It is therefore a less hectic day, but not one without news. Here are the biggest stories involving the top clubs. Juventus retain faith in Spalletti, but Napoli clash is crucial According to information gathered by Fabrizio Romano, Juventus-Napoli will be a pivotal moment for Luciano Spalletti's future. For now, the Juventus board still has great faith in the coach despite the poor results. The coach did not simply accept the decision to hold a training retreat, either: he strongly advocated it. Getting a result in the big match would make things easier. A setback would probably not lead to his dismissal, but it would worsen an already critical situation. Milan, Pulisic: "I've always wanted to extend my contract" After his contract extension until 2031 was officially announced earlier today, Milan star Christian Pulisic gave an interview to Sky. "I'm very happy. Extending my contract has always been what I wanted. I've always wanted to stay here, where I feel a lot of trust in me. I'm very happy here. We know the derby is very intense. It's a battle, and tomorrow will be no different. I always want to score, not just in the derby. I want to help the team. We want to win. We know Inter have won a lot in recent years and play very well. We always want to win: when you wear this shirt, it can't be any other way. Of course, it takes time because there's a new coach with new ideas, but we want to win straight away too. We have a good relationship with the staff and the coach. We're very happy and learn something every day. Now we have to keep improving and win the league. A dream? Right now, the dream is still the same one I had when I arrived." Inter: Carlos Augusto to start in the derby Seasons change, players change, but one thing remains constant at Inter: their most in-form player continues to be their left wing-back. Last year, Federico Dimarco was unstoppable; now it is Carlos Augusto's turn. The Brazilian will get the nod again in the derby, partly because Dimash did not train yesterday. There was no injury or other problem, but rather some wonderful news: he became a father. Napoli: Rizzetta not giving up as club valuation emerges Matt Rizzetta has not given up on his dream of buying Napoli. The American businessman, founder of Underdog Global Partners and owner of Napoli Basketball, is aiming to buy the club from the De Laurentiis family, but a significant financial gap remains. The president also continues to show no interest in selling. As reported by CalcioNapoli24, citing Sportico's reports, the asking valuation is believed to be around €2 billion, while Underdog's estimate ranges from €1 billion to €1.3 billion. Rizzetta would like to reach a deal by 2027 before considering other options. Roma eye Lisandro Martinez, but face fierce competition Manchester United centre-back Lisandro Martinez is heading for the exit at the Red Devils. The Argentine, whose contract expires at the end of the season, does not appear willing to renew. According to AS, Roma have shown interest in him. Competition is fierce, however: Inter and Como are considering him in Serie A, as are Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in La Liga. Lazio's midfield is worth €100 million As highlighted by Repubblica, Gennaro Gattuso's excellent work at Lazio is sending the squad's value soaring. President Claudio Lotito is enjoying the situation ahead of the upcoming transfer windows. The best example is the midfield. Kenneth Taylor, Reda Belahyane and Davide Frattesi are estimated to have a combined value of around €100 million. Fiorentina: Will Pedro Goncalves' move not be made permanent? Pedro Goncalves' lack of playing time at Fiorentina is surprising not only Viola fans but also Portuguese football insiders. A Bola reports that a permanent move from Sporting is becoming increasingly unlikely. After the €2.5 million loan fee, another €22.5 million would be needed to exercise the option to buy. For the purchase obligation to be triggered, the forward would have to play at least 45 minutes in more than 50% of matches. At the moment, he is nowhere near those figures.
