Juventus Rebuild
Following an incredible run of nine league titles in a row for Juventus, the last two Serie A titles have been split by the Milan sides. Massimiliano Allegri is currently retooling his side but reports indicate that he will be losing a key part of his squad with Matthijs de Ligt linked with Bayern Munich.

If the club aims to get back into the title fight in the coming seasons then they will need to pull off this deal for the 25-year-old.
Inter Lose Out on Key Player
After winning the league title in the 2020/21 campaign to end their drought, Inter lost out in the 2021/22 season to their rivals AC Milan. The Rossoneri have had their squad depleted so far this summer, however, which opened the door for their rivals to gain an edge in this window.
Inter have yet to strengthen to any notable degree, aside from Romelu Lukaku returning on loan, and missing out on Bremer is the latest setback for the club.
