Luis Alberto-Lazio, does Serie A win over the Spaniard? Latest
The announcement on TV wasn’t enough, even the social confirmation: «I am grateful for the demonstrations of affection, my relationship with the fans of Lazio it’s excellent and it’s just a source of pride, I will always have them in my heart for these years. In the meantime, I will continue to work hard and give my all on the pitch until the last minute of the last match.”
A message that tastes even more like farewell from Luis Alberto, as reported Il Messenger. For the best assistman in the history of Lazio (on Friday it reached 72) the Capitoline parenthesis now seems to be over after yet another twist, but it is still a film already seen for the Biancoceleste club, which often finds itself faced with Luis’s desire for a change of scenery. The last time was in November 2022, when under Sarri he was now a reserve. During the break for the World Cup, however, he decided to stay and as the weeks went by he became such a firm point that the following summer he tore the renewal for 4 million plus bonuses until 2027 with an option until 2028.

A negotiation that was not at all simple and which in the end even saw Lotito being convinced, a rarity. This is why yesterday the patron was annoyed by yet another outburst from the Spaniard: “He probably wants to go away for free, but he doesn’t. He has four more years here, has requested a renewal and is the second highest paid player. The contract is signed with him he asks for more and then doesn’t show up for pickup as you all remember. And now she comes out with this all of a sudden without saying anything. If he wants to leave he has to find a team that will buy him. We are a company listed on the stock exchange and letting him go on a free transfer would mean depleting the assets“.
The Wizard couldn’t even cast the spell Fabiani: “I get angry whenever you want
passing a message of pandering towards the fans for one’s own interests is not good”.
Yet for the sporting director Luis Alberto’s words were not a bolt from the blue: “With the advent of Tudor he told me that at the end of the year he would prefer to change team and I replied that first we had the duty to finish the season in the best possible way. However, no one has ever promised to terminate the contract, which among other things he recently renewed“. It’s still: “Thanks to my intermediation, Lotito accepted the conditions of the entourage. Now, six months later, has everything changed? He will have to explain to me. We are for peace, but we will not accept compromises, but I would use a phrase that is not mine to explain the story: “Every now and then the king’s groom must be allowed a few tantrums”.
The Spaniard had already been pardoned in August after the mutiny, one of the first shocks for the dressing room. In that case, however, he disrespected everyone, while this time he only expressed his intention to leave at the end of the season, which was also confirmed yesterday in a conversation with Fabiani. In the end, therefore, the number 10 will not be punished, but in the summer he will have to bring in a buyer, which is not an easy task considering the onerous contract and the 32 years he is about to reach. There is no shortage of admirers. From Saudi Arabia to La Liga, with Sevilla and Cadiz following him for some time, passing through Serie A with Napoli always vigilant and Inzaghi who would gladly take him to Inter, but only on a free basis. This time Luis Alberto will really need magic.
Milan transfer market, Ibrahimovic Deus ex Machina of the Rossoneri club: the situation
Today’s Milan already sees the future: Pioli does not give up on Leao and carries out technical tests in view of Roma and Inter, because the fate of the new Rossoneri technical project depends on Roma and Inter.
As reported by Gazzetta dello Sportit all starts from the afternoon in Reggio Emilia: two years ago it marked the arrival at the top of the Serie A table, this time it is a stop to catch your breath and then start the climb again. Milan will have an exceptional leader, Ibrahimovic. And a team that will be equipped with a Champions market: the money guaranteed by the next participation in the champions’ tournament will constitute a percentage of the budget to be spent on the signing campaign. Other shares will come from loan redemptions, from possible sales, from the possibility of continuing the journey in the Europa League. Coach and market. Word to Zlatan: he decides on the pitch.
During his last trip to Milan, Gerry Cardinale spent the day with his traveling companions chosen for the next Rossoneri course. On Thursday morning he visited the team with the CEO. Furlani entered the San Siro in the evening arm in arm with Ibra: Zlatan was in a dark suit, increasingly immersed in his new managerial role.
Not just any role: Ibra will be at the center of the new technical project and all sporting decisions will fall within his orbit. He will decide on the coach, team, market, Under 23, and will make use of the collaboration of men he trusts, Kirovski above all. Once upon a time, it was Pioli who decided for Zlatan, that is, whether to field him or not; now Zlatan will have the last word on Pioli, that is, whether to confirm him at the helm of the Milan o meno.
Obviously the results will be decisive for the coach first: the second leg of the Europa League quarter-finals on Thursday in Rome and the home derby next Monday. After the first act of the American cup derby Cardinale (like the rest of the men of the club) was surprised and saddened. The judgment on the Europa League will be positive even without final success (as for the championship) only if the winner is an opponent recognized by all as stronger: essentially Liverpool or Leverkusen.
Roma, at -13 from Milan in the championship, is considered weaker and the minus sign, i.e. negative, would appear on the evaluation of the team’s European path if the road were to be definitively blocked at the Olimpico. In the championship the rating has the + sign in front for the guarantee of the place in the Champions League but witnessing Inter’s double triumph at San Siro (today they would win the scudetto only with the three points over Milan) would be too deep a wound.
Inter transfer market, Dumfries says goodbye in June: the details
The future of Denzel Dumfries could be sensationally distant from Inter as early as the next summer transfer window, with the Beloved having already identified a possible replacement in the Premier League. That’s who it is.
According to what we read today in the Spanish media, the future of Dumfries could be away from Inter starting from the next summer transfer window. The discussions for the renewal of the Dutch winger would not have led to the desired results, and the poor use of the last period by coach Simone Inzaghi would have convinced the parties to look for an alternative solution at the end of the season.
Will Dumfries say goodbye to Inter in the summer?
If offers were to arrive in line with his value, currently estimated at around 25 million euros by Transfermarkt, Inter could consider the idea of separating from Dumfries, to aim for an attractive profile in the Premier League. It would be Aaron Wan Bissaka, Manchester United winger who would like a change of scenery in the summer.
Having been at the top of English football for a few years, Wan Bissaka has earned an important status in the Premier League despite Manchester United’s many problems in recent years. However, the club’s difficulties and the incompatibility with Erik Ten Hag would have pushed the 26-year-old to evaluate a possible transfer in the coming months, so as to maintain the standards of his career high.
