In the match between AC Milan vs Madrid, Milan really needed a striker figure who could create a goal. In that match, it could be said that Milan had difficulty making a shot on goal. So far I feel optimistic about Maignan. Although Milan losing Donnarumma, if Maignan still continue to perform well like several pre-season match, then Milan may still be one of the teams that have the potential to be capolista this season.
As for me, Milan played a very weak match against Real Madrid. It is possible to mark only the good play of the team in defense, but that's all. Giroud looks very bad as a striker so far, maybe he needs time to adapt to the team and something will change, but at the moment his play is unsatisfactory, as well as results of the entire line of attack.

I read that Edin Dzeko could be Lukaku's replacement. Inter reached an agreement with the player (two-year, six million euro per season) and aim to close the deal by Wednesday, in order to give Inzaghi a striker for the season.
Nerazzurri are only waiting for Roma's okay while the romans also search for a replacement.

Napoli is my favorite team in this season. With Victor Osimhen who's already doing some fantastic work finding the back of the net. I'm hoping that Luciano Spalletti will keep Osimhen in the starting eleven permanently. Napoli is extremely unpredictable and their style of play which is very offensive and diverse can't be compared to any of the other Italian clubs. They are serious contenders for the league title and should neither be overlook or taken for granted.

Sky Sport Italia claims that Inter are starting to make new plans considering the possibility that Romelu Lukaku could leave the team for Chelsea soon. They are targeting Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham (23), Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata (30) or Roma striker Edin Dzeko (35).
But I don't think that their targets are like this in such situation. Because just imagine that you have Lukaku at your team and you decide to sell him for more than €100m. Would you go for much worse strikers? Honestly, I wouldn't. Because it will definitely cause your team to weaken. And a team like Inter shouldn't even consider this.
Inter and the Chinese owners are facing a big financial crisis worsened by covid so even if they didn't admit it, they have to bring money to the club in any way so having such a good opportunity to sell Lukaku for that price shouldn't be missed. They are aware of the consequences and they will take the risk since there is no other choice. Coinlocket which is better involved in Italian clubs, already said that Inter failed to give Hakimi his salary for example...

Why is this Inter Milan not considering it? other clubs are eyeing great players to sign him while Inter just want to release and replace him with less good players maybe this will overwhelm Inter Milan's squad if this is true in this situation.Imagine €100 million just wanting to cover his financial shortfall maybe?
There is no other way maybe Inter Milan have to give it up to be sold to Mancity or another club that bids higher, but indeed this is very dear to Inter Milan.
Yes, it's normal, sometimes the club has to make a decision even if it's not the right decision. In the near future Inter will be looking for new players, from what I hear Edin Dzeko will be their target as a replacement for Lukkaku. Edin Dzeko is not a bad player maybe he can contribute to Inter this season.
Exactly, it is not that easy for Italian clubs to resist offers like that. The PL has the money and as far as I know Italian clubs are far from having that much cash available. Lukaku is definitely a key player and has probably been the most important one for Inter, there isn't much you can do. Reminds me of Dortmund where everybody says they should stay strong against offers from big clubs because they sell their best players every year, but how are you going to do that if your bankroll is just smaller than that of others?

Have been success and Inter Milan got liquidation with financial crisis not only Lukaku for selling but many player have waiting list to sell and back better with Inter Milan financial. I know when Conte out this mean Inter Milan faced bigger problem with financial, how come Conte success give scudetto but left Inter Milan after giving many contribution for club, not any chance for Inter Milan keep scudetto again next season.
The reason was that they ended up winning on a financially horrible season for clubs, they basically won it during pandemic when no fans were on stands and that not only drops the ticket sales but also merch sales at the same time as well. Plus Italy was one of the hardest hit nations in the world, on very early days they peaked over 10k infected a day and they had so many bad situations that hospital beds were not enough for the sick people.So, during something like that having a championship is not profitable as much as few years ago. This is why they made a big loss even though they won something, profiting doesn't equal to winning games, just because you win doesn't mean you will earn as well.

Lukaku sold yesterday to Chelsea for 115 million, Tottenham close to get Lautaro Martinez, Calhanoglu out from the Parma friendly due to a muscle strain. The difficult moment for Inter continues.
What players are left for Inter Milan to begin the new season? Tottenham tend to prepare for the transfer of Harry Kane by buying Lautaro. If the transfer is completed, it would result in a domino effect. Tottenham will let Kane goes to Manchester City. Messi will go to PSG, and Dzeko might be transfered to Inter Milan.Quote
The managers are working to get Dzeko from Roma and between today and tomorrow the negotiation should have the decisive acceleration due to the two-year contract with the Bosnian (5.5 million net).
Dzeko might be a good replacement for Lukaku but this wil not stop the tough protests of Inter supporters.
Dzeko is like the best for Inter Milan with their limited transfer fund but he is old and is not a future for Inter Milan. Inter Milan get big money from Lukaku transfer and might get more with Lautaro transfer but they have to use those money to resolve their financial troubles and can not use much on the transfer market. Dzeko might be a good replacement for Lukaku but this wil not stop the tough protests of Inter supporters.

I heard that Lukaku transfer is getting closer to Chelsea some sources say this deal reaches 115 million EUR. I agree with you that Chelsea should be hunting Haaland
But Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich wants Lukaku I don't know what's behind it maybe there is something special there
Bos wants to be sure, Mr. Roman knows Internazionale has a financial problem. The club will let Lukaku go if have a big amount comes into the owner's pockets. this is not an impossible mission, Inter wants to freshen his formation also (sell the potential player and buy another player with a low budget), this situation has been predicted by Conte before and will be a disaster for Inzaghi.But Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich wants Lukaku I don't know what's behind it maybe there is something special there

It seems that what Conte has predicted so far has come true if Inter Milan will sell a lot of their star players this season, the financial problems that plague Inter Milan right now certainly make many people predict if Inter Milan which is under the control of the Suning group has ended and even now Inter Milan are in a pretty bad situation even though last season they won the Scudetto Serie A 2020/21 season.
Inter Milan current ownership has continued to change in recent year.
We already talked about the bad situation of Inter during the last season and fortunately they won the scudetto after all. Now, Conte should be lucky to leave the boat before seeing Eriksen situation then Hakimi and Lukaku signing elsewhere or almost. Right now I don't see Inter competitive, they will be somewhere between 6-10 spots imo unless making good signing and we all know how hard it will be.. Inter Milan current ownership has continued to change in recent year.
I read that Tuchel now wants to join the poker game among the clubs who are trying to sign Messi. If Chelsea really has a chance to sign Messi (which I don't believe), signing Lukaku won't either not be possible anymore anyway or they would just discard the plan as they prefer Messi. According to what Tuchel is looking for though, Lukaku would be the better fit. He wants a robust offender like Lukaku he first said, now affirmed that Messi would be interesting too.
Inter had a great run last year,...
Yeah, they absolutely did, and tbh, I was hoping they were going to continue this season in the same way they finished last season and keep pushing Juventus to their limit, but I think neither of my hopes is coming into fruition, the club are losing every single pillar that made them champions last season, first from the manager Antonio Conte, to their key striker Lukaku and a host of others that are prolly on their way out as well.I feel really disappointed, especially for Inter fans, I'm pretty sure many of them were expecting their team to replicate what they had last season, but from what I hear they are in a financial mess, one they can't solve without selling their key players, I think Juve will be the ones enjoying what's happening at Inter right now, as they can capitalize on this and reclaim their trophy. It took Inter quite a long time to build this team that just recently became champions again, I don't know how long it'll take them now to assemble another team worthy of being champions.
Two Inter strikers are likely to move to the Premier League, Lukaku will be bought by Chelsea and Lautaro Martinez will be bought by Arsenal.
If the two Inter strikers leave Inter, this is not a good thing for Inter, because it will affect Inter's performance in the 2021/2022 season. Even though Inter have lost Hakimi who was bought by PSG and Eriksen who has not been allowed to play, even Stefan de Vrij has the possibility of moving too. Inter is likely to lose a lot of its players, this is because Inter are experiencing a severe financial crisis, Inter have to sell some of their players. Hopefully one of Inter's strikers will stay, so Inter just look for a replacement for one striker. According to rumors Inter are trying to sign Duvan Zapata if Lukaku go to Chelsea.
Inter had a great run last year, but pandemic season was the worst season to do that, it was very unfortunate but they have lost all the money they could have made in any other situation. I personally do feel like they are going to suck big time next season, they are not going to win anything at all, not the league, not anything in europe, not even the national cup.If the two Inter strikers leave Inter, this is not a good thing for Inter, because it will affect Inter's performance in the 2021/2022 season.

This is not even just about Lukaku staying or leaving, I am sure he will leave but they will not be able to do anything even if he stays. They just had a horrible off-season and even the morale because of that is good enough reason for players to be different. Think about it, even Liverpool who had a morale drop ended up being so bad for a while, same team that nearly had an unbeaten championship, ended up being third at least but had a horrible stretch. Inter needs to find a way to be happy again, if not then they are going to suck.
Nice friendly today between Atalanta and West Ham at the Betway Cup.
Atalanta lost 2-0 in London against West Ham United. Ending score was maybe too severe after a match substantially balanced, with a supremacy of the English in the first half, and a 2nd half where Atalanta has grown.
In the meantime, Atalanta continues to take care of the outgoing transfers. Waiting to define the loans of Lammers to Genoa and Sutalo to Verona, deals now decided, today arrived the official announcement of the one-year loan of Ebrima Colley to Spezia, 21-years-old striker, back from an unconvincing season at Verona, with only one goal. In the next hours, also the Ukrainian midfielder Viktor Kovalenko could follow him in Liguria.

If Lukaku comes back to Chelsea, maybe I'm one of those people who worry about his performances. Because for me, it would be better for Lukaku to stay at Inter but yes, if selling Lukaku gives financial benefits to the club maybe it will be fine. I'm just not sure, even though Lukaku will be managed by Tuchel at Chelsea I think it's a big question mark whether Lukaku will quickly fit into the style of play that Tuchel will apply later. I will still be curious about the continuation of this transfer and yes, stay or leave there will certainly be those who benefit and hopefully there will be no mistakes if this is a high transfer value.
I think Chelsea want Lukaku not without reason, they are very confident that Lukaku can improve the team's performance. I firmly believe that if Lukaku was at Chelsea, it would boost Chelsea's attack line in various games.
Lukaku would be a great addition to the Chelsea team. But Inter really need Lukaku in their team so if Chelsea wants too sign Lukaku they will need to pay an incredible fee plus the salary for Lukaku. Its better if they go for Halland honestly he is really young and they can force him for the next couple of years
