entangled in the Insigne and Correa events, but all three in any case linked to the approach that the super benches of Spalletti, Sarri and Mourinho will be able to have. The oscillations of the magnificent seven probable protagonists of the series, which begins on Saturday 21, reflect the anomaly of a new season suspended between various factors: the European title has regenerated the value of Italian football and of the players who have propitiated it, but the continuation of the covid limitations have made the teams poorer, unable to compete with the Premier League raises. This also explains the farewell of Lukaku for 115 million, together with that of Hakimi at PSG, preceded by that of the helmsman of the championship, Antonio Conte. Inter is downsizing, relies on Simone Inzaghi who, while waiting for Correa, canrely on Dzeko and Dumfries. A rational analysis of the forces on the pitch is favored by Juve which, after the opaque season with Pirlo, returns to the skilled hands of Allegri, a championship collector.

Ronaldo remains, Dybala will have more weight, Chiesa will affect more in a strong and balanced squad that will be completed by the additions of Locatelli and Pjanic. In the second row, Atalanta and Milan seem to be preferred, confirming the outcome of the last season. Gasp's Goddess is a perfect machine that runs on autopilot. He loses Romero and inserts Demiral, improves on goal with Musso, tries to take Boga and Zappacosta to best complete a staff that should lose Ilicic, hardly Zapata for less than 40 million. After so many super placings, Atalanta wants to try the kidney stroke to win the Scudetto, which would be the icing on the cake of an incomparable era. Pioli's Milan rises in tone which has casually collected the departures of Donnarumma and Calhanoglu, has included emerging young people andexpert Giroud, is about to conclude with Florenzi and Adli, but for two months he will have to do without his leader Kessie.

Then there is a trio that must find the Champions League to return to being a protagonist. Napoli enlists the energetic Spalletti, counts in the explosion of Osimhen, has a staff of great importance with the confirmation of many numbers one. However, the arm wrestling for the renewal of Insigne is prolonged too much and there is a left winger and a midfielder missing. Furthermore, Manolas could leave and the club is thinking about Rugani. The Sarri method needs time to be metabolized, so there are works in progress in Lazio that Correa has to sell to make the market, as well as the excellent arrival of Hysaj and Felipe Anderson. Many market difficulties for Roma who play the wild card Mourinho to return to excel. The arrival of Abraham, however, demonstrates the will to do things big,now a director and a right winger are missing to complete a good squad, as long as Tiago Pinto manages to get rid of the many redundancies that weigh on the budget. The 70 million invested, albeit in an unbalanced way up to now, are however a sign of rising ambitions.

The audience of competitors for Europe enlists Dionisi's Sassuolo, who is about to lose Locatelli while maintaining his balance, the Italian's Fiorentina who confirms Vlahovic and spends a lot for Nico Gonzalez. Toro also arouses consensus, making use of Juric's solid guidance and should re-present Belotti, for lack of convinced buyers, then there is also confidence for Di Francesco's Verona who inserts Ilic and confirms Zaccagni and Veloso. Ambitions also motivated for Arnautovic's Bologna, Strootman's Cagliari (which ends up with the Nandez case) and Damsgaard's Sampdoria. The Genoa market is the usual amusement park, Udinese has the problem of replacing De Paul. The sprint to salvation seems to involve four teams: Thiago Motta's Spezia and the three newly promoted:Empoli di Andreazzoli with Cutrone and probably Pinamonti seems to be the one in better shape. Salernitana di Castori, which the trust will have to sell by 2021, has reinforced the attack with Simy and Bonazzoli. Zanetti's Venezia is a kind of foreign legion, with many grafts from abroad and the reassuring presence of Caldara in defense.


 One more year of var, which will now also be extended to Serie B, should guarantee a more peaceful work for the referees while the news regarding TV rights with Serie A on Dazn will have to be metabolized by the TV users.
