surgery for a mild benign arrhythmia. That is a tough blow for a team already struggling.
The Serie A season just kicked off, and it is clear some teams are flying high while others are already fighting for their lives. Napoli’s next home game against Bologna at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona is already make-or-break, especially with McTominay sidelined. Atalanta, despite losing to Roma, is improving week by week. You just know this season is going to be packed with more drama, so keep those eyes glued to the pitch!
