Bayern Munich needs 1 point to clinch Bundesliga title after Dortmund lose to Hoffenheim
Bayern Munich needs just one point to secure the Bundesliga title after Borussia Dortmund lost 2-1 to Hoffenheim. This loss leaves Dortmund unable to catch Bayern, who have a 12-point lead at the top of the table.
It now seems almost certain that Milan will not exercise their option to buy Niclas FĆ¼llkrug, the striker who arrived in January from West Ham on loan with a ā¬5 million option. At the end of the season, the player will therefore return to the London club, although his future does not appear to be in the Premier League.
As reported by Sky Sport DE journalist Florian Plettenberg, Wolfsburg are already considering a possible summer move for the German center-forward. His contract with West Ham would remain valid even in the event of relegation, albeit with a 50% salary reduction.
Inter, from Spain: āBastoni will force the issue!ā
The future of Alessandro Bastoni is still entirely unwritten. As is now well known, the defender has long been on Barcelonaās radar, with the club considering a possible move next season. Interās position, however, remains clear: the Nerazzurri have no intention of easily parting with one of the pillars of Chivuās team. The player would be willing to listen to any proposals, but without going so far as to force a move away from Milan. Much will therefore depend on the financial offer that may eventually land on Interās table.
According to Mundo Deportivo, however, the situation may be further along: Bastoni is said to be thrilled by the idea of joining Barcelona and willing to help make the deal happen. Contacts between his entourage and the blaugrana club are reportedly already underway, with the defender determined to push for a reduction in the transfer fee once the green light arrives from Deco and Flick.
The showdown between Romelu Lukaku and Napoli is drawing closer. The striker is in fact expected at Castel Volturno on Monday, where he will also be informed of possible sanctions following the incidents of recent weeks and his unauthorized stay in his home country.
Meanwhile, Big Romās physiotherapist, Lieven Maesschalck, spoke from Belgium and offered reassurance about the strikerās condition:
āEverything is going according to plan: Romelu is almost ready. He has worked intensely over the last 14 days, on average 4 hours a day, mainly on his fitness. He was fed up with the situation that had developed and wanted to get back to 100%.ā
Roma, Ranieri present at the stadium today
The Olimpico is preparing to welcome Claudio Ranieri, who is expected in the stands for tonightās match. The Giallorossi coach will watch the game from the stands, where he will sit alongside Frederic Massara, in what is being seen as a normal show of executive presence within the club.
It remains to be seen whether he will also speak to the media after the chaos of recent days.
Lazio, the figures behind the deal with the new sponsor
Lazio have officially announced their new main sponsor: it is the American company Polymarket, which will appear on the Biancocelesti shirts starting from the coming seasons. The statement reads:
āThe agreement will take effect immediately and, in addition to the final part of the current sporting season, will cover the 2026/2027 and 2027/2028 seasons, with an option for the 2028/2029 season. The total value of the deal exceeds $22 million, with additional bonuses tied to performance and activations.ā
The new head coach and the future of Moise Kean are the two missing pieces in Fiorentinaās build for next season. According to La Nazione, sporting director Paratici will be called upon to make key decisions immediately after the match against Lecce, when survival should by then be virtually secured.
The coaching choice will be the top priority, with several profiles on the table: from Fabio Grosso, who would first have to leave Sassuolo, to Maurizio Sarri, an option that remains in the background amid openings and second thoughts. Also among the candidates is Francesco Farioli, previously linked with Fiorentina, a young profile considered ideal for a modern and ambitious project.
