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.

Juventus hosts Parma in their first home league game of the season this evening, and it is one of the fixtures to follow today.
The Old Lady is one of the top teams in the country, and after a strong summer spending spree, they have been tipped to outperform their previous campaign.
The men at the Allianz Stadium know Parma will not be easy opponents, and if they do not improve on their performance against Frosinone, it could be bad news for them.
They have already lost Kenan Yildiz, while Weston McKennie is also unavailable for the fixture, meaning the men at the Allianz Stadium will make some changes to the team for this match.
With Yildiz unavailable, Kerim Alajbegovic could be handed a start on the left wing, a position he played many times at RB Salzburg, even though Luciano Spalletti sees him as a number 10.

Juventus beat Frosinone 1-0 in their first league game of the season, but the performance was not good enough. Against a smaller team like Frosinone, the Bianconeri simply have to play better, especially considering the quality within their squad and the expectations surrounding them this term.
The men at the Allianz Stadium have proven to be one of the strongest teams in the country, and much is expected of them this season. However, their performance in that match suggested they should not be expected to improve significantly on what they achieved last term.
Juventus have top players all over the pitch and a very good manager, making their inability to consistently meet expectations disappointing for their supporters. The team continues to let its fans down, which is something Luciano Spalletti is not happy about as they look to improve their performances.
One of their most important players now is Francisco Conceicao, who did his best during the match. Although Juventus eventually secured the victory, the attacker acknowledged that the team still needs to perform better and become more effective as a unit.
Juventus had enough control to create opportunities, but they were unable to turn their superiority into a more comfortable result. Their failure to score more goals allowed Frosinone to remain within touching distance, particularly as the match entered its closing stages.

Gleison Bremer has given an honest ******* sment of the Juventus team after his goal helped the side beat Frosinone in their Serie A opener.
Juve were expected to dominate the fixture, and they did so in the first half, but they failed to take all their chances, something that could have proved costly. The team have several new players who need time to settle quickly, but they also have to collect results while that process is taking place because there is little time to waste.
If Juventus lose ground on the teams that start the season in strong form, it could take a long time to catch them. The Old Lady wants to be serious about winning trophies this term, making a strong start particularly important.
Bremer is one of the players whose commitment to the team cannot be doubted, and the defender has now reacted to their 1-0 win at Frosinone. He scored the game's only goal and believes the team still have to improve in many areas.
The Brazilian was pleased to contribute to the victory, but his comments also highlighted the work Juventus still need to do. Bremer recognises that the season has only just begun, while also stressing that the team must become more effective when opportunities arise.

Luciano Spalletti is expected to name two of his summer signings in the Juventus starting XI to take on Frosinone away from home on Sunday evening as the Bianconeri get their 2026-27 Serie A season underway.
This is Juve's first competitive outing of the 2026-27 season, but not for the newly-promoted Frosinone, who beat Juve Stabia in the first round of the Coppa Italia last weekend.
Massimiliano Alvini is expected to name a similar line-up to the one that beat Juve Stabia last time out, including a potentially untouched front three of Antonio Raimondo, Fares Ghedjemis and Giorgi Kvernadze. Alessio Zerbin is also in contention to start in attack.
Juventus, meanwhile, are expected to go with new no.1 Guglielmo Vicario in goal along with his former Tottenham teammate Randal Kolo Muani at centre-forward. Kerim Alajbegovic and Zeki Celik are likely to start from the bench.

Juventus begin their Serie A campaign under Luciano Spalletti with an away trip to newly promoted Frosinone on Sunday.The Bianconeri arrive at the season opener after a reassuring pre-season under Spalletti.
Throughout August they showed encouraging form, registering 1–0 and 2–0 wins over Chelsea and Palermo respectively. They completed their warm-up fixtures with a 2–0 victory against Juventus Next Gen. Their only setback in that period was a narrow 1–2 defeat to rivals Inter Milan.
Defensive options are limited as dependable centre-back Federico Gatti is out with an ankle problem, and young forward Jeff Ekhator is also unavailable.
Additionally, goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio has been omitted from the traveling party amid an expected move to Premier League club Bournemouth.
On the bright side, Spalletti confirmed that marquee summer recruits Guglielmo Vicario and Randal Kolo Muani are fully fit and will make their competitive debuts in the starting XI.

Douglas Luiz is back at Juventus, and this time, it looks like he'll stick around.
During his half-season loan spell back at Aston Villa earlier in the year, the Brazilian showcased why the Old Lady shell out north of €50 million for him two summers ago. However, they were only looking temporary reinforcement in place of their injured players and did not sign him back permanently.
Upon his return to Turin, Luiz has found circumstances markedly different to the ones that made him a pariah at the club. His ostracism came about during Thiago Motta's ill-fated term at the club, while Igor Tudor never really took an interest in him. And while Luciano Spalletti did like his profile and what he brought to the table, he never really got the chance.
Until now. Luiz has featured consistently throughout pre-season, having been appreciated by Spalletti and Juve faithful alike. Spalletti likes his ability to dictate the tempo of the game at will, and in his preferred 4-2-3-1 setup Luiz is seemingly fitting in nicely.
Given Khéphren Thuram's persistent knee struggles, he could end up being relied upon even more, and is currently, arguably, one of the first names on the team sheet as Juve prepare to kick off their Serie A campaign against Frosinone this Sunday.

We are entering the final weekend of there being no calcio ahead of the 2026-27 season kicking off next week. And just nine days away from Juventus beginning the new campaign against Frosinone, their goalkeeper situation is very much just as unsettled as it was — and likely much more now! — than it was back at the end of the 2025-26 season when we all knew a change was needed.
Juventus are about to pivot to yet another backup option when it comes to signing a new goalkeeper.
It is now as a result of the potential season-long deal between Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain for Zion Suzuki going from distinct possibility to looking very unlikely to happen all within a day or so. That means the latest pivot to try and bring in a new goalkeeper as a result of Michele Di Gregorio's host of struggles over the last 12 months has taken us to Guglielmo Vicario being described as "the favorite" in terms of potential candidates. (Which, unless there's somebody that Giovanni Carnevali and Frederic Massara are working on in the background that we don't know about, pretty much tells you everything you need to know about the current situation to sign a new goalkeeper.)
However, there's another twist in all this: As Sky Italia's Gianluca Di Marzio said an hour or two ago, "everything is on hold."
Oh … well, that's good, right? Especially with the season all of nine days away from kicking off?

Celtic and Rangers have been pushing to sign Fares Ghedjemis over the last few months and the Frosinone star's valuation has gone up further.
The winger helped the club earn promotion to the Serie A last season, scoring 15 times in the Italian second division. This came as a sign of rising reputation, which led to the Hoops making a January approach which was rejected by Frosinone.
The two Glasgow clubs have made approaches of their own this summer too. Tuttomercatoweb confirm this, revealing that several clubs have expressed interest in the Algerian, who also played one game at the World Cup, being the first player in Frosinone history to play at the tournament.
Now, his valuation has reached €20 million. Monaco have tried to make a move of their own, offering €7 million plus bonuses but this hasn't proved enough.
As a result, it will take a significant effort from every suitor to land the Algeria international.

Celtic have been told to pay €9.5m to sign Farès Ghedjemis. The Algerian winger was name checked by Martin O'Neill last week as a potential summer arrival as he looks to strengthen his squad.
According to transfer journalist Sebastian Vidal, Celtic have been told to increase their offer for the winger by €2.5m.
Celtic are expected to return for Ghedjemis but Frosinone are sticking to their valuation of the player. In any case, Celtic are going to have to pay more than they've currently offered for the winger.
Celtic have added Camilo Duran and Kasper Høgh to bolster their attacking options with the frontmen replacing Daizen Maeda and Kelechi Iheanacho. It was clear after the win over Dundee that Celtic needed an injection of pace into the wide areas to freshen up the squad. Ghedjemis' performances in Serie B caught the attention of Celtic in January but no deal was forthcoming. Now, Celtic need to get deals over the line to make sure that they are in top form for the UCL doubleheader against LASK.

Celtic have revived their interest in Farès Ghedjemis after fresh reports placed the Algerian winger back near the top of the club's shortlist. According to The Herald, the Scottish champions have reopened talks after narrowly missing out on the 23-year-old during the January transfer window, when Frosinone convinced him to remain and help their promotion push from Serie B.
Transfer Feed carried comments from Martin O'Neill, who admitted Celtic hold a "very, very strong interest" in Ghedjemis. While he stopped short of suggesting an agreement is close, O'Neill revealed discussions are progressing well. He added that he could not confirm whether Rangers are actively pursuing the winger despite recent speculation linking the Ibrox side with the same player.
The report states that negotiations for Real Oviedo's Haissem Hassan have slowed, making Ghedjemis a more realistic option. Frosinone are understood to value the Algeria international at around £8 million (€10 million) after a remarkable campaign that transformed his reputation across Italian football.

Statistics explain the growing interest. Ghedjemis finished the 2025/26 Serie B season with 15 goals and three ***** ists from 37 league appearances, playing 3,024 minutes as Frosinone secured automatic promotion by finishing second. His form carried into the international stage, earning regular Algeria call-ups before appearances during the country's run to the FIFA World Cup round of 32.

Rangers are interested in bringing Frosinone attacker Fares Ghedjemis to Ibrox this summer, according to Sky Sports. Bears manager Derek McInnes has been strengthening his Rangers squad this summer as he looks to win the Scottish Premiership next term. The France-born Ghedjemis has now emerged as a target for the Light Blues after Celtic failed with a bid during the last winter transfer window. The 23-year-old Algerian international bagged 15 goals to help Frosinone secure Serie A promotion, which has impressed Rangers.
Ghedjemis featured at the World Cup and a move to Ibrox could now be on the cards. Rangers are now pushing for a deal and are making a strong move as he is their first target to strengthen in attack.
The Frenchman has several suitors keen on recruiting his services this summer, but the Bears appear to be one of the favourites to sign him. Frosinone will have to start looking elsewhere for attacking reinforcements as they look to impress in the Italian top-flight without the Rangers target.

Newly-promoted Frosinone have announced that Gabriele Calvani, Seydou Fini and Giorgio Cittadini have renewed their loans from Genoa and Atalanta.
The Canarini finished second in the Serie B table last season, securing automatic promotion back to the top flight.
They did it largely thanks to a squad packed with young talent on loan from Serie A sides.
Now those are allowed to continue the project at the Stadio Benito Stirpe, as they renewed their loan agreements for one more season.

Matias Soulé could leave Roma.
In June, the Giallorossi instructed the player's agent to find a club interested in the former Frosinone player willing to make an offer before the beginning of July in order to finalize the settlement agreement with UEFA.
Guastadisegno, the Argentine winger's agent, was clear on June 30: "I've received a lot of calls in recent weeks, I've spoken to several clubs, but no one has actually come forward, so we're not going anywhere. Soulé is an ******* et to Roma, and if someone inside is spreading such rumors, it will only harm Matias, an exemplary professional who has given everything to this club."
Soulé could move to the Premier League. As reported by Corriere dello Sport, the player's agent is in England negotiating with Sunderland and Fulham, two clubs that have expressed interest in the Argentine winger.
The former Frosinone player's book value is approximately €15.5 million, so a transfer of around €35 million would allow Roma to realize a capital gain of between €20 and €21 million. The Giallorossi are awaiting offers around these figures. These are crucial hours for Matias Soulé's future.

Matias Soulé could leave Roma.
Although the Giallorossi club made it through June 30 without making any major transfers, the 2003-born player remains on the move.
Gian Piero Gasperini is looking for two starting strikers behind Malen, and in the coming weeks, the Argentine winger could be the prime candidate to leave the capital.
The former Frosinone player, despite a difficult second half of the season due to groin pain, has attracted the attention of several clubs, including Sunderland, where former Roma sporting director Ghisolfi works.
In the end, Soulé could move to the Premier League. According to English portal teamtalk.com, Ghisolfi, who brought the Argentine winger to Roma in 2024, is interested in signing the 2003-born player to strengthen Sunderland's squad.
