Fenerbahce captain Milan Skriniar issued a firm wake-up call to his team-mates following a 2-1 derby defeat against Besiktas. Despite opening the scoring at the Chobani Stadium, Skriniar admitted Fenerbahce left too much space open defensively and must improve before facing Roma in the Champions League.
A fiery Derby d'Italia reunion between former Serie A rivals Dusan Vlahovic and Milan Skriniar headlined Besiktas's dramatic 2-1 victory over Fenerbahce. The former Juventus and Inter Milan adversaries clashed in Kadikoy before Vlahovic struck the winning goal for the visitors.
Juventus find themselves in a defensive crisis, akin to the one they experienced last season, which has forced them to look in the transfer market for suitable reinforcements. According to reports from Italy, the Bianconeri are looking for defenders with previous experience in the Serie A. Milan Skriniar, formerly of Inter, and Kim Min-jae, who was crucial in Napoli's title-winning success in 2022-23, are reportedly on the radar.
