Serie A news

How to watch the Serie A match between Genoa and SSC Napoli, as well as kick-off time and team news.

Ruud Gullit has urged Joshua Zirkzee to end his Manchester United nightmare and return to Italy to salvage his career. The Dutch legend believes the forward made a massive error by moving to Old Trafford during a period of "bad energy" at the club. Amidst rumours of a summer move to Roma, Gullit insists that Serie A is the only league where the 24-year-old can truly thrive once again.

Christian Fuchs, a member of Leicester’s Premier League title-winning squad from 2015-16, has revealed that he tried to talk Foxes legend Jamie Vardy into joining him in the fourth tier of English football. Fuchs is currently calling the shots at Newport County, having stepped into management, and asked questions of whether Vardy was up for another battle against the odds.

Honest Ahanor is just 17 years old - and yet on Sunday he started his fifth successive game for Atalanta, against Como. Unfortunately, Ahanor's afternoon came to an abrupt end - and quite literally by his own hand. Just eight minutes into the game at Sinigaglia, the defender was involved in an innocuous, off-the-ball clash with Maxi Perrone, who shamelessly collapsed to the ground as if Ahanor had struck him in the face.

U.S. men’s national team Weston McKennie’s standout January earned him Juventus’ Player of the Month award after scoring three goals in seven appearances. While his influence on the pitch continues to grow, contract negotiations remain unresolved, with Serie A rivals monitoring the midfielder’s situation closely.

Kevin De Bruyne is reportedly looking to reunite with Raheem Sterling at Napoli. The duo won numerous trophies together at Manchester City, where they formed a close friendship and remain in touch to this day. Now, it is being claimed that Sterling could join De Bruyne at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona after leaving Chelsea.

Noa Lang has lifted the lid on his abrupt Napoli exit, aiming a dig at Antonio Conte after claiming he was treated unfairly during his brief spell in Italy. The Dutch winger, who has joined Galatasaray on loan to save his World Cup dream, insists his relationship with the fiery manager was non-existent and hit out at the "political behaviour" behind the scenes in Naples that forced him out after just six months.

Dele Alli is reportedly in line for a sensational return to MK Dons, the club where he began his professional career. The former Tottenham and Everton star, who has won 37 international caps for England, has been a free agent since being released by Serie A outfit Como in September, but is now stepping up his latest comeback bid.

Napoli's hierarchy has admitted they are fearful of losing Scott McTominay as rumours of a Premier League return continue to swirl. The former Manchester United midfielder has been a revelation in Italy, but a senior club official has now conceded that the Scottish international "deserves" a move to the "next level" in the future, citing the financial dominance of English clubs as a major hurdle for Serie A sides.

The cause of Jean-Philippe Mateta's failed medical with Italian giants AC Milan has been revealed after the French striker's move away from Crystal Palace collapsed at the end of the January transfer window. The 28-year-old was keen to secure an exit from Selhurst Park and looked to be inching his way towards a switch to San Siro. However, issues became apparent during medical checks and Mateta remains a Palace player.

Pulisic’s fitness is again a talking point after his latest absence for AC Milan, with the World Cup looming and careful management now critical.

The 2026 winter window closed on Monday, with Jorgen Strand Larsen's £48 million move from Wolves to Crystal Palace the biggest deal done on deadline day. Truth be told, though, it was a pretty tame end to what's been a fairly quiet month in the transfer market. Indeed, aside from Manchester City, most of Europe's top teams did next-to-no mid-season business, while there was very little movement at all in France, Germany or Spain - which wasn't that surprising, given January is traditionally a tough time to find good value for money.

Famously, the January transfer window is the more difficult of the two to operate in. It's hard to persuade other clubs to give up assets mid-season, sometimes even harder to convince players that they're better off making a move immediately rather than waiting until the following summer. But that doesn't mean deals are impossible, or that you can't get good value for your buck.

January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Some clubs need to raise funds to balance the books, while others can be left with not option but to unload an unhappy player who has made it clear that he wants to join a stronger side.

Sandro Tonali's agent has opened up on the midfielder's future amid talk of interest from Arsenal and Juventus. Beppe Riso has denied reports that he offered the Italy international to the Gunners on deadline day but says he will evaluate the midfielder's future later in the season and whether Newcastle "are open to anything." Tonali is contracted to the Magpies until 2029.

Jean-Philippe Mateta's proposed move to AC Milan from Crystal Palace has collapsed, according to reports. The Eagles striker had first been in talks with Nottingham Forest but was closing in on a move to Italy; at the last minute, however, the Serie A side have pulled the plug. Milan have opted to walk away after medical checks revealed a knee problem.

After all the drama provided by the Champions League in midweek, domestic action returned over the weekend, and it did not disappoint. Title races and battles to earn European spots are heating up around the continent, with there plenty of twists and turns still to come over the next three-and-a-half months.
