On the day Darmian chose his team for his return to Serie A , we also learn the recovery timeline for Gudmundsson’s injury . But that’s not all: even without matches, news around Serie A’s biggest clubs never stops.

Let’s look at today’s most important stories.

As reported by Corriere dello Sport , Juventus remain very interested in Nicolas Tagliafico: the Lyon left-back who had come close to joining the Bianconeri at the end of August.

However, Atletico Madrid also remain keen on the player, as the colchoneros do not have another natural left-back to rotate with Grimaldo, their undisputed starter.

According to MilanNews , intermediaries have offered Koopmeiners to Milan : a profile that, however, does not excite the Rossoneri management.

The Dutchman’s spell at Juventus seems to be coming to an end, and the aim is to find him a new club. Milan will probably look for midfielders in January, but Koopmeiners’ name is not at the top of the list.

Andy Diouf’s performance at left-back in Belgium-France divided the French media. In particular, former World Cup-winning defender Samuel Umtiti was fairly critical: "It was obvious he wasn’t used to that position."

"We saw him anticipate some situations and arrive late in others. It’s up to him to work on that individually, but it won’t be easy because he’s a very attack-minded player ."
