Vesper 31,181 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Inter Milan 'very hopeful of signing Romelu Lukaku' https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/man-utd/transfer-talk/news/inter-very-hopeful-of-signing-lukaku_367026.html Inter Milan boss Antonio Conte has revealed that he is "very hopeful" of bringing Manchester United forward Romelu Lukaku to the club in this summer's transfer window. The Italian giants have been strongly linked with a move for Lukaku over the last few weeks. However, it had been thought that Juventus had moved to the head of the queue with the Serie A champions reportedly agreeing a swap deal involving Paulo Dybala. United are believed to have pulled the plug on a move for Dybala, though, leaving Juve's hopes of signing Lukaku in severe doubt. Conte has now provided an update on Inter's pursuit of the unsettled striker, claiming that he is "very hopeful" of being able to sign the 26-year-old. "We continue to work on it in the best possible way. I understand there are some gaps that need to be filled but at the moment I am very hopeful that this will happen," Conte told reporters. "At the same time, I'm working with a great group of players that gives me lots of satisfaction." Inter are believed to be preparing a new £65m bid for Lukaku in the hope of convincing United to sell in the latter stages of the English transfer window. snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 31,181 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 AC Milan sign Ismael Bennacer from Empoli Afcon 2019 Player of the Tournament https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49225798 AC Milan have signed Algeria midfielder Ismael Bennacer from fellow Italian club Empoli for a reported £14.5m. The 21-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the Serie A side. Bennacer has joined on the back of helping Algeria win the Africa Cup of Nations during the summer, where he was named player of the tournament. He had a spell at Arsenal from from 2015 to 2017 before joining Empoli and the Gunners reportedly decided not to take up an option to re-sign him. Bennacer only made one appearance for Arsenal and that outing came as a substitute in a League Cup game. He initially represented France at Under-18 and Under-19 level before opting to play for Algeria from 2016. snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Journalist Fabrizio Romano tweeted Sunday that City would pay €30 million (£27.4 million) in addition to Danilo in order to sign Cancelo: Juve are mad getting rid of Cancelo for cash and Danilo. Danilo was decent at Porto but hasnt kicked on since where as Cancelo, for me, is one of the best offensive full backs in Europe. Every time he gets in the final third he has a real desire to contribute in a positive way. Why Juve and Sarri would even consider selling him for only 30m and Danilo is incrediblely stupid.
