Italy international Daniel Maldini has seen his weekend go from the ultimate high to a crushing low after having his driving licence suspended in Milan. The 24-year-old, who is the son of legendary defender Paolo Maldini, was involved in a road traffic accident just hours after netting the decisive goal for Cagliari in Serie A.

Cagliari striker Daniel Maldini escaped unhurt after being involved in a two-car collision in Milan at dawn on Sunday. The forward had just scored the winning penalty against Atalanta on Saturday.

Another summer, another Chelsea move for a high-potential, young star. This one, though, might just be different. The Blues sprung into life to hijack Inter's move for Atalanta prospect Marco Palestra, who has become the first signing of the Xabi Alonso era in a deal worth a cool €55 million (£47m/$62m).

Chelsea have officially confirmed the signing of Italian international Marco Palestra from Atalanta in a deal worth a reported £47 million. The 21-year-old defender becomes the first major acquisition of the Xabi Alonso era at Stamford Bridge as the Blues look to overhaul their squad following a difficult season.
