As the transfer window enters its final days, clubs are scrambling to finalize deals for players seeking more playing time. Among them is Nicolò Fagioli, the Juventus midfielder who has yet to secure a move away from Turin.
Calciomercato report that despite Juventus manager Thiago Motta including Fagioli in the squad for today’s match against Empoli and praising his potential to make history with the club, a departure remains a distinct possibility.
Recent discussions between Juventus and AC Milan regarding Fikayo Tomori, although unsuccessful, also touched upon Fagioli’s situation. Milan could use reinforcement in midfield, but the clubs have failed to agree on the player’s valuation.
Similarly, talks with Fiorentina hit a roadblock when Juventus insisted on an obligation to buy clause with easily achievable conditions. This led Fiorentina to shift their focus to Ndour instead.
However, the final hours of the transfer window could see a flurry of activity. Fiorentina is attempting to offload Richardson, with Stuttgart showing interest. If successful, the Viola would then target Marseille’s Ismael Koné on a loan with an option to buy. This move could prompt Marseille to renew their interest in Fagioli.
