His price tag is between €7m and €10m, but he's not the only right-back on Juventus' agenda, as the Bianconeri are also monitoring Silvan Widmer (Mainz, formerly of Udinese), Dodò (Fiorentina), and Marco Palestra (Atalanta).

Leeds United interested in recruiting AC Milan forward Noah Okafor
Leeds United are interested in recruiting the services of AC Milan forward Noah Okafor this summer, according to The Athletic. Leeds manager Daniel Farke still wants to bolster his attack at the Elland Road club despite closing in on a move for Dominic Calvert-Lewin after reaching an agreement in principle to sign the former Everton striker. Okafor has also emerged as an option, but the Whites have yet to approach the Serie A club. The 25-year-old Switzerland international could be sold as he spent the second half of last season on loan at Napoli. The Leeds target only made four appearances for the club, but he was part of the squad that won the Serie A title. Okafor can play as a number 9 and on both wings, and the West Yorkshire club could do with his versatility and experience. They want to remain regulars in the Premier League after their last relegation, and they need quality players to become mainstays in the English top-flight. A deal for Okafor could be a huge boost to their survival chances this term.

Liverpool reach agreement to sign Giovanni Leoni from Parma
Liverpool have reached an agreement with Parma to sign defender Giovanni Leoni. The Premier League club will pay a fee in the region of £26million (€30m) plus add-ons for the 18-year-old Italian youth international. The player has been given permission to travel to Merseyside to agree personal terms and undergo a medical, which is expected to begin on Thursday. Advertisement The club's plan is for Leoni to be immediately integrated into the first-team set-up for the upcoming season with any suggestion of a loan move completely ruled out. Leoni only joined Parma last summer and went on to make 17 appearances, including 14 from the start, in Serie A, as the newly-promoted club finished 16th. He has been capped by Italy's Under-19 side, and was contracted to Parma until summer 2029. Liverpool have been looking for defensive reinforcements since selling Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen last month with the move for Leoni in conjunction with the pursuit of Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace. 'The clubs have agreed a deal but he hasn't signed for us yet. The moment he signs for us, I can go into more detail,' head coach Arne Slot said of Leoni in his press conference on Thursday. 'And the other one is of course (Guehi) the answer you always get from me. He's not our player. Unfortunately he was the captain of the team who we lost against last Sunday. If you want to have any talks about him you should go to Palace, to (Oliver) Glasner and ask him his opinion about him.' Slot only has two fully fit central defensive options at his disposal ahead of the Premier League opener against Bournemouth on Friday in Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate, although Joe Gomez has returned to training after an Achilles injury. The Premier League champions have enjoyed a busy summer with Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong arriving from Bayer Leverkusen alongside Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt and Milos Kerkez from Bournemouth while the club maintain an ongoing interest in Newcastle United's Alexander Isak.

Roma to consider offers for Tommaso Baldanzi
Tommaso Baldanzi's future at Roma appears to be at risk. According to Il Messaggero, Roma are ready to consider offers for the 22-year-old midfielder. The ex-Empoli player has struggled to obtain consistent minutes under Gian Piero Gasperini in Roma's preseason friendlies so far. Baldanzi played in 41 matches for Roma last season across Serie A, Coppa Italia, and the Europa League, scoring two goals and two assists. He was often used during the match, and in fact played a total of 1,366 minutes last season. Arriving from Empoli in January 2024, he has so far scored two goals in 59 appearances for the Giallorossi.
