After his team's first loss of the 2026-27 season last month, Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti received a fair bit of heat for how the Bianconeri totally lost its balance against Sassuolo. After their second loss of the season, Sunday's 3-0 defeat at the hand of surprise package Lazio at the Allianz Stadium in Turin, the heat has seemingly been turned up to a degree in which Spalletti hasn't seen since the final weeks of the 2025-26 campaign when Champions League qualification was slipping away.
And it sounds like, in some ways, Spalletti could see a little bit of the writing on the wall.
Amongst the many critiques that Spalletti — who was suspended for Sunday's loss as a result of his red card last weekend against Cagliari — had of his team's performance during his post-game media responsibilities, It was an answer to his current relationship with the team that raised plenty of eyebrows. Spalletti responded to the question "Until yesterday, I thought I could say yes, then today I probably don't know …" — something that will surely fuel speculation about just how much longer he might have on the Juventus sideline if his team continues to play the way they did against Lazio on Sunday night.
The quote, via multiple outlets, in English is as follows:
"If instead of improving we get worse, I have to do in-depth ****** ysis, especially on myself. Does the team still follow me? Until yesterday, I thought I could say yes, then today I probably don't know. I have a good relationship with them, I always want to share, that's how I am."

Inter completed an extraordinary comeback from 2-0 down to beat Napoli 3-2 with a Lautaro Martinez double and Marcus Thuram, sealing a true thriller at San Siro.
The top two in each of the last two seasons faced off, though the Nerazzurri had started stronger with victories over Monza and Cagliari. Marcus Thuram was still not fully fit and Djed Spence working his way back from injury, with John Stones and Hakan Calhanoglu rested ahead of the Champions League trip to Real Madrid.
Max Allegri had a rough week, losing at home to Como, then Scott McTominay and Giovane both required surgery, with Alessandro Buongiorno and Luca Marianucci already long-term absentees. Antonio Vergara was preferred to Kevin De Bruyne due to match fitness.
Napoli were unbeaten against Inter since the Supercoppa Italiana Final in January 2024, managing one win and four draws going into this test.
See how it all unfolded on the Liveblog.

Reigning Serie A champions Inter will look to continue their perfect start to the 2026-27 season when they visit Cagliari, who also got their league campaign off to a winning start last weekend.
Cristian Chivu's side set the pace for the rest of the division to match when they trumped newly-promoted Monza 4-1 in San Siro last Saturday, and will be hoping to make it back-to-back victories when they visit the Unipol Domus on Sunday evening. Kick-off is due at 19.45 BST.

Cagliari also picked up three points during the opening weekend of the 2026-27 season thanks to an Alessandro Romano strike in a 1-0 victory away against Parma.
According to pre-match reports from Sky Sport Italia, both sides could stick with unchanged starting line-ups following their winning starts last weekend.

Ever since the great Claude Rains first uttered the immortal line "Round up the usual suspects!" in Casablanca, the phrase has been ingrained in the popular lexicon — so much so that it inspired the ****** le of an entirely different movie nearly 50 years later. You hear it everywhere, in any context where you can expect to see a predictable set of participants.
On Saturday, a struggling Juventus were buoyed by a pair of very unusual suspects — guys most fans figured would be gone, or at least on their way out the door, by this point in the transfer window. Unable to penetrate a deep-lying Parma defense, it was Nico González who gave a moribund attack an instant shot in the arm, forcing a magical save before scoring a deflected goal off his own rebound to open the scoring. Then, with two minutes left, the game was sealed by another unlikely goalscorer: Teun Koopmeiners, who had just come on after an injury to Andrea Cambiaso and finished off a quick attack with a beautiful finish.
The unlikely redemption arcs from players most ****** umed were out of the team's plans, or at least on the very fringes, were welcome developments for a team that learned this week that their talisman, Kenan Yildiz, would miss two to three months once he undergoes surgery on a broken metatarsal. After a first half that seemed to be crying out for his creativity, it was the transfer-listed González who gave the Bianconeri the necessary spark to take Parma down 2-0 as they began to look forward to next week's big match against AC Milan.
Apart from Yildiz, Luciano Spalletti was also missing Weston McKennie (muscle fatigue), Edon Zhegrova, and Khéphren Thuram, who suffered a setback in his knee recovery and could now require surgery. Jeff Ekhator came back to make his first Juve squad in a competitive game. Spalletti's 4-2-3-1 was therefore shuffled a bit. Guglielmo Vicario started in goal after getting over the cramp that forced him off late against Frosinone. Pierre Kalulu and Zeki Çelik played on the defensive flanks, while Bremer was partnered with new signing Jhon Lucumí in the middle of defense. Manuel Locatelli and Douglas Luiz played in the midfield, while Francisco Conceição, Jonathan David, and Jérémie Boga supported Randal Kolo Muani in attack.
Carlos Cuesta lost his first Parma match last week against Cagliari, and were looking for something better here. His only missing player was former Juve prospect Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, who had to have a surgery of his own this week. Edoardo Corvi started behind a 4-4-2. Enrico Delprato, Mariano Troilo, Dominik Drobnic, and Emanuele Valeri arrayed themselves in front of him. Sascha Britschgi and Mandela Keita bookended Christian Ordóñez and Adrían Bernabé in midfield. El Bilal Touré and Simone Lontani started up front. Drobnic and Lontani were both teenagers, and the former was making his debut.

Sebastiano Esposito has officially joined Sassuolo on loan with option to buy for a total €12m plus add-ons, while Cagliari receive Riccardo Ciervo as part of the deal.
The centre-forward had not played at all for the Sardinians this summer, as he was involved in a bitter contract dispute following the activation of the obligation to buy from Inter at €4m.
He abandoned the pre-season training camp, although insisted that it was in accordance with the club directors, then presented a series of medical certificates to cover his on-going absence.

Luka Modric has opened up on his decision to sign a new contract with Milan, insisting he never seriously considered walking away despite the pain of last season's collapse.
Speaking to Milan TV, via MilanNews, the Croatian addressed the injury suffered against Juventus that clouded the closing months of the campaign: "I never thought it would be my last game with Milan. Deep down, I knew I wanted to continue, but at the same time, I had to check other things that would allow me to do so. Now I'm here and I'm very happy to be back."

Milan's home defeat to Cagliari ended their ****** le challenge on a painful note, and Modric admitted it took a World Cup campaign with Croatia to fully process it.
However, it was the club's show of faith over the summer, as they built around Ruben Amorim and added significant fire-power, including deals worth around €150m once Diego Moreira's move from Strasbourg is finalised, that convinced him to extend: "Milan showed how much they cared about me and the fact that I was part of this new project: it was what I needed, what I wanted to hear. I talked to my family about it and decided to stay."

Italy international Marco Palestra stunned Chelsea fans in the 3-0 win over Milan, playing as a left-back, a wing-back, and seemingly everywhere else too. 'Are we sure he's a defender?'
The 21-year-old has for much of his career been a right-sided wing-back, coming up through the Atalanta youth academy as a midfielder where the 3-4-3 approach was paramount.
During last season's loan at Cagliari, he played anywhere from right-back to right wing-back, to a more advanced role as part of a trident attack.

Today in Jakarta, Palestra was surprisingly fielded as a left-back in the starting XI of a 3-0 friendly victory over Milan, although it mutated to more of a 3-4-2-1 formation, giving the Italian freedom to attack.

The dispute between Sebastiano Esposito and Cagliari has escalated sharply, with the striker's agent threatening legal action after the club's director general appeared to accuse his side of attempted "extortion."
According to calciomercato.com, Cagliari DG Stefano Melis described the situation as "almost an attempt at extortion", a characterisation that drew a furious response from Esposito's agent, Mario Giuffredi, speaking to TuttoCagliari.net.
Giuffredi said he did not know Melis, who he insisted had never been present at the negotiations, and rejected the accusation outright. "He should be ashamed of having used the word 'extortion'," the agent said. "In our world, there is no room for that word."

Cagliari are reportedly searching the market for a new right wing-back, as Lazio's Romano Floriani Mussolini emerges as a potential solution.
The 23-year-old is a Lazio youth product who rose to prominence following his Serie B exploits at Juve Stabia in 2024/25. Last season, the Roma native had his first Serie A experience at Cremonese, but he couldn't lock down a starting role. Following their relegation, the Lombardians opted against exercising their option to buy the player, who rejoined the Biancocelesti's ranks.
This may have been a blessing in disguise for Floriani Mussolini, who is now enjoying an impressive pre-season as part of Gennaro Gattuso's camp and is expected to play his football in Italy's top flight once more.
According to Sky Sport Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Cagliari have added Floriani Mussolini to their wing-back shortlist. Last season, the Isolani had Marco Palestra patrolling their right flank. The youngster cemented himself as one of the best players in Serie A and has since returned to Atalanta, who subsequently sold him to Chelsea for €55 million
Therefore, the Rossoblu need a new right-back/right wing-back, and Floriani Mussolini has been targeted, although he's not the only man on their shortlist. Di Marzio also reveals that the club is close to acquiring Atalanta's Daniel Maldini, who spent the second half of the previous campaign on loan at Lazio.

Rúben Amorim has sent a pointed message to Rafael Leão on the eve of his first Milan derby, insisting the forward should feel fortunate to represent the club amid ongoing questions over his future.
With quotes via Tuttomercatoweb, the Milan coach was speaking before Wednesday's pre-season meeting with Inter in Perth.
Asked about Leão, whose exit had looked likely before offers so far failed to materialise, Amorim struck a firm but warm note.
"Rafa is lucky to be at a club like Milan, so he should be happy. I feel that he's happy and motivated," he said. "I don't know what will happen between now and the end of the window, but I feel the group is really united. I haven't heard or seen any difference in Leão compared to the other lads."

Juventus talent Vasilije Adzic will join Sassuolo on loan with option to buy, plus a counter-option for the Bianconeri, so Cagliari instead look to Daniel Maldini of Atalanta.

Sky Sport Italia are confident that the deal is done for Sassuolo to take Adzic on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season.
However, the Bianconeri are determined to keep control of his career, so have retained a crucial buy-back option in the contracts.

With the Foxes playing in League One this season, the club have had to see the departure of some of their big-name players with Winks the latest to go after three years at the club.
The 30-year-old has now made a permanent move to Serie A side Cagliari, which will be his second spell in Italy after having previously been on loan at Sampdoria while at Tottenham Hotspur.
"We wish Harry well in the next part of his career," Leicester said in a statement for the player who made 109 appearances for the club, scoring five goals and making six **** ists.
Last season, Cagliari finished 14th in the Italian top flight, ahead of the likes of Fiorentina and Genoa.

Nicolò Tresoldi has been on the radar for several years now, rising through the youth ranks at Hannover 96, before a transfer to Club Brugge last season. After a monstrous season with the Belgian side, the German youth player is now on the list of several top clubs including Bundesliga sides, but now could be lured by another European league.
The Cagliari-born striker might not be able to resist the lure of the Italian capital, as the player has reportedly reached an agreement in principle with AS Roma for a contract which would last until 2031, as per Nicolò Schira. Reports indicate that he prefers a move to Roma over the bids received by Bundesliga sides.
Reports further indicate that Roma are now in talks to reach a deal with Club Brugge, asking 25 million euros. That price is seemingly a bargain for a 21-year-old striker who seems poised to breakout in a major way. Perhaps Tresoldi won’t continue his development but his performance last season was almost enough to earn a callup from Julian Nagelsmann for this summer’s World Cup.
Could a move to Italy cost Germany a young talented striker? With Nick Woltemade failing to reach expectations over the last year, could Tresoldi be the next German striker? Hopefully, Jürgen Klopp takes a strong look at Tresoldi as the time to earn his allegiance might be dwindling.
Oddly, there could be hope for Tresoldi to move back to Germany…and play for Borussia Dortmund. Transfer journalist Ekrem Konur has that story:

Marco Palestra's agent hit back angrily at Inter President Beppe Marotta and reveals when Chelsea got involved. 'Over 45 days, Inter never reached an agreement with Atalanta.'
The Italy international had been on the verge of joining Inter last month in a deal believed to be worth €40m plus €5m add-ons.
However, before they could shake hands, Chelsea dived in with a proposal worth a good €10m more to Atalanta, and with double the salary on offer at San Siro.

Thomas Berenbruch looks set to leave Inter this summer, with a move to Serie A off the table.
According to transfer reporter Giorgio Musso, of CalcioMercato.it, the young midfielder is on the verge of joining Dutch side Utrecht, ruling out a switch to Cagliari or a stay in the Italian top flight.
The 2005-born midfielder had been linked with a move within Serie A, but it is Utrecht who appear poised to land him.
The Eredivisie club are no strangers to his situation, having also pursued the youngster last summer before missing out, and are now closing in on their target at the second attempt.

Yerry Mina could be on the move this summer, with Fenerbahce showing an interest in the Cagliari defender.
According to Turkish outlet Habergo, via TuttoMercatoWeb, the Super Lig side have stepped up contacts with the Sardinians in recent hours as they look to secure the experienced centre-back.
Mina has been a mainstay for Cagliari of late, one of the key figures around whom the club built their survival in each of the last two Serie A campaigns.
Any suggestion of his departure is therefore likely to unsettle the Rossoblù faithful, given the influence the Colombia international has had at the heart of the defence.
