Kvaratskhelia refused a large enough offer which showed that he wanted to be a fairly loyal player even though if you see the opportunity it is clear that PSG is much more providing resources and greater opportunities but he still wants to stay at Napoli which is quite good news for Napoli actually.

Rumors of Kvaratskhelia, who has indeed become PSG's dream since Mbappe left, are indeed quite sticky, it's just that it seems that Kvaratskhelia does not want to be lulled by a big offer.
This could be a good situation for Conte in particular because after all Kvaratskhelia's role is clearly still very much needed to restore Napoli's situation which is currently not going well and with him surviving of course this will make it easier for Conte to organize the scheme so that next season matches what he expects.

It remains to wait whether PSG is now shifting its focus to Osimhen or not because if you look at the previous season the rumors of Osimhen and PSG are also quite strong although for this season it has subsided a little.

If PSG fails to bring in Khvicha Kvaratskhelia then that means Napoli should have agreed on a new contract and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's future. Conte will of course make Khvicha Kvaratskhelia the most needed player in his plans next season, so a safe position for Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is guaranteed.

You may be right, rumors about PSG's interest in Osimhen are still ongoing. Osimhen is expected to be a suitable replacement for Mbappe who left for Real Madrid on a free transfer, but we don't know for sure how things will develop. A move to PSG would be a good option for Osimhen rather than just staying at Napoli, but Conte will probably hope Osimhen stays.

Last week Lazio announced the departure of their coach, Igor Tudor, and it didn't take long for Lazio to find a new coach and they will soon announce Marco Baroni as the new coach. Maybe the bad results that Lazio got this season made Igor Tudor feel guilty and he was willing to resign without being fired.

On the other hand, Marco Baroni is certainly very happy to have the opportunity to coach Lazio and at least this is an upgrade to his career as a coach. If we look at Verona, who finished in 13th place in the standings, Marco Baroni is certainly not the ideal coach for Lazio, but it seems like management has its own view of signing him until 2026. Hopefully Lazio's journey next season will go well and there will be no other obstacles.

I have to say, Igor Tudor did not look all that bad to me at all, they are over reacting to all of this and I think it wasn't really that bad, they were doing quite well. In the end, what can Lazio do? I do not expect them to win the league, so why were they not happy with what Tudor did? On top of that, let's assume that Igor Tudor did terrible and they are right to fire him, even in that situation, hiring Marco Baroni means that they do not want any manager at all and they just want to have a puppet that they can control nothing more, he is basically a nobody.

I believe that Lazio will do quite terrible this season as well, not going to be all that complicated, because they did not hire any manager that would be very good for them.

Napoli is my favorite team in the serie A but there are losing their number striker osimien so what will be their fate now ? Because it seems the club is going to be in problem.

Osimhen is still not going anywhere at the moment because although there are some rumors that are indeed now crowded that he will leave but as long as there is no confirmation then he remains at Napoli and until now there is still no club that really gives a decent offer for Osimhen to leave Napoli.
There were some rumors that Arsenal were preparing to bring Osimhen but that was immediately rejected because Arsenal considered Osimhen's price too expensive for them to the Emirates Stadium.

What is possible is that now PSG is always busy being linked with Osimhen and reportedly at this time PSG and Napoli officials have met to discuss the continuation of Osimhen's transfer.

Most likely he leaves if this happens but before there is further confirmation from PSG and Napoli then until now Osimhen is still in Napoli uniform even though we must be aware that the possibility of him staying in Naples is very slim.

Como is very ambitious this season and they have strong desired want to survive in Serie A and previously i was said Como only will bought one or two players this season because they were confident with their current squad but clearly i was wrong because Cesc Fabregas says Serie A is more competitive compared to Serie B so the current players still not enough to make Como to survive in Serie A so that's why Como will bought more players to build solid squad and besides Sanchez Como buy lists is Mauro Icardi, Joaquin Correa, Andrea Pinamonti, Andrea Belotti, Alessio Cragno, Stefano Sensi, and Daniel Boloca

Let see it later whether Como is really can able to buy those players or not but if they really can do that i think Como squad next season will be very promising and i found one interesting name on Como buy list and he is Mauro Icardi and currently he playing at Galatasaray and his performance is quite consistent with that team and if Icardi is really moved to Como i think that would be fantastic because Icardi potentially can scores a lot of goals with Como however we all know Como owner is wealthy businessman and i think it's not hard for them to spend huge money to buy players

If the target is these players,then it seems that Como has a plan to improve the quality of the team and its performance quickly. Because after all, these players are considered at least not young because they are also more worthy of being said to be senior players. But yes, it is interesting of course whether Fabregas will succeed in making Como to stay in Serie A and not berelegated at the end of the season later. But indeed, because Fabregas was a midfield player when he was a player in the past, then I thinkFabregas will be able toprovide good results, atleast making Como able to competestrongly in the middle of the standings is also a good result for them later.

Como experience will be very important for Cesc Fabregas. They set important targets this year, especially it was very important for them to aim for the middle ranks in the league, but I think even not being relegated from the league in the first season in this difficult league can be considered successful. They are targeting important players and if they transfer them, they can be one of the flash teams in Serie A. Como may be one of this year's surprises.

Napoli is my favorite team in the serie A but there are losing their number striker osimien so what will be their fate now ? Because it seems the club is going to be in problem.

Antonio Conte is currently the headcoach of Napoli and we should expect good targets from the new coach. Napoli have always been in jeopardy since the absence of one experience coach, Luciano Spalleti. The club crumbled and struggle to win league matches, there as winning the scudetto becomes more challenging form, they ended in a compromise position this season, sending news to the fans that everything is not working well on their end. Perhaps next season is another opportunity for them to strive again and I hope this time they do deliver.

Not Roberto De Zerbi, not Lionel Scaloni, not Thomas Tuchel, not Sergio Conceicao and not Xavi Hernandez. I think we already have the answers to all questions about the next AC Milan manager, he's Paulo Fonseca. It looks like everything has been prepared, all that remains is to be officially introduced in the city of Milan, based on Football Italia, it's possible that Fonseca will be introduced to the public in the next few days.

AC Milan is one of the big teams that almost won in the Serie A League last season. Meanwhile, Paulo Fonseca is a coach who has never led the team he coached to victory in the Serie A League. Paulo Fonseca also coached AS Roma in the 2019/20 season and finished in the top five of the standings. I hope AC Milan has considered it carefully when choosing Pauol Fonseca to be the coach of a team as big as AC Milan so as not to cause disappointment in the end.

AC Milan decision to appoint Paulo Fonseca as their coach is surprising one. While Fonseca has shown promise with his previous work at AS Roma his lack of experience in leading team to victory in Serie A is a concern. AC Milan is massive club with high expectations and Fonseca inability to deliver title in his previous roles raises questions about his ability to handle pressure. I hope AC Milan has thoroughly considered Fonseca credentials and has clear plan in place to support him otherwise risk of disappointment is high. Fans and the club deserve better and it's crucial that Fonseca proves himself worthy of this opportunity.

For Milan, in-depth research was required for coaching. Time will tell us whether Milan will achieve their goals when they appoint Fonseca as head of the team, but I think Fonseca is a bit of a low-profile coach for Milan. I hope it will be a season full of championship claims for Milan. The rivalry with Inter is very important. Juventus will also be in the race next year. It will be a hot season, on the way to the championship.

There is nothing exceptional about Fonsesca. He was a flop when he left Ukraine. His prime is only when he coached shakhtar. Fonsesca's great successes are all about Shakhtar Donetsk. There's little doubt that Milan fans are doubting Fonsesca right now. Pioli did not deserve to be fired by the club. Sign fonsesca as a new appointment is how acmilan is showing how panic the club is right now

Pioli helped Acmilan finish second place and secure a UCL spot for the future season. Acmilan will lose some of its current competitiveness. I believe Fonsesca is a failed coach hired by Arsenal.
Fonsesca was nothing when he left Shakhtar Donetsk. Acmilan has demonstrated if Fonsesca is a panic signing by acmilan. I doubt Acmilan will finish even in fifth place this season.

Acmilan's owner should allow Pioli to stay longer in the club. We can see how many players were injured last season in Acmilan.

Did anyone realize that the competition in Serie A has not been up to the mark?

By that, I mean almost all of the teams in this league have just not been good enough in the Champions League competition. The last time any Italian team was able to win the Champions League competition was back in the 2009-10 season if I recall correctly. And it was Inter who won the Champions League.

After that, I do not remember any team from the Italian league actually winning the Champions League title. Are the teams in the Serie A has just become that bad? I know recently a lot of Italian teams have been facing some legal problems with their players, their coaches, and even their owners. Are these the reasons why they have not been able to do well in the Champions League competition? That is definitely a factor if you ask me. It also does not seem like any team from the Italian league will probably win the Champions League competition anytime soon.

I think, AC Milan Still have potential players that are ready to do more in the next season if the opportunity will be giving to them again which I know the opportunity will be giving to them, because their management are still searching for a potential manager that will lead the team to victory next season. In football competition anything can happen, if the management see the potential in the Paulo Fonseca to become the manager of AC Milan, I think he can break some record to use AC Milan as the first team he lead to victory in the Italian league competition. Based on what I observed from the decision of the AC Milan management, I don't think Paulo Fonseca will going to disappoint the team because the players will going to support the manager and work with him to ensure they achieve the title next season.

I hope it will be a season full of championship claims for Milan. The rivalry with Inter is very important. Juventus will also be in the race next year. It will be a hot season, on the way to the championship.

Every club that has appointed a coach must have done research beforehand. They are not careless in appointing a coach, but rather the management has seen the coach's ability to build the club.
Paulo Fonseca may not be a potential coach and has experience in coaching big clubs because in his coaching career he has never coached a big club so this is the first time for him to coach a big club like Milan which is a big club in the Italian League so this is a challenge for Paulo Fonseca to show his abilities in building the club, whether he can improve Milan's performance next season because this club wants the league title.

Paulo Fonseca was quite good at coaching the Lille club in League 1 and finished in the top 4, but comparing League 1 and the Italian League is of course very different because they are at different levels but hopefully Paulo Fonseca can show his best ability in coaching this big club. The Milan club is filled with quality and talented players, so the coach only needs to hone the skills of his players and buy the players he needs to match the abilities expected by the coach. It is clear that management must trust the coach because an experienced coach may not necessarily be able to provide a championship, we can see example of Xabi Alonso at Leverkusen

Previously it was reported that there was great coach like Antonio Conte who would become AC Milan coach but for some reason now there is lot of discussion regarding AC Milan decision to choose Paulo Fonseca as head coach for next season, maybe this will be new start for AC Milan in the competition for title.
It is true that Paulo Fonseca is quite an experienced coach, but that does not guarantee that he will bring success to AC Milan considering that Paulo Fonseca track record during his career as coach is also nothing special at all.
But hopefully this is not the wrong decision and Paulo Fonseca can work well as expected by AC Milan officials after deciding to bring him in.
Serie A will be full of quite fierce competition next season, several teams have prepared their performance as well as possible and Paulo Fonseca really has to face big challenges as the head coach who leads AC Milan.

'Made us grow' - Leandro Paredes aims subtle dig at Jose Mourinho as Roma midfielder claims Daniele De Rossi's style 'suits the team better' ahead of Europa League semi-final clash with Bayer Leverkusen
Leandro Paredes says Daniele De Rossi has made Roma "grow" as his "style suits the team better", in a subtle dig at Jose Mourinho.

Guys, any opinion about the performance of Roma?

I clearly do not see any improvement in their performance. but maybe I am just speaking a little too early. Maybe there is a chance that they will be able to bring in better results in the next season. it has not been even a whole season that they have brought in Daniele De Rossi. maybe with time, De Rossi will be able to improve the results. But at this moment I highly doubt that. 

You know, De Rossi is going to need a lot of money to actually bring in good results and compete for the title. at this moment I do not see a huge stream of money coming into the Roma club. do I think that it was a very big mistake that they have actually fired Jose Mourinho? probably not a very big mistake.  but at the same time do I think that they should have gotten a better coach? yes absolutely.  unless they actually finish in the top four positions in the next season I am not going to call another European League position finish "an improvement".

The last time italian club won UCL was more than a decade ago.

Wiki

La Liga owns the majority of the UCL trophy because Real Madrid has consistently won it. Real madrid is owning 15 tropohies alone combined with barcelona. It would be different if Madrid were not in La Liga. Madrid has carried la liga to win so many UCL titles. Serie A was not a horrible team, especially since they may still advance to the UCL final. The only main problem if any serie a clubs were qualifying to the final was not able making a proper finishing. It has made club bottled the trophy

The main problem is that they lack a winning mentality. You can see from how intermilan has bottled it last seasons. It can be seen from how Intermilan failed in the 2022/2023 final versus Manchester City. They presently hold 5 UCL places now. It enhances the likelihood that Italian teams will remain in the UCL for an extended period but it must be noted that if it doesn't guarantee italian club to have greater chance in winning UCL.  King is back now. Real madrid is ready to break its 3 times UCL winners in a row.

Let's always remember that Italy has always been well present in the Champions League, now we have the overwhelming power of the Spanish in recent years, but let's also remember that when Real Madrid were Galacticos there were teams like Milan, Juve and Inter who have always been imposed on these great teams and they have sometimes achieved great results, so we can expect anything and the great teams do not always manage to win what they set their minds to winning, football is beautiful for this reason

Is this true? I can't understand why Milan is in such a hurry to choose a new coach and if it is true that Paulo Fonseca is the coach then this is a decline for Milan. I am not underestimating Paulo Fonseca but of course Milan should be able to target a more experienced coach considering that the competition in Serie A has always been fierce lately.

On the other hand, if there is no coach who can be equal to Simone Inzaghi then it is certain that Inter will win the Scudetto again. There is nothing we can expect from Milan and perhaps with a fairly good squad depth, it is also difficult for the players' potential to be further improved.

For this reason, I will not hesitate to say that Roma has indeed developed quite well under De Rossi's coaching. Even though De Rossi has only been in charge of Roma since the middle of last season. but the results were enough to make all of us who watched want to express our appreciation to De Rossi. But De Rossi was able to make Roma improve not only because of his own results. But because the Roma squad has been built well by Mourinho. So Mourinho's contribution is still there in the good results shown by De Rossi as Roma coach. And the real challenge for De Rossi is next season and in the current player transfer market. Because remember next season Lukaku might not even be there anymore because his loan period has expired. and yeah, De Rossi has to rebuild the squad as best as possible. And yes, limited transfer funds can be an obstacle in this case. But I feel that Roma have made a good decision in bringing in De Rossi.

After watching Inter this season I think the other teams will really need to make a huge progress this summer.    Because the gap is just enormous now. Maybe you will say Napoli were also like this in the prior season and failed later on. However Spalletti left the team which caused big problems to start for Napoli right after.

There isn't such thing for Inter. They are moving on with Simone Inzaghi. I believe they have the best squad in the league at the same time. In this situation it wouldn't be seeing them winning a back-to-back title unless we see some reaction from another team.

Inter Milan are very to have a good coach like Simone Inzaghi, he stands up for the team and makes sure he brings out the good performances from the players, inter Milan won the league title without any stress because they are leading the remaining teams with a lot of points that no any other team can compete with them, and with the way inter Milan performance stands now they are capable of winning the league title next season, inter Milan is very happy with their players and the coach performance and they don’t want to lose any of them that is why they want them to sign a new contract for another year so that the future of the team will be very good and end well.

And about Napoli, since Napoli let Spalleti leave the club and sign a new coach I have been saying that it will be very difficult for Napoli to end the season with a good result, they didn’t even end up in playing the Champions League, Europa League or Europa conference league next season, this show that Spalleti is the best coach that can handle Napoli but the team doesn’t think before letting him go, it will be very difficult for Napoli to bounce back with their normal performance and with the way Napoli looks some players will also leave the team.
