One of Italy's greatest modern goalscorers has officially called time on his playing days. Ciro Immobile, the legendary forward who dominated Serie A scoring charts for over a decade, has announced his retirement from professional football. The news marks the end of a prolific era for both Italian football and the various clubs he represented across Europe.
Como have reportedly turned their attention to Chelsea striker Liam Delap after negotiations for Moise Kean hit a roadblock. The ambitious Italian club are actively searching for attacking reinforcements to strengthen their squad ahead of the new campaign.
For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.
Christopher Nkunku has surprisingly been informed he can leave AC Milan after head coach Ruben Amorim deemed the French attacker surplus to requirements. Roma are now actively monitoring the player's uncertain situation and could propose a sensational swap deal involving their talented Argentine playmaker Matias Soule.
Boca Juniors captain Leandro Paredes has firmly rejected an approach from Italian heavyweights AC Milan during the open European transfer window. The 32-year-old World Cup winner immediately shut down any prospect of a return to Serie A, making it clear to the Rossoneri that his focus remains entirely on delivering silverware in Buenos Aires.
Scott McTominay has starred for Napoli since leaving Manchester United for Serie A in 2024 and former Scotland international Colin Hendry has, during an exclusive interview with GOAL, tipped “somebody in England” to try and take the all-action midfielder back to the Premier League. Such a deal may not happen any time soon as a new contract in Italy is being mooted.
