Well honestly, Napoli does not want to be a leader at this moment. They want to either get a really good amount of money for Victor Osimhen
 or they do not want to let him go at all. I actually agree that it is very dangerous. The thing why it is still not a problem is because Osimhen is still not have fallen out with Napoli and he is probably still OK to stay at Napoli. That is the reason why they are probably still not taking it seriously and not showing that much urgency about selling him which they should be showing.  Osimhen will probably make a better decision if he actually actually leaves Napoli. But I guess he is not realizing that at this moment.

Napoli is trying to do everything strategically and don’t want it to look like they don’t want him. On the other hand, they really wish he can be with them and continue with them. He’s really a valuable player and will still add more value to the team if he stays back. Lukaku they’re going after is not a long time project with Napoli because he’ll only stay there for a short time because of his age. Osimhen may not have been able to do more last season, but he still shows some determination that he’s going to do well in future. If he gets a move to another club it’ll be to his advantage because he’ll get more playing time and will be cherished more as a new player there. Leaving will also be at a big disadvantage to them because they’ll be pained if the new signing don’t as much as they expect from him.

Inter Milan recently bought Mehdi Taremi from Porto to have a better performance in the net season however they won the Serie A title but it seems Inter Milan aims for higher targets and they don't want to lose their good form. That's why Inter Milan is about to hire another forward for the next season. It seems they want to hire Depay.
Depay asked for five million euros to play for Inter Milan which is a huge amount of money for any payer.


Although Depay could not reach an agreement with Inter regarding money, there are currently many clubs that want to transfer Depay to their team. I know that Galatasaray has also accelerated this action in recent days. I agree that $5 million is a high figure.

Inter may take another step in the future and complete the transfer, but it seems negative for now, but they have not completely closed their communication. Inter knows that they need good players to be champions this season and they want this, and they will progress accordingly.

I have the same thought as you, this drama is almost the same as Mbappe's case but Osimhen has a different story because if there is another club that is able to spend a large amount of money, the player will definitely be released.
While in Mbappe's case, PSG is really defending its mainstay player.
Napoli's efforts will actually only make Osimhen even more uncomfortable and of course his performance will decline.
This is the same as Napoli's selfishness without thinking about the risks that will occur because Osimhen could give back to the club like Mbappe did to PSG.
It looks like Napoli is losing this game. This thing with Osimhen? Its a mess. Its like watching a bad reality show: very dramatic but not very interesting. They're waiting for PSG to give up so they can get a few extra dollars. Thats not a smart way to negotiate, people. Its dangerous, its not fair to the player, and its slowing down the whole team.
Ohsimhen is great. He needs to know the truth, and Napoli needs to move on. They need to finish the deal, get the money, and put it back into the team. No one is falling for it. Everyone knows that they need that money to build for the future. Dont forget that Osimhen could leave in 2025 without having to pay anything. They have a time bomb on their chest that is set to go off.

Napoli, enough with the games. Make a decision. Be decisive. Be leaders. Get this deal done, and move on. Its the only way to win.

It is clear that Inter Milan will set a higher target after they managed to become champions last season, the first is they have a target to defend the title and the other is they want to talk a lot in the Champions League. So they are trying to build a stronger foundation than last season. In my opinion, Inter Milan is now the team that is most ready for next season. Apart from the fact that they managed to perform well last season, the players they have are also quality players, plus some additional players that will make them even stronger. I will not be surprised when they manage to defend the title, and I will also not be surprised when they show something extraordinary in the Champions League next season.

For me, Inter is the biggest hope in Italian football. I don't see any team that is strong enough or at their level. The closest one at one point last season was Juve, but when they lost to them to try to get to first place, Juve lost their focus and almost lost everything. So I think that this time the Italian teams have to concentrate on getting better I like Inter's approach. Of course, they have Inzhagui as a coach, and that's enough for me, but they are still trying to Improve and I like that.

Inter Milan Eyeing Move For Serie A Defender In 2025 – Italy Or Netherlands Veterans To Make Way



Quote
Inter Milan are reportedly laying plans in advance for the summer of 2025, with Jaka Bijol on top of their wishlist.

The Nerazzurri are currently searching the market for a new left-footed defender. The club’s owners Oaktree Capital who prefer a young profile who can serve as an understudy for Alessandro Bastoni.

But aside from this addition, Simone Inzaghi’s defensive department should remain intact for the upcoming campaign.

However, next summer could witness a more significant change, explains Il Corriere dello Sport via FcInterNews.

The Roman newspaper notes that Francesco Acerbi and Stefan de Vrij are both running on expiring contracts.

Juve's A-team wasn't here. A lot of young bucks and benchwarmers ran out. Preseason is about tactic testing. Not the Champions League final. Motta is busy. These early games are vital to his team-building process. Every team has preseason ups and downs. It's not always easy

Other teams, like AC Milan stomping Manchester City... That's a wake-up call for Juve. They must improve to stay in the title chase. The key isn't simply buying big-name players, but assembling them on the pitch

I am sure we did not see Juventus at full strength in that match. This was a pre-season tour and it was just a friendly match. There was no motivation to win the match. Some teams only played their B team or even just young potential players from the academy. There are many big European teams who try various tactics in pre-season matches. But they have to prove that they are a contender for the title when the league starts. AC Milan beat other big teams. This shows that they are very ready to be the champion of Serie A this season.

Losing without reply from the German League team is indeed a little painful for Juventus, but we must also see that Juventus lost at the right time so that it can immediately use it as a lesson for further evaluation.

I think Juventus may likely end up like there previous season because right now nothing has been done on the club, I no that there last match with Fc Nuremberg was a pre season match but already Juventus has pass a message that they are still weak, so is very possible that most of the clubs will look down on them because they have failed to prove themselves, however looking at other clubs performance you will see that there upcoming season will be very good for them, perhaps we can see how consistent was AC Milan on there match against Manchester City, they actually surprised me because all my mind was that Manchester City will win but we can see how improved AC Milan has been, so is obvious they will be very competitive on this coming season.
Thiago Motta still needs time to adapt to his squad and vice versa, but such a crushing defeat should not have happened. Juventus have made several recruitments to add depth to the squad, in order to compete in the top four of the Serie A standings and go further in the Champions League.

I think the competition for the Scudetto next season will involve several teams such as Inter, Milan, Juventus, Atalanta, Bologna and even Roma

Well let's hope so because that losing against FC Nuremberg was actually very alarming for a club that wants to improve on this coming season, although I no that Thiago Motta is still getting use to the team and I'm not blaming him on that losing because the formation they use on that match was very okay and they were supposed to win the match but I blame most of the players that was very inconsistent on that match, however let's see if they would make amends on there next match against Brest and good for them they would be having a home advantage, so we expect them to correct there mistake by wining the match. However on the Scudetto next season you are right on the clubs you selected because those are the finest clubs on the league that has the best performance.

Next season, if Oshimen still stays at this club, I am sure Napoli will compete fiercely with Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan in the title race, but if Oshimen leaves, I'm not sure Napoli will play well without him.

Napoli is very different from the previous season. They went down a long way. Indeed, after the champion and Luciano Spalleti left, there were several players who left. But even they don't seem to be much.  Worse they couldn't stay in the top 5. For next season, it is still very difficult to predict. There will probably be a lot of new surprises. Of course Osimhen is a good player, but if they don't have other players to support it, of course it will be a problem.

Indeed, I am also more confident that if Osimhen stays at Napoli and with that, it is still very possible that Napoli will return to being a team that is in the title race next season. Because after all, with Napoli's head coach is Conte who certainly has great quality too, then if Conte can maximize the potential that Osimhen has, I'm sure the results for Napoli will be good. But unfortunately, Conte prefers to bring Lukaku but yes,at least so far it is also only about discourse because after all, the issue of Osimhen departure is still not a reality.

But indeed, even though Napoli made a high price tag for Osimhen but anyway,  the fact is that Osimhen remains the target of other elite teams. Thus, the chance for Osimhen to leave of  course can still happen but it seems,it will not happen quickly. Because anyway, the proof is that until now Osimhen is still at Napoli, which proves it is not very easy for Napoli to sell Osimhen.

Juventus defeat yesterday in a friendly match did not have any impact but it was the first match for their new head coach Motta to show the fans that he and his players are ready to wait for next season, Juventus have been slumping for quite a long time they hope Motta's arrival can provide a new wind for the Old Lady, so yesterday's match in my opinion was very important for Motta in strengthening himself and his players.

It is true that Motta still has a lot of time to develop his game at Juventus but he cannot relax in this job at Juventus is very different from Bologna the pressure experienced at Juventus is also great so if he cannot take advantage of this Friendly match well then there is no place for him in the eyes of Juventus fans, because yesterday's match was really embarrassing they conceded 3 goals without reply from the second German league team really can't be normalized an incident like this, a club that used to be quite respected but now they are quite fragile, in my opinion Motta has a serious job in this friendly match.
This Juventus loss hurts. A sign, not simply a friendly. This is a losing streak, not a single game. Some may comment, "They won some friendlies before and still had a bad season." But this feels different. This seems serious. If they dont repair it, they'll have a long, hard season.

Motta has a hard job. He must develop a team and regain fan faith. He's short on time. Ticking clock. He has a month or less. He must make major adjustments quickly. Juventus must take this loss seriously to return to the top. It should motivate them. It must fuel their recovery. If they do it, who knows? Maybe they'll surprise everyone. Perhaps they can win the UCL trophy. First, clean up this mess.

With the recent development at Napoli with the big boss Antonio Conte on the mix, the Napoli side was terrible during the better part of last season and they never showed any sign of improvement. Now we have Antonio Conte taking charge of everything that would make the team come back to their excellent form they had when they won the league title, can Antonio Conte make this season much difficult for the other competitors in the Italian league? Because to me I don't see Inter Milan making a joke out of Napoli next campaign and Juventus too have a new manager to turn things around for the club, can Antonio Conte bring the best of Napoli next season and make them unstoppable?
Antonio Conte is an experienced coach in coaching Serie A clubs, he has won the title several times when he was the coach of Juventus and Inter Milan, so there is no need to doubt Napoli's performance next season. I think this club will improve soon.
Unfortunately, Napoli did not employ this coach from the beginning of last season. Maybe Napoli will not experience bad luck like this and they will be fine, especially since they still have Victor Oshimen, the goal scoring machine for Napoli. Next season, if Oshimen still stays at this club, I am sure Napoli will compete fiercely with Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan in the title race, but if Oshimen leaves, I'm not sure Napoli will play well without him.
No one is doubting Conte professional coaching skills that he will not be able to improve Napoli's performance next season because they have good players and most of them are still in the club. The problem of Napoli poor performance last season was the fault of the coach, because how will a club that won the title two seasons ago couldn't prove that the were the defending champions.

Next season is a turn around for Napoli and I hope that they can keep Osimhen or get a good striker to replace him if he leaves. Lukaku will be a good replacement but how long will he keep to his consistency because he is not getting younger anymore.

This is normal, and why not?

I mean, who really cares about the result from this game? It's a pre-season game, and it means nothing. The Juventus team doesn't play their best players. This is Motta's first match with Juventus. The players have not yet adapted to his tactics. So, give them more time to deliver.
In addition, preseason matches like the one experienced by Juventus are also experienced by other teams at this time which generally will not have much influence on the results of the new season later. Moreover, Motta himself still has more time to change the Juventus team to be better and could even surprise many people when Juventus can win a lot next season. Because there are many people who do not care about this preseason match so this should be considered normal because the real competition has not started yet.
We can't conclude that quickly just by looking at the results of a team's pre-season matches, because there they only test how ready and how well they can carry out their strategy. Pre-season is a very difficult match to predict, even pre-season cannot be a reason for us to say something to a team, either when they can play well or when they play badly in the pre-season match. We can only find the answer when the competition is underway. In pre-season matches, winning is not the ultimate goal, they just want to try everything they have, including running many strategies and many players in just one match. We can also see from the way they play, we won't see them as stubborn as in a real match. When they lose, there is no regret because they know there is a bigger goal than just winning. It will be different when they are in the League, of course besides playing well they also have a target of winning.
Exactly, I get your points. Motta lost his first match should not be the reason to crucify him because it is not a real match but a friendly and most of these coaches don't care about winning it but to have fun with it, because they will want to see if a new strategy can be gotten from such matches. Most big teams don't take it personal and that is why they don't care about the outcome even though they lose the match.

As already said before, the defeat suffered by Juventus does not represent a danger. These things happen like the victory that took place against Real Madrid, but then the season turned out to be a disaster for Juventus, while Real won another Champions. Just give importance to these summer challenges, which do not count for anything. Check the market that Juventus did and judge that and above all you see the new coach who I think will do very well this year.
The absence of strong defenders in the defense sector makes Juventus' defense messy, but I still believe in Juventus' game next season with Thiago Motta's coaching, I think it's natural, in the trial match because the coach wants young players to have time to play with the main team, even though it doesn't give Juventus a win, at least Thiago Motta has the game results data he wants when the season starts Motta doesn't want to release Juventus' game in yesterday's trial but he still keeps it a secret like the big clubs out there, so yesterday's decision and defeat were not solely Motta's fault, but the Juventus academy players who were fielded were not the main team so it's natural to lose 3-0 in that match.

Osimhen has already made himself known to the Napoli side and they understand each other very well, talking about the relationship between him (Osimhen) and his teammates, it would be a great joy if he stays and he can as well work with Conte. The reason I believe Conte is going for Lukaku that's if Osimhen leaves is because he likes strong attackers and Lukaku would be good replacement but since nothing positive have emerge I don't think the big man is leaving.
Napoli will always try to make the other clubs struggle to get a win and if Conte uses that same formation he used when he was at Chelsea I believe the Napoli defense and attack would be stronger than that of last season because if you check they were very poor in their defense line and the attacking force was reduced that's why Osimhen struggle to get goals.

I also think that yesterday's defeat will make Mata try his best to fix it as soon as possible and of course this is not an easy thing for him especially this is his first time handling a big club and of course he has a little difficulty, but I think he will start the season well even though this friendly match will be very draining but he will be fine, it's just a matter of time for him in handling the Juventus squad and I believe in him he is the right coach for Juventus.

I will not put my hopes on the next friendly match because Motta has not been able to fully implement his thinking in the team but I am sure he will control it when the season starts, because basically this match is just an event to find their young talents and there is nothing to fight for so don't demand it as if this is the Champions League final.
Managing Juventus will be a herculean task for Thiago Motta. He needs to do more to bring out the best in the club. The Old Lady dominated the game and had more ball possession but could not score goals. Friendly games are not the true test of a club's strength but the score is embarrassing. Three goals against one of Italy's best clubs is not acceptable if Motta wants to continue as a coach. Hopefully, the next games against Brest and Atletico Madrid will be better. By then, more players would have returned to camp, and new players would have integrated with old players. The new coach should focus on the attack and work on the defense to avoid making costly mistakes.

Juventus lost in their friendly match to the Bundesliga 2 team, although the quality of the team that Juventus faced was far below them, FC Nuremberg performed very well in that match, but we also cannot deny that Juventus defeat cannot be used as a reference for next season suffered a fate like last season in Serie A, because if we look at Juventus game in that match, the majority was filled with young/reserve players and their game was not really united as a team, the defeat against FC Nuremberg should be an evaluation and also a lesson for Motta to see where the weaknesses are their team and try to improve it in the next match, to be honest, I personally really hope that Juventus can return to their best performance next season so that we will see fierce competition again between the big teams in the  serie A.

Inter have completed their third pre-season match today and they are still unbeaten so far. Previously they managed to beat Lugano and Portegelesse, this time the Spanish club who became their prey was unable to move in front of Inter with a 3-0 defeat. I think coach Simone Inzaghi's preparation is getting more mature for Serie A next season and at least this can prove that his strategy is still going well without any problems.

In this match, the striker they just signed for free from Porto, Mehdi Taremi, recorded a brace and this proves that he is ready to be a mainstay in the attack line with Lautaro Martinez later. Don't forget their mainstay left back, Di Marco, also scored the third goal and at the same time as the closing goal of the match. Can't wait to see Inter and betting on every match they will play will make it easier for us to make money like what happened last season. Wink

The pre-season match for Juventus did not go well enough. And the results were not very satisfying for Juventus fans. Even though it wasn't a serious match. And just a friendly match. But yes, everyone still evaluates the match to measure the strength of the competing teams.  But in this match, both teams were just testing every player they had. So that the main squad and the second tier are given rotating playing time in this match. Thiago Motta still has a lot of work at the Juventus club. He must be ready for the next season.

And actually there is only one month left to prepare the squad to make it better. that is, until the transfer window closes and the season starts. Juventus will also compete in the UCL and yes this will also be another pressure for Motta at his new club.

There is no guarantee that Juventus can perform better next season, but looking at their efforts in the transfer window, there is a possibility that their performance will be more consistent. A series of sanctions and player injuries last season made Juventus inconsistent, in the future they should be able to perform to meet expectations.

On the other hand, pre-season tour matches cannot be used as a full benchmark in assessing a team performance in the future, because we know this is part of the preparation before undergoing the official season. Meanwhile, I think the competition for the Scudetto next season will involve several teams such as Inter, Milan, Juventus, Atalanta, Bologna and even Roma. Milan actually also experienced a change of manager, just like Juventus, their performance is also questionable even though they are quite active in the transfer window. We'll see what will happen, whether Inter will be able to defend the Scudetto.

Juventus defeat yesterday in a friendly match did not have any impact but it was the first match for their new head coach Motta to show the fans that he and his players are ready to wait for next season, Juventus have been slumping for quite a long time they hope Motta's arrival can provide a new wind for the Old Lady, so yesterday's match in my opinion was very important for Motta in strengthening himself and his players.

It is true that Motta still has a lot of time to develop his game at Juventus but he cannot relax in this job at Juventus is very different from Bologna the pressure experienced at Juventus is also great so if he cannot take advantage of this Friendly match well then there is no place for him in the eyes of Juventus fans, because yesterday's match was really embarrassing they conceded 3 goals without reply from the second German league team really can't be normalized an incident like this, a club that used to be quite respected but now they are quite fragile, in my opinion Motta has a serious job in this friendly match.

As already said before, the defeat suffered by Juventus does not represent a danger. These things happen like the victory that took place against Real Madrid, but then the season turned out to be a disaster for Juventus, while Real won another Champions. Just give importance to these summer challenges, which do not count for anything. Check the market that Juventus did and judge that and above all you see the new coach who I think will do very well this year.
