Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt is rethinking his decision to stay at the summer beyond this season, according to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mundodeportivo.com/futbol/fc-barcelona/20200426/48715099560/de-ligt-a-la-expectativa-ante-los-contactos-barca-juve.html" target="_blank">Mundo Deportivo</a>.&nbsp; The former Ajax man has attracted interest from Manchester United and Barcelona, despite struggling through a disappointing debut campaign so far in Serie A.

Lazio&nbsp;ace Ciro Immobile still looks back on his&nbsp;Sevilla&nbsp;spell with a certain frustration, and lays the blame at Unai Emery's door for failing to shine in&nbsp;Spain.&nbsp; Immobile landed in Seville at the start of the 2015-16 season after a year in&nbsp;Germany&nbsp;with&nbsp;Borussia Dortmund. The&nbsp;Italy&nbsp;international failed to fire in&nbsp;La Liga, however, making just 15 appearances and scoring four goals before moving out on loan to&nbsp;Torino&nbsp;halfway through his maiden campaign.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/he-didnt-understand-anything-immobile-still-angry-at-emery/1a36h5bafkeju1g8jcpoejdhk6" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Juventus&nbsp;are making plans for the 2020-21 season, specifically looking at the heart of their midfield, where there could be both new signings and old faces let go. Their idea is to make a few signings but ensure that they are of the highest quality - and it is the midfield that will be the recipient of the bulk of these, with the belief being that this is the area in which they have been lacking this season. Paul Pogba remains their main target for the summer, but they are also eyeing Chelsea midfielder Jorginho and Brescia's&nbsp;Sandro Tonali. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/jorginho-tonali-pogba-pjanic-how-juventus-2020-21-midfield/v6b9o2a552zn1o8cavlo7f6ut" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>
