Several high-profile stars have been left out of European squad lists following key deadline decisions. From Liverpool's Federico Chiesa and Real Madrid's Ferland Mendy to Borussia Dortmund captain Emre Can, managers across the continent faced tough selection calls due to injuries and squad limits.

Franck Kessie has officially broken his silence on the decision to reject a lucrative move to Juventus in favour of a romantic return to Atalanta. The Ivorian powerhouse, who returns to Bergamo nearly a decade after his departure, revealed that his heart ultimately dictated his next move following his departure from the Saudi Pro League.

Juventus have been rocked by the news that captain Manuel Locatelli is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines after sustaining a serious knee injury. The Italian international is expected to be unavailable for at least three months, leaving manager Luciano Spalletti with a significant selection headache as the club’s injury list continues to grow.

Luciano Spalletti has refused to criticise the match officials following a controversial incident involving Randal Kolo Muani during Juventus' clash with Milan. The Bianconeri boss defended referee Maurizio Mariani, insisting that soft contacts should not be given as fouls in modern football.
