Lorenzo Pellegrini not keen on West Ham option
Coming off two injuries, the Giallorossi number 7 has yet to train with Gian Piero Gasperini and has lost the captain's armband.
The Premier League has expressed interest in him in recent hours, particularly West Ham, but according to Sky Sport, the English option is to be ruled out, at least for now.
Pellegrini refuses to listen to offers and wants to stay in Rome.
He's currently working on his full recovery and playing his cards right under his new manager.
His goal is to secure a call-up before the international break, but regarding his contract, which expires on June 30, 2026, there have been no contacts between the parties.

Liverpool to agree fantastic transfer in next HOURS
Liverpool are closing in on a fantastic transfer that should be wrapped up in the next few hours. This one deserves applause. Liverpool are reportedly closing in on the transfer of Giovanni Leoni from Parma. The Reds are in desperate need of a new centre-back and the teenager fits the bill. Jarell Quansah's exit has left the squad light, after all. Liverpool sold the defender for a very good price but didn't immediately move for a replacement.

Boosting the numbers at centre-back is also a priority because of Ibrahima Konate's situation. He's now in the final year of his contract and a move to Real Madrid is on the cards. Liverpool hope to renew his contract but if they don't, they won't want to leave themselves scrambling for someone in 2026. Then there's Virgil van Dijk - now 34 and coming to the end of his elite level. Investing in youth is absolutely crucial and Leoni is certainly that. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range Liverpool close in on Giovanni Leoni Ben Jacobs reports that a deal between Liverpool and Parma for Leoni 'could be finalised in 24 hours or less'. He says the parties are all very close to an agreement and we won't be waiting long. At this point, Leoni looks destined for Anfield where he'll get to learn under his idol, Van Dijk. Virtually everything about this transfer makes sense for Liverpool, in fact. Leoni is still only 18 but broke into Parma's starting XI last season, appearing 14 times in Serie A. He's unquestionably one of the best wonderkid centre-backs in world football - if not the best.

Serbian soccer club Partizan punished by UEFA for fans' Kosovo banner and offensive chants
NYON, Switzerland — UEFA fined Partizan Belgrade more than $100,000 on Wednesday and ordered part of the Serbian club's stadium closed at one European game for fans' racist and political statements. Fans displayed a 'Kosovo is Serbia' banner and chanted discriminatory and offensive slogans at two home games in Conference League qualifying rounds. The order to close a 10,000-seat section of Partizan's stadium will apply at the team's next home game in a European competition. Partizan faces possible elimination on Thursday in Edinburgh, trailing 2-0 from the first leg against Hibernian in the Conference League third qualifying round. UEFA said its disciplinary panel fined Partizan a total of 90,250 euros ($105,500) for incidents at home games in recent weeks against Hibernian and Olexandriya of Ukraine. The charges included 'racist and/or discriminatory behavior,' displaying an illicit banner and throwing objects, UEFA said. Serbia has never recognized the declaration of independence in 2008 by Kosovo, the neighboring former province which has been a member of UEFA and world soccer body FIFA since 2016. ___ AP soccer:
