Girona on verge of selling leftback Miguel Gutierrez to Napoli
Girona on verge of selling leftback Miguel Gutierrez to Napoli originally appeared on The Sporting News With Girona's La Liga season kicking off just over 10 days away, the Spanish club may still be sorting out its opening day lineup as Miguel Gutierrez is drawing significant interest from Italian side Napoli. In fact, the two parties are in advanced discussions, and a resolution may come as early as this week before each club begins its respective league duties. According to insider Fabricio Romano, Napoli is interested in adding the Girona stalwart to its backline– to the tune of 18 million Euros. Now, that fee appears rather nominal as Gutierrez has operated as a mainstay at leftback for Girona over the past three seasons, amassing 91 starts during that timeframe. At 24-years old, Gutierrez registered one goal and five assists last season across his nearly 2,500 minutes played. One season prior, Gutierrez offered nine goal contributions (two goals and seven assists) as he cemented himself as a productive, pace-laden defender for Girona. Before joining Girona, Gutierrez was a member of Real Madrid for three seasons, though he sparingly saw the field during that time.

Now, selling Gutierrez would certainly generate additional funds for Girona to bolster its squad in other areas, but it would be a risky move for a team that already conceded 61 goals a year ago, good for third-most in all of La Liga. Girona will open its La Liga campaign against Rayo Vellanco on Friday, Aug. 15.

Rakitic issues apology after Modric post insults Juventus fans
Ivan Rakitic has been forced to issue an apology to Juventus fans after he accidentally used an insulting chant against them when celebrating Luka Modric's move to Milan. Croatia international Rakitic retired in July after a career spent with FC Basel, Schalke 04, Sevilla, Barcelona, Al-Shabab and Hajduk Split. He is good friends with fellow Croatian Modric and posted on Instagram to celebrate this new experience of joining Milan as a free agent. Modric congratulations included Juventus insult Luka Modric during his first interview as a Milan player on Wednesday, July 16, 2025. However, what the former midfielder didn't realise was that the song he picked to accompany this image of them together was not just in support of Milan, but actively insulting towards Juventus. When it was pointed out to him, Rakitic removed the offending clip and posted an apology on his Instagram Stories. 'I wish to extend my sincere apologies to the supporters of Juventus. My intention was solely to use a song associated with AC Milan to congratulate my friend Luka Modric, without being aware of the historical context or the lyrics tied to it. 'I had absolutely no desire to offend anyone, least of all a club for which I hold the utmost respect.' The song was a chant heard regularly in the stadium, 'Chi non salta e un gobbo Juventino,' translated as 'whoever doesn't jump is a Juventus supporter.' Gobbo means hunchback and is an insulting term used to describe Juve fans. View this post on Instagram

Espanyol eyeing deal for free agent defender
The brass at La Liga outfit Espanyol are eyeing a summer reunion with a player to have previously enjoyed a productive loan spell with the club. That's according to multiple sources across the Spanish media, who point towards Lucas Defender Vázquez is for his part fresh off bringing a close to his career-long Real Madrid stint this summer. As much comes after those in a position of power in Spain's capital made the call not to offer the 34-year-old an extension to his expiring terms. Upon Real's endeavours at the Club World Cup coming to a close last month, Vázquez, in turn, became available as a free agent. As alluded to above, though, if the latest word stemming from the media on Monday is anything to go by, then this may not stay the case for long. As per club insiders 'El 1900', amongst others, Espanyol are considering a move for the versatile full-back over the weeks ahead. Any such move would make for a reunion between the two parties, after Vázquez spent the 2014/15 campaign plying his trade on loan at the RCDE Stadium. Conor Laird – GSFN
