Barcelona just flat-out rejected Milan’s €20 million offer for Gerard Martín. The Blaugrana are reportedly demanding a massive €35 million, making it clear they’re not letting their 2004-born centre-back go easily. Gianluigi Longari from Sportitalia said Barça is unwilling to part with him, period. This isn’t just a negotiation, it’s a statement.
Juventus’ Goalie Hunt Is Wild, And Romero’s Outta There?
The goalie carousel for Juventus is spinning. Forget those Chevalier links; RMC Sport might have been off, as no real negotiations are happening. Fabrizio Romano confirmed, “At the moment, there are no talks for Chevalier.” He suggested keeping Suzuki and Vicario in mind for Juve’s goalkeeping. Plus, Matteo Moretto reminds us Dibu Martinez shouldn’t be forgotten, with next week being “make-or-break” for that situation.
Over at Inter, the Romero situation is tense. Ausilio confirmed negotiations, but Tottenham is playing hardball for the centre-back, asking €50 million. Romero’s wages are €6.5 million net, adding to the work needed. De Zerbi was categorical: “Anyone who is not happy and proud to be here can leave,” implying Romero is outside his plans. Meanwhile, Buongiorno’s injury has Napoli eyeing Lucumì, who is nearing the end of his contract. Bologna’s CEO confirmed he can leave, with a valuation of €25-30 million.
Rashford to Roma Is “Impossible,” But Lazio Makes A Push
Roma’s dream of landing Rashford is practically dead in the water. While Dovbyk talks with Domenico Tedesco over a Bologna move, contacts for Rashford hit a wall. His salary costs are too high, and the player hasn’t opened the door to Serie A. Rashford will also be assessed by Carrick during training camp.
Lazio is making moves, stepping up their push for Noah Markmann, the 19-year-old Danish U21 defender from Nordsjaelland. The deal could be €5 million plus €1 million in bonuses, as Gattuso gave the green light after watching Markmann’s videos. Fiorentina’s Matias Moreno is closer to leaving, with Venezia in talks. They’ve also set Dodo’s price at €15 million despite his contract nearing expiry.
So, what’s next? This transfer market is barely starting, already showing big rejections and clear warnings. Every team is looking to make their move. Next week is massive for some deals, and we’ll be watching every update.
