Jonathan David, Milan’s priority for 2024
After trying to recruit him this summer, AC Milan intends to return to the charge for Jonathan David in 2024. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the LOSC striker, whose contract expires in 2025, is indeed the club’s priority. Lombard for the next transfer window. However, we will have to deal with competition from several Premier League clubs.
Our opinion: Milan will probably need to replace the indefatigable Giroud next year. Interest in Jonathan David is notorious in Italy.
Paredes-Sanches, complicated debut at Roma…
The story doesn’t start well. Arrived at the very end of the transfer window from PSG, Renato Sanches and Leandro Paredes are experiencing their first major difficulties. The first, on loan from the capital club, is already injured and hopes to take advantage of this international break to recover. As for the second, he is described by La Gazzetta dello Sport as a “slow player and without ideas”. In the end, and for the moment, only Houssem Aouar therefore seems to be convincing. But the former OL midfielder was injured in the last game against AC Milan (1-2).
Our opinion: Surprising? Not really… However, it is worth remembering that the season has only just begun.
… while Guendouzi ignites Lazio
In the other part of Rome, the blue and white one, the newcomer Mattéo Guendouzi is already setting Lazio on fire. Came into play against Napoli on Saturday (1-2), the midfielder, who was denied a goal, has already convinced. “A leader’s personality, the stride of a very pure diamond (…) He occupies time and space, gives oxygen and balance. A perfect recruit (…) It was the missing piece in the middle (…) And now, how to do without it against Juve? Since the arrival of the experienced Leiva, no rookie had had this immediate impact”, can we read in the edition of the Roman daily Il Messaggero.
The daily confirms the details of the deal with OM: paid loan (1 million euros), purchase obligation of 12 million euros, 5 million bonuses largely linked to qualification for the Champions League and 10 % on resale.
Our opinion: Our transalpine colleagues sometimes tend to ignite a little too quickly. But it is true that Guendouzi made a very good first entry on Saturday.
Guendouzi sold off: “OM shot themselves in the foot”
De Laurentiis, the scathing response for Osimhen
This is a revelation made by L’Equipe. In its Sunday edition, the daily revealed the content of an email sent by Aurelio De Laurentiis, the president of Napoli, to intermediaries mandated by the Saudi club Al-Hilal, wishing to recruit Victor Osimhen. “Your offer can only buy one foot of Osimhen. For next year I think you will be able to offer 500 million and we will probably consider your offer, but I repeat: ‘maybe’.” The player’s agent was copied.
Our opinion: Behind the scenes, Naples now hopes to extend Osimhen (who faltered against the Saudi offensive). With probably the promise of a start in the Premier League next year.

Tait will leave Rennes
Absent in Brest, Flavien Tait will leave Stade Rennais. According to L’Equipe, the 30-year-old midfielder is about to sign a three-year contract with Samsunspor (Turkey). “It is a free transfer with bonuses for the Breton club”, it is specified. Our opinion: A separation expected and in the process of being confirmed.
Ramos arrives in Seville
According to Fabrizio Romano, Sergio Ramos will return to Sevilla FC well. Free of any contract, the former PSG defender should sign a contract until June 2024.
Our opinion: Ramos has refused Saudi offers to return to Andalusia. The circle is complete.
Schmeichel to Anderlecht
After breaking his contract with OGC Nice, Kasper Schmeichel should rebound in Anderlecht. The goalkeeper will sign a one-season lease according to Foot Mercato and Fabrizio Romano.
Our opinion: Schmeichel wanted to find a quick rebound. It’s done.
Carrasco arrives in Saudi Arabia
Yannick Carrasco to Al-Shabab, it’s imminent. As announced, the Belgian international from Atlético Madrid arrived in Saudi Arabia in the last hours, where he should earn a net salary of 15 million euros per year according to Fabrizio Romano.
Our opinion: At 30, Carrasco will therefore leave European football to join the new Eldorado of football. Understandable, but unfortunate.
