Juventus have confirmed the permanent signing of Colombia international defender Jhon Lucumi from Serie A rivals Bologna on a long-term contract running until June 2030. The 28-year-old centre-back rejected five rival offers from across Europe to complete his switch to Turin and bolster the Bianconeri's defence ahead of the upcoming 2026-27 campaign.
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.
Juventus have reached an agreement in principle to sign Bologna defender Jhon Lucumi after fending off strong interest from the Premier League. The Colombian international has agreed a five-year contract in Turin, although the two Italian clubs must still negotiate a final transfer fee.
Serie A side Bologna have turned down a €30m offer from Everton for English winger Jonathan Rowe and made it clear they are unwilling to part ways with the player this summer. The Toffees explored increasing their proposal to €35m, but the Italian club remain determined to keep hold of the 23-year-old following key squad departures.
Man Utd have made a move to sign Bologna defender Jhon Lucumi as they look to bolster their squad depth. However, Premier League rivals Chelsea are also monitoring the Colombian, who is available for a reasonable €25m fee as he enters the final year of his contract.
Domenico Tedesco has been without a club in Germany for almost four years. Yet the coach is never short of new offers. Abroad, the 40-year-old enjoys a very different reputation to the one he has at home.
