Federico Chiesa's difficult spell at Anfield could be coming to an abrupt end as three Serie A heavyweights prepare to battle for his signature in the January transfer window. The Italian international has struggled to make any significant impact on Merseyside, leading to intense speculation regarding a return to his homeland.

Atalanta forward Charles De Ketelaere has revealed that he held preliminary discussions with Paris Saint-Germain during the summer transfer window. The Ligue 1 champions ultimately prioritised a swoop for Ferran Torres from Barcelona, with the Italian outfit also standing firm on an exorbitant valuation that deterred several interested suitors.

Juventus released a stern statement condemning sections of their support who disrupted a minute of silence honouring Italian football icon Sandro Mazzola ahead of Sunday's 2-0 win over Atalanta. The pre-match tribute was marred when fans in the Curva Sud turned away and chanted, prompting swift rebukes from both the club and opposing manager Maurizio Sarri.

Maurizio Sarri has launched a sensational attack on the use of VAR in Serie A, suggesting the technology should be scrapped entirely following a controversial afternoon in Turin. The Atalanta boss was left fuming after his side were denied a penalty during their 2-0 defeat to Juventus, marking a third consecutive loss for the Bergamo outfit.
