This morning’s edition of Corriere della Sera has some interesting transfer updates, including one on the potential sale of Noah Okafor. According to today’s edition of the paper (via Reddit), some news has arrived in view of the January transfer window. First of all, denials have come from Milan regarding reported interested in Monza’s Bondo and Hellas Verona’s Reda Belahyane. The stance of the directors is clear: they are waiting for Ismael Bennacer to return to the squad before making further considerations about midfield needs, and the latest suggests that the Algerian could even be back playing before the end…
Mike Maignan opted to wear AC Milan’s third kit for the 3-0 win against Empoli, rather than one of his own kits. According to a report, it might not be the last time we see this from the goalkeeper. Milan wore their home kit for the game, just like Empoli, but the eagle-eyed of you will have spotted that Maignan went against the usual outfit. Indeed, he wore the Rossoneri’s third kit for outfield players, despite having three different goalkeeping shirts himself: a black one, a yellow one and a green one. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the goalkeeper simply…
A journalist has made the bold claim that AC Milan have almost completed the signing of midfielder Samuele Ricci from Torino. According to Fabio Ravezzani, Milan have ‘practically closed’ a deal with Torino for Ricci. He also states that the Granata have got their replacement lined up too: Matteo Prati from Cagliari. Of course these claims should be taken with a big pinch of salt, but Ravezzani is the director of QSVS and Top Calcio 24. In the past he worked for Torino and they are the team he supports, so he has in the past broken accurate information…
Two races left for the Silver Arrows: Hamilton reflects on leaving Mercedes, a farewell to an iconic partnership – Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula One World Champion, is on the verge of ending his illustrious chapter with Mercedes. After more than a decade of dominance, personal growth and a string of historic milestones, Hamilton is preparing for his final two races with the team that helped define his legacy.

Without Strahinja Pavlovic, AC Milan could have had a very different night on Tuesday, but he is still flawed. The solution must be found quickly because the Serbian could become crucial. In a season where Pavlovic has been criticised more than he has been supported, it seems strange to see him named as a miracle man, but Gazzetta dello Sport have deemed his performance on Tuesday deserving of that title. As Slovan Bratislava countered and Strelec rounded and beat Mike Maignan, an open goal awaited him, and it would have accepted his gift were it not for Pavlovic. The Serb…
Mario Andretti says Max Verstappen would be the ideal recruit for the Cadillac F1 entry for F1 2026 given the need for experience when they arrive on the grid. General Motors agreed a deal in principle to join the Formula 1 grid as an 11th team from the F1 2026 season through its Cadillac brand, with 1978 World Champion Andretti set to serve in a non-executive advisory role with the team when they join. Verstappen is contracted to Red Bull until the F1 2028 season but reports have persisted that others are interested in his services for as soon as…
Tammy Abraham looked back on his time in the Italian capital and discussed Jose Mourinho’s role in his arrival in Italy. During a recent interview with BBC Sport, the English striker – currently on loan at Milan – recounted his decision to join Roma from Chelsea in 2021. “I was playing PlayStation with my friends and I got a call and I answered, ‘Hi Tammy, it’s Jose Mourinho. Do you want to stay in rainy England or come to sunny Rome?’” “I remember running upstairs to tell my parents and we thought Rome was the place to go.” “José was…
Paulo Fonseca acknowledges Milan ‘played it safe and didn’t take enough risks’ in the dismal 0-0 draw with Juventus, but still insists they can win the Scudetto. ‘I continue to believe.’ The very loud jeers at the final whistle raining down from the stands at San Siro made clear how unhappy the fans were with the performance even more than the result. Against a Juve side decimated by injuries and without a single available centre-forward, the Rossoneri struggled to create any real scoring opportunities with a Theo Hernandez header straight at Michele Di Gregorio in stoppages their only shot on…
F1 2024 champion elect Max Verstappen has “no chance at all” of finishing in the top two at the Las Vegas Grand Prix this weekend on the evidence of Thursday practice. That is the opinion of Red Bull adviser Helmut Marko, who has admitted the Mercedes W15 is looking “really strong” in Nevada. Verstappen enters the Las Vegas GP with a 62-point lead over Lando Norris, with the Red Bull driver able to seal a fourth consecutive World Championship this weekend if he finishes ahead of his McLaren rival. Despite ending a 10-race winless run at the last race in…
George Weah, the former AC Milan striker, is a well-known Juventus fan and has shared his thoughts on the big clash tonight. However, even if the Rossoneri win, the 58-year-old will still be ‘a little bit’ happy. Weah played for Milan between 1995 and 2000, scoring 46 goals in the process, but throughout the years he has never hid his love for Juventus. Now, his son Timothy is playing for the club and this has made the Milan-Juventus fixture even more special. Speaking to La Repubblica, as cited by MilanNews, Weah shared his thoughts on the game and which team…
