Both players have been strongly linked with the Nerazzurri for the past few months, although it has now taken until the final week of the current transfer window for the Milanese outfit to confirm their arrivals.
Inter have already confirmed via Twitter that the Brazilian starlet has arrived in Northern Italy, whilst the Portuguese 23-year-old is also set so land in Milan imminently.
Frank de Boer will be delighted to have fought off strong competition from Juventus to seal Gabigol’s signature, whilst he now aims to recover from their opening day defeat to Chievo.
As for Mario, Inter have finally came to an agreement with Sporting Clube de Portugal, with the player now set to also sign a deal on Friday.
Mario recently helped Portugal secure the European Championship in France, and is likely to cost Inter an estimated €45 million, whilst Gabigol has been rumoured to cost around €30m. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/inter-gabigol-mario/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/1e81fc833b40cf893203318e35f22ea6d852708a088a293113d04bb6b7307a2b.json |

Having found opportunities at the San Siro difficult to come by, the former Parma man could be forced to seek a move as that situation is unlikely to change under Vincenzo Montella in the season ahead.
While Empoli are willing to offer him a route out of the Rossoneri in the coming days, although Mauri himself would like guarantees about his role at the Stadio Carlo Castellani if he were to make the move.
“Jose Mauri is an interesting player,” Empoli sporting director Marcello Carli told Il Milanista. “He is a player who, in my opinion, has to go somewhere where he can find space and play regularly.
“Should he arrive here, then I have no doubt he has the quality to play consistently. I would like to insist though that he isn’t our player, he is only a player who we like.”
The 20-year-old, who has a contract until 2019 at the San Siro, made just five Serie A appearances for the Diavolo last season. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/empoli-determined-sign-mauri-ac-milan/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/c965d1a87af3b8e06c6962afbeb53cfa10b29b942cf18e565034bbbe308a2c1b.json |

The Dutch tactician, who replaced Roberto Mancini earlier this month, saw his maiden season in Italian football get off to the worst possible start as the Nerazzurri fell to a 2-0 defeat to Chievo last weekend.
However, since then Inter have been active in the transfer market, bringing in Gabigol and João Mário, which has prompted observers to suggest they may be in the running for the Scudetto. De Boer dampened expectations somewhat, but insisted the goal is to make a return to Europe’s premier competition after a five year absence.
“It is clear that we need to show improvements each week,” the former Ajax coach told reporters on Saturday. “WE have to do that first, the players need to show pride in playing for a team like Inter. I am convinced we will see a different Inter against Palermo.
“We are not at the top of our game yet and have to improve our physical condition. The historic goal of Inter is to reach the Champions League and I am convinced we will achieve it this year.”
The 46-year-old also revealed his intention to deploy Chilean midfielder Gary Medel at centre-back, as the Biscione’s woes in defence continued against Chievo.
“He has played many times in defence for his national team. I spoke with him and he showed me his willingness to play in both midfield and defence. He is a great player and although we have good defenders, he gives us an additional option, which is important,” de Boer concluded. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/inter/de-boer-champions-league-hopes/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/fe645f86002cc2ae3f6fdffe3ec8157435917f3f6225332125f997ae0482042f.json |

New Azzurri boss Giampiero Ventura is to announce his first national squad on Saturday night following Juventus’ clash with Lazio in Rome as his side prepare to take on France in a friendly and Israel in a World Cup qualifier.
Donnarumma will make up part of the squad, shelving his plans to enjoy some rest and relaxation time with family over the international break.
A native of Castellammare di Stabia near Naples, the 17-year-old planned to go there immediately after Milan’s Serie A clash with Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo on Saturday night to spend time with family.
However, he will now be making the trip to Coverciano to link up with the Italy senior squad for the first time in his career and learn from current Azzurri custodian Gianluigi Buffon.
Donnarumma is already the youngest starting goalkeeper in any of Europe’s top five major leagues and saved his first penalty in Serie A last weekend when he prevented Andrea Belotti rescuing a point for Torino at the San Siro with the final kick of the game. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/azzurri/donnarumma-ac-milan-first-call-up/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/ec7c50fb8cccc4b7cc5b7ea794f8aefa2363fc2c776b6b727ca669915abd8384.json |

The group’s top seeds Viktoria Plzen will make their first visit to the Eternal City but do have a decent record against Italian sides as after losing their first game against AC Milan, they followed that up with a draw against the Diavolo before winning twice against Napoli without conceding.
There have been 67 previous meetings between Italian sides and Czech outfits, with the peninsula teams holding the decided upper hand with 32 wins to 15.
Plzen haven’t won any of their last nine games in Europe, drawing four of their last five during that time.
Austria Vienna are another unfamiliar side to the Giallorossi and have just one win over Inter in 1983 to show from 10 previous meetings with Italian opposition.
Roma have won in two previous games against Austrian sides when they defeated Wacker Innsbruck, winning 4-1 and 1-0 in the 1992/93 UEFA Cup.
Astra Giurgiu have never played either Roma or any Italian side in European competition before but are a side to watch out for, given that they eliminated West Ham in the playoff round.
A clean sheet in the second leg in London ended a run of seven games without one in Europe and saw them through to the group stage, which is the furthest stage they have reached in this competition.
Roma have only lost one of their six previous games against Romanian opposition, winning three and drawing twice. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/europa-league/roma-uncharted-territory/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/f5a6cbbd88b882e3455135402cd97ee2988a5992f9f79c3633f9c38abf556763.json |

The birth of a pioneer in Alpine climbing coincided with one of the earlier Italy internationals, plus an Olympic medal and a Serie A season curtain raiser.
1859 – Vittorio Sella, who changed the landscape in the art of mountaineering, was born in the shadow of the Alps in Biella. He made the first winter ascents of the Matterhorn and Monte Rosa, and the first winter traverse of Mont Blanc. He also made trips afield to Asia, and the photographs he took across the world of mountains were treasured greatly. Many of the photographs he took were of grand mountains not yet recorded, never mind not yet captured within a lense.
1920 – In just their 23rd recognised international fixture, Italy claimed a narrow 2-1 victory over Egypt in the Olympic Games. Goals from Adolfo Baloncieri and Guglielmo Brezzi both got their names on the scoresheet either side of half time to send the Azzurri through to the quarter finals of the Games, where a very strong and formidable France side was waiting for them.
2004 – Italy won a silver medal in the women’s rhythmic group all-around gymnastics event at the Olympic Games in Athens. The group of six women athletes performed admirably with their technical value, artistic value and execution – but their competitors from Russia were a class above and took the gold. Bulgaria, meanwhile, came in third with a bronze.
2010 – The new Serie A season got off to a rather muted start, with just one goal across two games meaning that it was Genoa who sat proudly atop the standings after the first day of fixtures. After Roma and Cesena laboured to a 0-0 draw, Giandomenico Mesto struck late against Udinese to hand the Rossoblu three points and a perfect start to the campaign. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/features/day-august-28/ | en | 2016-08-28T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/5721672cc804289cc4870b885ab7703ed89eb21ca9544a67f2a6808eb52e29fb.json |

The German netted the only goal of the game in the second half, making it two wins from as many matches for the Bianconeri so far in Serie A.
Although Juve had a hard time breaking down Lazio over the course of the 90 minutes, Allegri was pleased with Khedira’s contribution given the Turin side’s struggles overall.
“Great players have to feel good” Allegri told Premium Sport. “Like all the others in the team he is fantastic and can manage a situation even when it isn’t going well.
“It wasn’t easy today. Lazio were well organised and didn’t allow us any chances in the first half. For example, [Kwadwo] Asamoah made six mistakes though it wasn’t all his fault, but the team’s.
“In the second, we did well, though we will improve as we are only on the second week of the season. We are doing a bit better than at this time last year though.”
Next up for Juventus is a home match against Sassuolo after the international break. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/juventus/allegri-organised-lazio-tough/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/7fdec30d80c9760bfd7d616855b7a24953d095e52d44f49b00832c1645d29ca3.json |

The 19-year-old has attracted interest from several of Europe’s top sides, including Valencia, Roma, Leicester City and Juventus, after an impressive maiden campaign with the Felsinei.
As a a result, Diawara refused to attend pre-season training with Bologna in order to force a move, only to incur the wrath of the club and coach Roberto Donadoni.
However it looks as though his wish was granted, as Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis confirmed on Twitter that the Guinea native has joined the Partenopei.
Benvenuto anche a te Diawara #ADL — AurelioDeLaurentiis (@ADeLaurentiis) August 26, 2016
While financial details aren’t confirmed at this time, it’s believed the Azzurri may have to part with as much as €15 million to secure Diawara.
That would result in quite the profit for Bologna, who only signed the midfielder last summer from San Marino for €600,000.
Diawara made 34 Serie A appearances for the Rossoblu last season. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/napoli-diawara-signing/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/0dce6f77c3a268ea54f8fe98517d35da9d1f1d7502b5f8d557bb935659c4c2e6.json |

The Englishman’s grid penalty rose to 55 places due to continual engine tampering, although he currently remains 19 points clear of his rival in the race for the title.
On Saturday, Hamilton left the track in 21st place after completing just one circuit and will start from last position – where no driver has ever before fought back from to claim victory.
Rosberg will lead the charge from the front of the grid after he edged out Max Verstappen of Red Bull by 0.149 seconds, while Kimi Raikkonnen secured third for Ferrari, beating out Sebastian Vettel who suffered from a lack of traction in the closing stages.
The German finished fourth in the end and rounding out the top five was Daniel Ricciardo after he made a mess of his final attempt.

The Azzurri slumped to a 2-2 draw against Pescara last weekend, while the Rossoneri impressed, despite clinging on at the end, to secure a 3-2 win over Torino.
With the two teams set to clash on Saturday night, Sarri knows Milan will provide a stiff test for his side.
“It won’t be easy against Milan,” he told reporters. “I’ve seen all of their friendlies, and Montella has given them an identity.
“They didn’t make any big signings, but they did last summer, and if they can get the most out of them they will do well.
“It will be a complicated game. After playing poorly in the first half against Pescara, the team must be angry. We know we can do better.”
With the transfer market nearing a close, Sarri is counting on keeping hold of Manolo Gabbiadini, as he made it clear he isn’t paying attention to any of the reports linking him with a move to Everton.
“I don’t care about transfer rumours,” he added. “Manolo is available after training the entire week with us.
“He usually starts slow and he is being taken into consideration as it wasn’t his fault we played poorly in the first half against Pescara.” | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/napoli/sarri-montella-milan-identity/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/66e651ff30f3374103493718e4e052b8737e683121374f1db5977adc073145b3.json |

That opposition are Sparta Prague, who have played the Biscione once previously in Europe – Inter picking up two wins from two matches, scoring four and conceding none in the 1969/70 Fairs Cup.
Inter are undefeated in matches against sides from either the Czech Republic or Czechoslovakia thanks to a win and a draw from their UEFA Cup clash against Dukla Prague in 1986/87.
Sparta’s record against Italian teams reads as played: 28, won: four, drawn: 11, lost: 13 and they face a Serie A side for the third successive season, having played Napoli in 2014/15 and Lazio the following year.
Uncharted territory awaits in the form of the other two sides in the group. Southampton have never played against the Biscione before and are in fact facing an Italian team for the first time in their history.
Inter are no strangers to trip to England themselves though and have played 34 matches against English opposition, winning 13 of those and losing 15.
The Saints will be hoping to arrest their recent continental slump when the group phase begins as they have won just two of their last 13 European contests, drawing seven and losing four.
Hapoel Beer-Sheva of Israel have also never made the trip to Italy before and despite losing just one of their six Champions League games this season, a 5-2 defeat against Celtic proved costly as they fell into the Europa League.
In four of the six European games they have played so far this year, Hapoel have kept clean sheets, although they did concede seven times across the others. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/europa-league/inter-opposition-unaccustomed-italian-jobs/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/09cc403297141622cb483cf254183c5c570e9be8aaa65507517ebf2ca25d383f.json |

City have been drawn in Group C alongside Barca, Borussia Moenchengladbach and Celtic, with Guardiola set to return to the club where he began his career and managed with distinction for four seasons.
“I can’t deny it’s something special for me to return to Barcelona,” he told reporters on Friday. “I grew up there, to play there at 13 to become a footballer.
“Most of my life I spent there, I know the people, the club, the media, most of the players, the emotion is there.”
Guardiola has come up against Barca before, and will be hoping that his City side enjoy better fortunes than Bayern Munich, who lost 5-3 on aggregate in the 2014-15 semi-finals.
“It happened with Bayern,” he added. “The first time it’s ‘wow’, the second time it’s the second time, then it’s normal.”
City also have to negotiate Scottish champions Celtic and Gladbach, who finished fourth in the Bundesliga last season.
“We’ll have to make our best performance to go through to the next stage. I know Barcelona quite well and Borussia Moenchengladbach.
“I have a lot of respect for Celtic. They have a lot of experience in Europe.”
Guardiola has enjoyed a 100 percent record at City, seeing off Steaua Bucharest 6-0 on aggregate in the Champions League playoff and dispatching Sunderland and Stoke City in the Premier League.
He will not be handing a debut to new goalkeeper Claudio Bravo for the visit of West Ham United on Sunday, while Kelechi Iheanacho should be in contention after an injury scare against Steaua.
“Kelechi was almost nothing so it was a scare but he’s fine,” Guardiola said. “Everybody’s fit and ready, we trained with 30 players today.”

The Brazilian landed in Milan on Friday ahead of what was expected to be a €25 million move from Santos.
However all of that may change, with UOL in Brazil reporting that Inter increased their bid to €28m in order to secure Gabigol’s services immediately.
The money will be split between the player and club, with the Brazilian side still only receiving €18m despite the increased offer.
While Santos were hoping to have Barbosa for one last game, it appears his Inter career will begin once he puts pen to paper on a contract that will see him earn €3.5m a season.
Gabigol has featured in 156 games for Santos since making his debut back in 2013, netting 56 times.

The former Torino coach took over from new Chelsea tactician Antonio Conte at the conclusion of Euro 2016 and has finally been able to name his first squad, which sees a number of players in line to make their debuts.
Perhaps the highest-profile players to receive a call up are AC Milan duo Gianluigi Donnarumma and Alessio Romagnoli. The former, who at just 17-years-old becomes the youngest player to be named in a senior Italy squad since 1911, could be set for a debut in goal.
Meanwhile, Romagnoli has been drafted in as one of nine defenders, alongside the uncapped Daniele Rugani of Juventus.
Ventura has called upon a striker he knows well from his time in Turin, as Andrea Belotti is named in the squad. Similarly, Genoa‘s Leonardo Pavoletti, who is yet to represent the Azzurri at any level, could be set to win his first cap.
Juventus centre-back Andrea Barzagli joins up with the squad after reversing his decision to retire from international duty after Euro 2016, whilst Manolo Gabbiadini and Graziano Pelle are also included. Ventura has retained 15 players from the European Championship, whilst Marco Verratti returns from injury. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/azzurri/quintet-debuts-ventura-italy-squad/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/e38a3719fa38d5233dca6659de0c875fed9a60b55aeb5df6e5b1a3568f98ca06.json |

The Diavolo came back from two goals down to level the match, only to see Jose Callejon make it 3-2 for the home side.
Napoli’s bid to close the contest was aided by the fact that Juraj Kucka and M’Baye Niang were given their marching orders, drawing Montella’s ire.
“We helped them out by earning two red cards,” he told Premium Sport. “I can’t accept continued dissent with the referee, regardless of whether a bad call was made.
“Playing with 10-men complicated things, and with nine the mountain became too high for us to claim.”
The lack of discipline was all the more disappointing considering Montella thought his men were better than Napoli for much of the match.
“I’m happy with the performance but disappointed by the fact we dropped points,” he added. ‘We were better than Napoli during the opening 20 minutes, but they scored with their first chance.
“We looked like a great team after the restart before the red cards. It wasn’t easy to score two goals against the Azzurri, as we should remember they finished second last season.
“It’s a shame we conceded to make it 3-2 as it would have made the end of the match more exciting.”

Jose Callejon and Arkadiusz Milik got two goals each in the 4-2 win over the Rossoneri, who also had Juraj Kucka and Niang sent off.
The 57-year-old tactician was sent to the stands after protesting Milan’s first goal, as it looked like Riccardo Montolivo committed a foul in the build up.
“On the first goal there was a clear foul on Jorginho and that made us nervous,” Sarri explained to Premium Sport.
“I then just said ‘what the hell are you doing? [to the referee]. There was no threatening tone or anything offensive. It is probably easer just to send me off, instead of another coach who is wearing a suit.”
Milan did well to bring the score back to 2-2 after being two goals down, and after going on to take all three points Sarri was in the end happy with the performance.
“The result reflects what we saw on the pitch,” he continued. “We [Napoli] only had five minutes where we weren’t concentrating.
“Their [Milan’s] best player was [Gianluigi] Donnarumma and it was hard when they mad it 2-2. It was also every warm and difficult to play football. So all things considered we did well.”
With the end of the transfer window just days away, Napoli are still looking to strengthen their squad and have been linked to Torino defender Nikola Maksimovic, who Granata coach Sinisa Mihajlovic has been critical of.
“I know nothing,” Sarri exclaimed. “I would like to get a central defender though, given [Lorenzo] Tonelli isn’t in the best condition and [Kalidou] Koulibaly will be going to the African Cup of Nations.” | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/napoli/sarri-ac-milan-sent-off/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/76348c1b65e14b522c7dd76f86ca8f4b138ea90bf5639b73516252ce4d87b96c.json |

Despite recovering from a 2-0 goal deficit to draw level, Milan collapsed late on and were forced to see out the game with just nine men, with Juraj Kucka and M’Baye Niang receiving their marching orders.
Whilst Suso was excellent throughout and capped his night with a goal, Kucka suffered a nightmare and will be looking to move on as swiftly as possible.
Goalkeeper and Defence
Gianluigi Donnarumma – 7
Proved to be a reliable despite his tender age, once again. Donnarumma made some smart stops and was a commanding presence behind a shaky defence. The 17-year-old was helpless for Napoli’s goals and prevented it being a rout.
Ignazio Abate – 5
Blazed over with the goal gaping after only five minutes in what was to be a performance Abate will look to move on from quickly. Mertens tore him to shreds throughout and whilst he wasn’t helped by Kucka’s dismissal, Milan coach Vincenzo Montella will have expected better from the experienced right-back.
Gustavo Gomez – 5.5
Thrown in for his Serie A debut, the Paraguayan looked far from assured and was easily beaten by Mertens in the build up to the opening goal. Gomez far from disgraced himself in his first game, but will need to learn the ropes sooner rather than later if he is to survive in Serie A.
Alessio Romagnoli – 6
Heralded as the next Alessandro Nesta, Chelsea target Romagnoli is in a rotten patch of form at the moment and it showed no signs of abating. Although he improved on last weekend’s horror show, the former Roma defender was poor for much of the contest and capped his display with a late own goal, despite his efforts to claw the ball away with his hand.
Mattia De Sciglio – 5
Back in the starting line-up, the Italy full-back struggled to deal with Callejon and was unable to get off the back foot when facing the Spaniard. The full-back simply could not get tight enough and was exposed time and again. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/milan/ratings-superb-suso-not-enough/ | en | 2016-08-28T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/2140f68fabe0255ef0b9aff04b6158c7d8fb2ecbed8f773cd13a1db29161ff8f.json |

Cillessen moves from Dutch giants Ajax for an initial fee of €13 million with a further €2m in variables, while Bravo leaves after two very successful seasons at the Nou Camp to join Pep Guardiola at Manchester City for €18m plus €2m in bonuses.
Marc-Andre ter Stegen became frustrated with his place, or lack thereof, in the team last season, his frustrations peaking during December’s Club World Cup competition, where Bravo played ahead of the German.
The Chilean’s excellent performances in goal made it hard to drop him, although the club knew that the future was ultimately in the safe hands of ter Stegen.
City have solved Barcelona’s problem for them with Pep Guardiola at pains to show current No.1 Joe Hart the exit door and replace him with a goalkeeper that has the requisite footwork and ball playing abilities to suit his style of football.
Economically the transfers make a great deal of sense; not only are the Catalans selling Bravo for €5m more than they are buying Cillessen, but they are also making a profit on the Chilean, whom they bought from Real Sociedad in 2014 for €15m.
There are those, however, who feel that a goalkeeper of Bravo’s quality should not move for less than €40m, (although this is highly unlikely given he is 33 years of age), while at the same time strengthening one of their main rivals in the Champions League.
The Blaugrana won’t have to wait long to see Bravo back in Barcelona however, as his new team were drawn in the same group as his old charges in this year’s Champions League, where they will also face Borussia Monchengladbach and Celtic.
Meanwhile, Cillessen passed his medical on Friday and made a point of stating that he is not coming to Barcelona to accept his supposedly predetermined role as backup goalkeeper.

The Rossoneri have had a quiet summer, only bringing in the likes of Jose Sosa, Gianluca Lapadula, Leonel Vangioni and Gustavo Gomez, but vice-president Adriano Galliani is keen to add another reinforcement.
Landing a new midfielder for coach Vincenzo Montella appears to be the main goal, with Kovacic previously being the top target.
However, with Los Blancos making it clear they will be keeping the Croatian, Galliani has since turned his attention to Stambouli, who only joined PSG last summer.
The French giants signed the 26-year-old from Tottenham for €8 million, and while he made 23 Ligue 1 appearances last season, playing time may be harder to come by this year due to the signing of Grzegorz Krychowiak from Sevilla.
Other names linked with Milan are Leandro Paredes of Roma and Bologna’s Amadou Diawara, though moves for either player haven’t gained traction due to their price tag. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/stambouli-midfielder-milan/ | en | 2016-08-19T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/168229f9d1162dd3395f24effb90d7822968d632851caa09a2e33da59d871d3a.json |

Overnight, Inter also reached an agreement with Sporting after drawn out negotiations and Joao Mario is set to become an Inter player within the coming days and could even be signed on Friday.
The Euro 2016 winner is set to join on an initial loan deal before making the move permanent next summer, with the overall value of the deal being €45 million.
Despite reports to the contrary in recent days, Inter youngster Pedro Delgado is not included in the deal whatsoever as no agreement was reached between the Portuguese midfielder and the Lisbon club.
Delgado, who had been linked to the deal as a potential sweetner for Sporting, is currently being chased by clubs in both England and Italy. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/inter-finally-clinch-joao-mario-deal/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/c551ddb3e7f7a1117c63b933a89f2cd6ad45dcff804d7accbefbcb39fdd033cb.json |

Now at Besiktas, the 32-year-old went through an extremely unsuccessful spell at Inter between 2008 and 2010, winning the unwanted Bidone d’Oro award for his performances in his debut season.
However, Turkish media outlet Fanatik are now linking the Portugal international, who won Euro 2016 with his country this summer, with a shock return to Italian football on the other side of the Milan city divide.
They report that due to the Rossoneri’s difficulties in trying to sign Anwar El Ghazi, they have now turned their attention to the former Porto winger instead.
Milan have had dealings with Quaresma’s clubs already this summer, having secured the signing of Jose Sosa from the Istanbul outfit after lengthy negotiations. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/rumour/ac-milan-swoop-quaresma-inter/ | en | 2016-08-23T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/9830a42306de5ff04f530d9a2daba48d10996a9ed93ff93296566ece01fb5737.json |

The Old Lady first registered an interest in the Azzurri international in the wake of last season’s Coppa Italia final between the two clubs but nothing came of it before Euro 2016.
A bid has now been tabled by Juventus, who have made a request to take De Sciglio on loan for the season with an option to purchase him outright at the end of the campaign.
However, Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani responded to that bid with a definitive no as the club are determined to keep hold of the defender with so little time left in the transfer window to replace him.
Napoli also made their interest in De Sciglio known this summer but they were met with the same negative response as the Diavolo value the 23-year-old at €30 million, their same asking price for top scorer Carlos Bacca.
Unlike Bacca, the Rossoneri aren’t actively looking to offload the club’s youth product, who impressed the Milan hierarchy with his performances for Italy at Euro 2016 in France. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/juventus-final-push-de-sciglio-ac-milan/ | en | 2016-08-19T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/fbaead5e9d49789b277048623c26fe04cd33e0666dcce0dc43bc4cc04aa34d80.json |

The Argentine is still a little way off peak fitness, despite being brought from the bench to grab the winner on his debut against Fiorentina last weekend.
Despite claiming afterwards that he would be ready to start against the Aquile on Saturday if called upon, ‘El Pipita’ is to start on the bench once more as Mandzukic gets the chance to partner Paulo Dybala.
“There are still doubts over some players for the game,” Allegri told the media at Vinovo. “In midfield, I remain unsure over who will start between [Miralem] Pjanic and [Mario] Lemina.
“In attack, Mandzukic will start and Medhi Benatia will also play in defence. It is going to be a very difficult match for us because Lazio have some excellent counterattacking players.
“They are very skilled in this department and can hurt you on the break. They also haven’t changed much since last year and I think they will fight for the top six again. The players they have signed are very good, like [Ciro] Immobile, for example.”
Allegri, who revealed that Leonardo Bonucci will miss the match as will Simone Zaza and Luca Marrone as they close in on departures, also touched slightly on the Champions League draw, focusing on how tough their clashes against Sevilla will be.
“I don’t want to say too much about the draw because I want to concentrate on Lazio and we must do everything in that game to bring home the result but Sevilla are the only side who have won that trophy three times in a row in the past 40 years,” Allegri added.
“They are a very good team and we will need to understand and work hard on how to deal with them.” | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/juventus/allegri-faith-mandzukic-higuain-lazio/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/ede4268bf8af7aa80bf0cfb989e6e891dd7e9605d3cea0fa96e1f07374ce64c3.json |

The pair, who arrived from Lanus and Besiktas respectively, join Leonel Vangioni and Gianluca Lapadula as the only forays into the transfer market made by the Rossoneri since the end of the season.
With just a fortnight remaining until the transfer window slams shut, Milan’s business looks set to be complete until January at least. Funds have been difficult to amass, despite Silvio Berlusconi’s sale of the club to Chinese investors, and Vincenzo Montella is unlikely to be able to splash out on anyone of note to strengthen his squad.
Although Berlusconi promised a gift of €15m for Milan to use on transfers, half of this has already been used to bring in Sosa on a deal worth between €7m and €7.5m. Although the club still have the remainder of this total available, it is becoming all the more unlikely that it will be used.
It has been a summer of severe cost cutting and budgeting at the red half of the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, and this has been reflected in their dealings in the market. Lapadula and Gomez arrived for €9m and €8m respectively, whilst Vangioni came in on a free transfer.
An inability to raise funds through the offloading of assets such as Mattia De Sciglio and Carlos Bacca has further hampered the club, as they aim for a return to European football after last season’s disappointing seventh place finish. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/milan/uncertain-end-transfer-window/ | en | 2016-08-16T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/b1f06d81955d7bc984b168e18293298b722a2ef9ca74a912227229ad1104eabb.json |

The Basque side have played Italian opposition 17 times before and have eight wins, four draws and five defeats to their credit during that time.
Before Torino stunned them 3-2 at San Mames in the last 16 of the Europa League in 2014/15, Athletic had never been beaten by an Italian club at home: drawing once and winning seven times.
Genk face Sassuolo having encountered an Italian side just once before, when they lost 1-0 at home and drew 0-0 away against Roma in the 2002/03 Champions League group stage.
Currently lying in fifth place in the Belgian league after four games, they defeated Buducnost Podgorica, Cork City and Lokomotiv Zagreb to reach this stage of the competition.
The Neroverdi will be confident of overcoming Rapid Vienna though as in 19 previous games against Italian sides, they have managed to pick up just two wins and have lost their last five in succession.
Rapid currently lie third in their domestic league at present with 10 points after five matches so far this season. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/europa-league/sassuolo-glamorous-bow/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/9b80ac88a1743e1b11897259ce4d9dc3e2efd63ee57491febc83f2880b01df1b.json |

Although the club have yet to officially announce the deal, despite confirming on social media that both he and Joao Mario were set to sign, Wagner Ribeiro has revealed that everything has been signed.
“Gabigol signing with Inter,” he posted on Facebook, with an accompanying picture of his client holding a Nerazzurri jersey. “Thus ends the cycle.”
The Brazil international, who joins the club from Santos, arrived at Milan’s Malpensa Airport on Friday afternoon and dined out with club officials at the Hotel Bulgari’s restaurant in the centre of the city.
It was there that quick photographs were taken after dinner of the striker, whose real name is Gabriel Barbosa, smiling and posing for pictures with the club’s jersey.
An official announcement is expected from the club before Sunday evening’s clash with Palermo at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/gabigol-agent-inter-move/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/6a9800d78880a06831e3346b24378eaa9f6f69b65a597671b4ec6703d99ef1bf.json |

The Azzurri have brought in several new faces, with Gonzalo Higuain’s sale to Juventus for €90 million financing much of their spending.
While Arkadiusz Milik and Lorenzo Tonelli have strengthened the Partenopei’s attack and defence, much of the focus has been on adding depth to the midfield – an area that was seen as a particular weak point last season.
Piotr Zielinski, Amadou Diawara and Emanuele Giaccherini have already been brought in, and Rog – who only turned 21 in July – will provide coach Maurizio Sarri with another option.
Last season saw Marek Hamsik, Jorginho and Allan feature regularly due to a lack of alternatives, as David Lopez, Mirko Valdifiori and Nathaniel Chalobah all failed to leave their mark when called upon.
However the club’s work so far this summer has strengthened the team in the present, and the future, as Zielinski, Diawara and Rog are only 22, 19 and 21 respectively. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/transfer-market/napoli-summer-spending-rog/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/dd8a7d489dba61aa471551c45cb32be07fabfc6cc7706994b7864cf702cbc243.json |

Although the Bianconeri lost Paul Pogba in the summer, they haven’t missed the Frenchman one bit as Khedira, alongside Kwadwo Asamoah and Mario Lemina have been inspirational in Juve’s two wins so far this season.
Building on their exciting victory over Atalanta last weekend, the Biancocelesti did start very aggressively but Juventus continued their impressive form over their opponents, as Khedira’s 66th minute winner ensured Juve have victorious in their last five games against Lazio, and all without conceding.
The evening began with images and video displayed on the big screens at the Stadio Olimpico and a minute’s applause for the recent earthquake victims in Amatrice and the surrounding area. While Lazio also wore a special shirt which had ‘Us with you’ emblazoned on the front.
Building on their exciting win over Atalanta last weekend, the Biancocelesti started every aggressively and pressed Juventus high up the field.
Chances were few and far between in the opening period. Paulo Dybala went close with an improvised header, and at the other end a dangerous Felipe Anderson cross was hooked away.
There was a first in Serie A on 27 minutes when a cooling break was called as temperatures in Rome soared above 30 degrees celsius.
As the first half went on Juventus began to force their way into the match and Sami Khedira produced a brilliant touch in the box, following a ball over the top, but was denied by a Marco Parolo block.
Kwadwo Asamoah was next to try his luck, but a dipping volley from the edge of the area, was dealt with by Federico Marchetti.
Lazio started the second half the same as they did the first, very intense and not giving their Bianconeri counterparts time to settle on the ball.
However, Juventus should really have taken the lead when Mandzukic found himself one-on-one with Marchetti, but he shot straight at the Lazio goalkeeper.
Then, with the ball falling to Dybala, the Argentinian dragged his angled-shot inches wide of the upright.
Not long after, an excellent counter attack from Juve saw the ball eventually find its way to Khedira, by way of a back heel from Dybala, but the German sent the ball wide.
Minutes later Khedira broke the deadlock after latching onto a Dybala pass, and finishing low past Marchetti. Lazio midfielder Lucas Biglia should have done better as he tried to intercept the initial ball with an outstretched leg.
Patric went close for Lazio, smashing a volley just one the crossbar, before Buffon was tested by a stinging Parolo effort from 25 yards.
That was about as close as Simone Inzaghi’s men came to getting an equaliser, as Juventus’ defence was very rarely troubled.
After the international break, Juventus welcome Sassuolo to Turin, while Lazio face a trip to Chievo. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/serie-a/lazio-juventus-khedira/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/0e7285d859f3d009e8f3b6c8f8ee93cb00c7151920252ba210dffd567e2c9048.json |

Three concrete offers from different countries came the Colombian’s way but he is now focused only on life at the San Siro and delivering European football to the club once again.
Despite initially looking set to depart Milan this summer too, Bacca has also revealed all on what was a tumultuous summer for him personally.
In recent days, [Adriano] Galliani had warned that another onslaught from West Ham would come. What actually happened – did you not consider it?
“I think West Ham are a great club but I rejected the offer because I also have to think about my family too. I spoke to Galliani because I’m a clear and transparent person and told him that my intention was to stay here and he told me that the club believes I should stay. Honestly, I really like being told by the club that I’m important for them. So I say to the fans: ‘relax, the market [for me] is over.”
You have gone from a player who looked to be allowed to leave to unsellable now. The whole thing has changed a lot.
“At first I was on the market because the club was in trouble and I was one of the players they could sell to raise cash. With the money from my sale, different options would have been available so if I had to leave I could understand that. But now the feeling of being non-transferable is a beautiful one. It means that there is confidence in me and that feels good, as a person before a footballer even. If I’m important to Milan, I’m pleased to stay.”
What was it in particular that persuaded you to stay?
“I changed my mind due to my family. As well as England, I also had offers from Italy [Napoli] and France.”
How important was [Vincenzo] Montella in your decision to stay?
“He played his part. He told me clearly that he would be sorry to lose him. I strongly believe in him, he’s a leader and I have felt his trust. I know with the kind of game he plays, we’ll all be fine and I’m willing to fight and work hard for him as always.”
However, you weren’t called up for the US tour so things mustn’t all have been good…
“He told me to train at Milanello as it would be better for me training at home than in America. I stayed in Milan and worked hard so there is no problem. Montella has always been very clear with me.”
Do you like the trident with Suso and [M’Baye] Niang?
“Very much so. I’m happy for Niang because we suffered in his absence. [Luiz] Adriano is also a great player but unfortunately finds himself out of the XI.”
If Bacca keeps improving, how far can Milan go?

Top seeds Inter were handed an assignment of Sparta Prague, Premier League outfit Southampton and Hapoel Beer-Sheva, while Fiorentina will face Greek side PAOK, Slovan Liberec and Qarabag.
Despite not being placed in pot one, Roma will be happy with their draw as they face Czech champions Viktoria Plzen as well as trips to Austria Vienna and Astra Giurgiu.
In their first tilt at the Europa League, Sassuolo have been handed a difficult group but if their qualification form is anything to go by, they will be confident of overcoming Athletic Club, Genk and Rapid Vienna.

PAOK are the only side who the Viola have played previously, when they won 1-0 in Greece in 2014/15 and drew 1-1 at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
The Greek outfit have faced Serie A opposition on 12 previous occasions and have won just once, when they defeated Udinese in 2000, drawing four others and losing seven times.
Having been eliminated in the third Champions League qualifying round by Ajax, the Thessaloniki group entered the Europa League playoff round and overcame Dinamo Tbilisi there.
Slovan Liberec on the other hand are fresh faces for the Florence club and have played Italian sides just four times previously, their first experience coming in 2002 when they faced AC Milan in the Champions League.
Despite winning one and losing one of their preliminary ties, they crashed out on aggregate but made up for that in 2013/14 when they beat Udinese in Italy and drew at home to eliminate the Zebrette from the Europa League.
Expect goals from the Gigliati against the Czechs, who have conceded at least once in each game they have played against a Serie A side.
Fiorentina have also lost just once against a side from the Czech Republic, in their first game against Brno in 1965 and since then they have picked up four wins and two draws.
Azerbaijan’s Qarabag are the final team to make up the group and although they haven’t faced the Tuscan club before, they did play Inter in the 2014/15 Europa League, losing 2-0 in Milan before drawing 0-0 at home.
They overcame Gothenburg in the playoff round to reach the group phase and have won the league title in each of the past three seasons. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/europa-league/fiorentina-unfamiliar-foes/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/a78909bf95fbb902d1d39364befd93cdc8f94362ac2706e24a0e0525224f8693.json |

As well as voicing their sympathy via social media, many clubs are being pro-active in their efforts to raise funds and basic necessities for those involved in the tragedy, with the death toll now passing 250.
In Serie A, champions Juventus will hold a collection on Sunday at the stadium and the Juventus Museum, while the Agnelli Foundation has already donated €150,000.
Coach Massimiliano Allegri is raffling a dinner with him and two seats in his private box at the Juventus Stadium, with the highest bidder’s offer going straight to those affected.
Sami Khedira has already handed over €20,000 and will auction his jersey from tomorrow’s game against Lazio, while Suning Group President Zhang Jindong has announced that Inter will pledge €200,000 to the cause.
Palermo will donate a portion of their gate receipts from their next home game, while Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis has confirmed that he will hand over 50 percent of the proceeds from Saturday’s clash against AC Milan at the Stadio San Paolo.
The people of Amartice and Accomuli will also receive half of the gate money from the next Sampdoria-Genoa derby clash, according to Blucerchiati supremo Massimo Ferrero as they aim to bring relief to one of the areas hit hardest.
All of the proceeds from Roma’s friendly against Pope Francis’ boyhood club San Lorenzo, which takes place on September 3, will be made available to earthquake victims, through a series of initiatives organised by Roma Cares.
“The feeling of pain and bewilderment in the face of such tragedy pushed me to reflect on whether the game should take place,” said President James Pallotta. “We have decided to use the evening to make a firm contribution to the people involved in the tragedy in central Italy.”
In Serie B, 10 percent of ticket sales from the first two weekends of the season will be donated to victims, while Hellas Verona will donate €1 for every one person present at the Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.
Even fans have been moved to make an effort to assist in any way they can, with Ascoli Ultras helping to move rubble and lending a hand in efforts to dig up the area, while Ultras in Lazio’s Curva Nord held a collection in Piazza Epiro on Thursday night.
Genoa’s Ultras della Gradinata Nord performed a similar collection in via Armenia, although they specified that people donate ‘water, long-lasting food products, hygiene products for adults and children, cutlery, plastic glasses and non-prescription medicine.’
Although Roma Ultras will not attend their friendly clash against San Lorenzo, they confirmed via a statement that they will be performing a collection similar to the Genoa Ultras outside the Stadio Olimpico before that clash. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/news/italian-clubs-earthquake-solidarity/ | en | 2016-08-26T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/e14266e22786b784213ad60c3df86f6be8906753ccf51fffbcb8d600e302ddb1.json |

Mertens will look to recreate that magic alongside Milik and Jose Callejon on Saturday, while Mirko Valdifiori is dropped in favour of Jorginho in midfield.
On the other side Carlos Bacca leads Milan’s attack after scoring a hat-trick against Torino, with Suso and M’Baye Niang starting alongside him.
Gustavo Gomez makes his Serie A debut in place of Gabriel Paletta, who was sent off last weekend.

There was the birth of a Rossoneri striker who continues to delight, meanwhile their rivals’ bid to win every trophy possible took a big hit. Also, there was the debut of Javier Zanetti – but whatever happened to him?
1938 – Italian-Brazilian striker Jose Altafini, who is most remembered for his trophy-laden time at AC Milan in the 1950s and 1960s, was born in Piracicaba. At the Rossoneri he won a coveted European Cup, as well as two Serie A titles. He also won trophies at Juventus and Napoli during his travels, also winning the World Cup with Brazil, and after retiring became known again for coining the commentary exclamation of ‘golasso!’.
1995 – A sprightly young relatively unknown 22-year-old by the name of Javier Zanetti made his debut for Inter against Vicenza. Four years later, he would be handed the captaincy at the San Siro. Fast forward to his retirement after 19 years at the club, and he’s their all-time top appearance maker and won an incredible 16 trophies in a Nerazzurri shirt – including the Champions League in 2010.
1995 – Juventus and Lazio rose to become joint Serie A leaders on the opening day of the new season, with both sides claiming a 4-1 victory in their first game. Fabrizio Ravanelli was the star for the Bianconeri as they brushed aside Cremonese, whilst Massimiliano Esposito grabbed a brace for the capital club against Piacenza.
2010 – Inter lost out on the chance to claim yet another trophy in a year of glory – losing 2-0 to Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Super Cup final. It was the first ever meeting between the pair in European competition, and Jose Antonio Reyes and Sergio Aguero’s goals were enough to give the Spaniards a 1-0 overall record against the Nerazzurri. | http://www.gazzettaworld.com/features/day-august-27/ | en | 2016-08-27T00:00:00 | www.gazzettaworld.com/c2dbd53e6743a42813674daf72903f0fec002c4ebb57a6b5e0324a61303a6620.json |
