Europe’s giants eye Ndour, Roma-Inter knocks, Spalletti idea: today 🔥

Europe’s giants eye Ndour, Roma-Inter knocks, Spalletti idea: today 🔥 The Europa League kicks off today, with Milan hosting Benfica at San Siro at 9 PM and Juve facing NEC tomorrow at the Allianz Stadium. In short, these are important fixtures for Amorim and Spalletti, who head into their respective European debuts in very different moods . On one side, there is a Milan side still under construction but with some exciting new developments that have brought enthusiasm back around the Rossoneri; on the other, a Juventus team in serious trouble , coming off the defeat in Reggio Emilia against Sassuolo.

Let’s take a look at today’s news together. 💡 Juventus, Woltemade to start? The idea Nick Woltemade is preparing for his first start with Juventus . After the defeat to Sassuolo, Luciano Spalletti is considering several changes for the European clash against NEC, and the German is a candidate to lead the Bianconeri attack. It is a choice also dictated by the many absences, but one that could allow the coach to take a closer look at the striker in an official match. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport , the idea is to play Woltemade and Kolo Muani together , but without having them operate in the same area of the pitch: the German could move more centrally, making use of his physicality and quality, while the Frenchman would be freer to drift wider.  🆕 Milan, surprise starter against Benfica Filippo Terracciano has stayed at Milan and is now preparing for an important new opportunity. Back from Cremonese after the club’s relegation, the 2003-born player had seemed destined to leave again, but the work he put in during preseason convinced Ruben Amorim to keep faith in him at least until January. The first reward could come tonight in the Europa League against Benfica, where Terracciano is expected to start as the right-sided centre-back in a back three. The choice is also helped by the greater continuity he has had with the group compared to Tomori, while Gila is expected to be rested . For Terracciano, who has made 24 appearances in total for Milan, this opens up a new chance to earn a bigger role with the Rossoneri. 🤕 Inter, the latest ahead of Roma! Pio or Thuram? After the comeback against Udinese , Inter are preparing for the trip to the Olimpico to face Roma , but Cristian Chivu has several absences to deal with. The main one concerns Çalhanoğlu , who has been ruled out with a muscle issue in the adductor of his right thigh: the Turk is expected to return only for the match against Parma on October 10. In his place there will once again be Zielinski , who already impressed against Udinese and provided the decisive assist in the comeback. There are also problems in defence, where John Stones will be unavailable due to an issue with the flexor muscles in his left thigh that should keep him out for about a month. Chivu is therefore expected to rely on Akanji in the centre and Bisseck on the centre-right, while on the flanks Dimarco is in line to return to the starting XI and the battle between Luis Henrique and Diouf remains open. Djed Spence is still unavailable. There are no doubts in attack, however: the Lautaro-Thuram partnership will start. ⏳ Napoli, Lucca has until January! Max Allegri continues to back Lorenzo Lucca , but the coach’s patience may have its limits. The manager is trying to help the striker recover through trust and responsibility, giving him important opportunities to help him turn things around. According to Il Roma , however, if the centre-forward fails to convince over the next few months, the green light for a sale could come in January . Allegri’s aim is to prevent the €35 million Napoli invested in Lucca from turning into a failed deal. The coach therefore wants to wait and assess the player over the coming months before making a final decision, with the winter transfer window a possible turning point. 🤕 Roma, issue for Hermoso! Roma continue their preparations for the big match against Inter , and there is good news from the treatment room. Wesley and Evan Ndicka have recovered and will be fully available to Gasperini for the Olimpico clash. Neither featured against Torino, but the latest updates have ruled out any issues serious enough to prevent them from being involved against the Nerazzurri. The one who did suffer a problem, however, is Mario Hermoso . The Spaniard missed group training today after taking a knock to the ankle but, barring surprises, he should be back in time for Inter. ⚠️ Lazio, Doekhi with a brace! Rovella stops Lazio are preparing for the trip to face Venezia , after the 2-2 draw with Milan, with a few updates from the treatment room. Danilho Doekhi is ready to return despite a fracture in his left hand: the defender could feature at the Penzo wearing a protective brace . The situation is different for Adam Marusic , who will have to wait until the international break and is targeting a return against Monza on October 10. Danilo Cataldi should also be back during the break, as he is currently working on regaining fitness and training individually. Nicolò Rovella , on the other hand, has been sidelined, and he will use the league stoppage to recover and return to Rino Gattuso’s disposal. 🤑 Fiorentina, so many European giants on Ndour Cher Ndour remains under observation in the Premier League. The Fiorentina midfielder has reportedly especially attracted the attention of Liverpool , described by TEAMtalk as the club most interested. The 2004-born player, who arrived in Florence after spells with PSG, Benfica and Besiktas, has already earned his first appearances for the senior Italy national team as well. But it is not only the Reds: Manchester United have also tracked the player, while last summer Aston Villa, Newcastle, Brighton, Crystal Palace and Hull City all made enquiries. Any potential sale would also have to take into account the agreement with PSG , who retain a 50% share of any future resale of Ndour: a significant part of Fiorentina’s possible capital gain would therefore end up in the Parisian club’s coffers, as also highlighted by TMW .
