As reported by La Nazione, the Viola have set their sights on the class of 2001, but negotiations for the English midfielder are slowing down due to a clause inserted in the transfer of the player from Chelsea to Empoli.
In fact, the Tuscan club did not pay anything for him, but inserted a 50% resale clause. In addition, the player's decision regarding his transfer is still missing.

Tottenham set to sign Japan international defender Kota Takai
Tottenham Hotspur are set to sign defender Kota Takai from Kawasaki Frontale. Club sources indicate that an agreement for the 20-year-old Japan international has been reached for £5million ($6.8m, 1billion Japanese yen), which would represent a record fee for a player in the J League — the top division of Japanese football — moving overseas. Advertisement Takai, who is into the final six months of his contract at Kawasaki Frontale, has played 28 times at club level in 2025 and has also made four appearances for Japan. Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven established themselves as the first choice central defensive pairing at Spurs under previous head coach Ange Postecoglou, while Radu Dragusin and Kevin Danso are the other recognised centre-backs in the squad. However, multiple injury setbacks in 2024- 25 meant Archie Gray, a midfielder by trade, was deployed in the centre of defence. Danso and Mathys Tel, who both arrived on loan deals from Lens and Bayern Munich respectively in January, have each made their moves to Spurs permanent this summer, while teenage defender Luka Vuskovic will join Spurs from Hajduk Split after a deal was agreed in 2023.

Leeds sign Slovenia defender Bijol from Udinese
Leeds have bolstered their defence ahead of a return to the Premier League with the signing of Slovenian international centre-back Jaka Bijol from Udinese. The 26-year-old, who reportedly cost £15 million ($20 million), becomes Leeds' second signing of the close season after the arrival of German striker Lukas Nmecha on a free transfer. Advertisement Bijol arrives at Leeds with a wealth of experience for club and country. He has made 63 appearances for Slovenia and played a key role at Euro 2024, where they held England to a goalless draw in the group stage before losing on penalties to Portugal in the last 16. "Maybe the biggest (day) of my career so far, but I'm ready for it," Bijol told the club's website. "It's a big challenge for everyone. It's a big challenge for me, for the club, and we're getting ready for it together. "I think the club and myself are ready for the Premier League." Bijol has spent the last three seasons in Serie A with Udinese, making 95 appearances, having moved to Italy after a four-year spell at CSKA Moscow where he featured in both the Champions League and Europa League. Leeds sealed Premier League promotion in May after a two-year absence, winning the Championship title on goal difference after finishing level on 100 points with Burnley. kca/nf

Sampdoria secured Serie B survival after their game against Salernitana was suspended at minute 65 on Sunday night. Sampdoria avoid Serie C relegation The Blucerchiati were leading 2-0 in the second leg of the relegation playout, sparking anger from the Granata ultras, who threw firecrackers, smoke bombs, and seats onto the pitch, forcing police to intervene. Advertisement Samp had been relegated in the regular season, but Brescia's financial irregularities led to a point deduction for the Lombardy-based side, who were relegated to Serie C instead of Sampdoria. The Blucerchiati had won the first-leg playout 2-0 last week, and the second-leg tie against Salernitana was postponed from Friday to Monday due to a massive food poisoning outbreak in the Granata team.

This means Samp will secure a 3-0 win by default, thereby ensuring their stay in Serie B.
