Italy internationals including Chiesa, Frattesi, Raspadori and Lucca are linked with January moves ahead of the 2026 World Cup. Betting impact: expect early market shifts — Juventus or Roma/Lazio signing attackers could shorten goalscorer odds, while Frattesi departing Inter may affect midfield coverage markets. Punters should monitor lineups and transfer confirmations before staking.
January transfer window: Italy internationals linked with moves ahead of the 2026 World Cup
The January window has produced fresh speculation around several Italy internationals seeking game time before the March play-offs and the 2026 World Cup cycle. Clubs and players are weighing short-term loans, permanent moves and squad roles as the mid-season deadline approaches.
Federico Chiesa — Liverpool to Juventus reunion talk
Federico Chiesa has struggled for consistent starts since arriving at Liverpool on a cut-price deal last summer. Reports suggest Juventus have discussed a reunion, exploring a loan while Liverpool prefer an outright sale. A return to Turin would boost Juventus’ attacking options and could shift market expectations around their goalscoring output.
Davide Frattesi — Inter valuation stalls potential exits
Davide Frattesi faces heavy competition for minutes at Inter and has been linked with Galatasaray and Juventus. Inter are standing firm on a roughly €35m valuation and prefer permanent deals or loans with obligations. Any move would alter Inter’s midfield depth and could influence betting lines on the club’s creativity and midfield-driven markets.
Giacomo Raspadori — Atletico struggle sparks Serie A interest
Giacomo Raspadori has found starts hard to come by since joining Atletico Madrid, making mostly substitute appearances. Links to Roma and Lazio have emerged as both clubs eye attacking reinforcements. A return to Serie A would affect both clubs’ attacking profiles and individual goalscorer markets ahead of the spring fixtures.
Lorenzo Lucca — Napoli options limited with competition
Lorenzo Lucca joined Napoli on loan with an obligation to buy but has slipped down the pecking order behind Rasmus Hojlund and a returning Romelu Lukaku. Juventus interest has been suggested as they seek centre-forward reinforcements. Any transfer would reshape striker depth charts and short-term betting on starting lineups and goal threats.
What punters should watch
Transfer confirmations, medicals and official squad registrations will drive short-term market moves. Track starting XI announcements, injury updates and whether deals are loans or permanent — each detail changes implied minutes and scoring probability. For value bets, wait for confirmed transfers before backing altered goalscorer or lineup markets.
