Watch Atalanta-Juventus on OneFootball: buy the match here for 2.99 euros.
Just days before the start of the new Serie A season, Tudor's boys beat Next Gen 2-0. Douglas Luiz and Vlahovic scored, but the match held more than a few surprises.
🎯 Douglas Luiz scores: a message to Tudor?
The real surprise was Douglas Luiz, who played behind Vlahovic: in the 15th minute, the Brazilian found the net with a header, taking advantage of a cross from the left after his own shot was blocked.
A goal that also sends a clear signal about his future: there is real interest from the Premier League in the midfielder, but in the meantime, a goal and a message for the future?
😱 Boos rain down on Vlahovic
Just a few minutes later, Vlahovic also had the chance to celebrate in front of the home fans for the last time (?). However, the Serbian can't put a very tough period behind him, and the crowd doesn't forgive him.
Dusan, targeted by the Bianconeri fans because of a massive salary that makes his transfer impossible and blocks Juve's transfer market, shoots way over the bar and the crowd doesn't forgive: the rain of boos is inevitable.
👋 A goal that feels like goodbye
However, the 2000-born striker didn't lack character, and in the 33rd minute he finally scored the goal that silenced the boos.
The Serbian was sent through on goal by Douglas Luiz and this time, one-on-one with Mangiapoco, he didn't miss.
🔚 Pitch invasion stops the match at 51'
Juve returned to the locker room with a 2-0 lead that would prove final: just six minutes into the second half, in fact, the usual pitch invasion by the Bianconeri fans forced the final whistle.
The whole Stadium poured onto the pitch to embrace their idols: Juventus beat the second team, and it's a big party in Turin.

Arrivederci, JTA!
During his three seasons with the Golden State Warriors, Juan Toscano-Anderson was the only Mexican-American player in the NBA. Now, his professional basketball career is taking him out of North America entirely. According to 'Il Piccolo,' which is a local newspaper in Trieste, Italy and not a magazine devoted to small woodwind instruments, JTA will be portando il suo talento nel Mar Adriatico — that is, taking his talents to the Adriatic Sea. He's agreed to a deal with Pallacanestro Trieste, a team based in Trieste that plays in Italy's Serie A, the top professional league. Toscano-Anderson was a member of the Warriors' 2022 title team after absolutely clawing his way into the NBA. Born and raised in Oakland, JTA went undrafted out of Marquette in 2015, then spent the first three seasons of his pro career playing for teams in Mexico and Venezuela, so he's no stranger to playing internationally. He joined the Santa Cruz Warriors in the fall of 2018, then made his NBA debut in 2020, two months shy of his 27th birthday. By the 2021-22 season, Toscano-Anderson was a part of the rotation, playing 73 games that season and starting six. Though undersized as a 6-foot-6 forward, JTA's high basketball IQ, quality defense, and screen-setting were valuable for a Warriors team still trying to operate on 'two timelines.' He was athletic enough to participate in the NBA's Slam Dunk Contest, and in 2021 made one of the most impressive out-of-bounds saves you'll ever see. While we're here, let's watch him dunk on Andre Drummond. Toscano-Anderson signed with the Los Angeles Lakers before the 2022-23 season, but didn't find his niche like he did as a Warrior. He was a throw-in in the deal that sent Russell Westbrook out of L.A. in exchange for Forever Warrior D'Angelo Russell at midseason. JTA finished the season with the Utah Jazz, played a few games for the Sacramento Kings in 2023-24, then spent last season with the Mexico City Capitanes of the G League. JTA will be forever beloved in the city of Oakland and among Warriors fans, and it's truly impressive to carve out a 10-year pro career anywhere after going undrafted. But it goes to show how difficult it is to stay in the NBA. If Malcolm Brogdon, the Sixth Man of the Year two years ago, still can't find an NBA home, it's incredibly tough for a guy like Toscano-Anderson. He'll be able to see a former Warrior teammate in Serie A. Nico Mannion plays for Olimpia Milano, who competes in both Serie A and the EuroLeague, though the Warriors have held onto his rights. We wish Juan Toscano-Anderson a fond, 'Arrivederci!' Let's hope that Serie A has a dunk contest.

Corriere dello Sport: Roma is Not Selling Koné
The past 24 hours served as a reminder to us all that rumors are just that—rumors. In the wake of yesterday's fantastic (in the unbelievable sense of the word) news that Roma and Inter Milan were engaged in transfer negotiations for Roma's French midfielder Manu Koné, many Giallorossi fans (myself included) were fit to be tied at the thought of the club sacrificing the 24-year-old talent. But here we are a day later, and the Corriere dello Sport has just soothed our collective nerves: According to Corriere, Roma has no intention of selling Koné and, in fact, never received the rumored €40 million plus bonuses offer bandied about the Romaverse yesterday. Of course, as we know all too well, the rumor pendulum can swing just as easily the other way—it's a fickle and vicious cycle—but for now, it seems like we can breathe a sigh of relief. Koné should loom large in Gasperini's midfield this year and stands every chance at cementing himself as one of the best midfielders in Serie A. We'll continue to monitor this story, but lord willing, this will be the last of it.

Report – Inter Milan & Roma Were Ready To Agree Deal For France Star Before U-Turn

This according to Italian outlet They report that Roma owners the Friedkins were crucial to the decision to walk away from negotiations to sell the Frenchman. Yesterday, news emerged that Inter Milan are interested in Roma midfielder Manu Kone. The Frenchman has come into the Nerazzurri's sights as a reinforcement in holding midfield. Reports indicate that Inter put a bid of around €45 million on the table. However, Roma have decided to reject that offer from the Nerazzurri.

Report – Inter & Roma Had Manu Kone Agreement Before U-Turn MILAN, ITALY – NOVEMBER 17: Manu Kone' of France in action during the UEFA Nations League 2024/25 League A Group A2 match between Italy and France at on November 17, 2024 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) According to the Gazzetta dello Sport, though, Roma had initially been open to selling Kone. Inter approached the Giallorossi recently. And they received permission to start negotiating with the player. And Kone himself would have been more than willing to make the move. The 24-year-old had an informal agreement with the Nerazzurri already. However, today Roma have made something of an about face as far as Inter's interest in Kone. The Giallorossi board spent the day discussing the possibility of selling the France international internally. On the one hand, a big fee for Kone would have financed some transfer business the other way, including signings of Jadon Sancho and Leon Bailey. The Gazzetta report that even Roma coach Gian Piero Gasperini would have been willing to make the sale. However, the Gazzetta dello Sport report, Roma owner Dan Friedkin pulled the plug. After seeing what the fan reaction was and considering the importance of Kone to the team, he decided that Kone is not for sale this summer.
