While some Serie A clubs are eyeing Lionel Messi longingly, their mantra as they prepare for the transfer window is 'financial prudence'.
Serie A clubs and fans would love to rekindle the rivalry between Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, but the Argentine's price tag might be too high. ROME: While some Serie A clubs are eyeing Lionel Messi longingly, their mantra as they prepare for the transfer window is"financial prudence".
Italian clubs value experience and, at 35, Ronaldo, one of the few stars to arrive from abroad for a big fee in recent seasons, will remain the headliner at Juventus. Yet, proving that experience still counts for the Bianconeri, 34-year-old Roma centre-forward Edin Dzeko has reportedly been targeted to replace Higuain., at almost 39, who has signed for another season with AC Milan.
The highly sought-after and talented 20-year-old Sandro Tonali of Brescia could be part of Milan's rebuilding. Conte coached Vidal at Juventus and Kante at Chelsea. Inter have already added speedy 21-year-old Morocco international right-back Achraf Hakimi from Dortmund.Lazio on Monday extended the contract of last season's Serie A top scorer Ciro Immobile, who is 30, until 2025.
