These are some of the topics being discussed this morning. Let’s look at the most interesting ones.

Juventus had set their sights on Samuele Inacio , the 2008-born Borussia Dortmund talent, even going as far as asking the German club for information. Fabrizio Romano revealed it. The young striker, who came through at Atalanta , made the step up to the first team in the second half of last season and even scored his first Bundesliga goal against Eintracht Frankfurt.

Dortmund, however, decided to place a major bet on their gem, tying him down until June 30, 2029 . The renewal came in May and effectively shut the door on any immediate departure: Inacio is considered by the German club to be one of the most promising youngsters in their project. Juventus, in search of young attacking profiles, therefore pursued a trail that did not lead to Turin, eventually choosing to focus on Ekhator .

Milan are starting again with Rabiot. His performances and central role in the project have convinced the club to think about extending his current deal, which expires in 2028 : the goal would be to reach at least 2030 , with Gerry Cardinale ready to personally handle the negotiations.

Having arrived from Marseille in 2025 , Rabiot quickly earned a leading role in the Rossoneri side and is now considered one of the team’s leaders. The player himself has also reiterated that he is happy in Milan and has not considered leaving. Milan therefore want to turn this understanding into a new long-term contract, rewarding a player whom Amorim considers valuable in multiple positions and who, at 31, could spend the most important part of his career in the Rossoneri shirt.

The future of Hakan Calhanoglu is still unwritten. The Turkish midfielder still has several years of football ahead of him, but his current contract with Inter expires on June 30, 2027 and, for now, renewal talks have not yet really begun. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport , what could weigh most heavily on the club’s assessment is the injury issue: physical setbacks have affected the playmaker’s last few seasons quite frequently, including the current adductor problem in his right thigh that forced him to miss the matches against Udinese and Roma.
