Today’s most recent transfer updates from Serie A feature Joshua Zirkzee’s decision to prioritize a move to Milan and the speculation linking Mauro Icardi with a potential transfer to Juventus.
According to Tuttosport, Buongiorno is anticipated to be included in the Italy squad for the upcoming Euro 2024 tournament this summer. The young talent from Torino is currently awaiting offers from Milan as well as several other interested clubs from the Premier League. Despite an initial asking price of €40 million, this figure may escalate following the conclusion of the European Championship.
Reports from Gazzetta dello Sport indicate that Juventus is keen on extending Carlos Alcaraz’s tenure beyond the current season. However, the club is unwilling to exercise his hefty buy option of €49.5 million. Instead, Juventus is devising a strategy to negotiate a new loan deal with Southampton during the summer transfer window, with potential alterations to the terms of the agreement.
