5 'low cost' Christmas gifts from Serie A

Christmas is approaching. There are those who unwrap presents on Christmas Eve, perhaps after dinner, before or during the usual Christmas games; However, there are also those who await the awakening on the 25th, look under the tree and discard those packages that have been placed there for days. Let's try to extend Christmas to the Italian transfer market, which will reawaken in the winter session, but is already very active with negotiation ideas generated weeks ago.

Let's clean up from the speech the concept of 'package'gift, which often takes on a negative definition, to propose five footballers which could change the air in the next month, with in common the lack of protagonism in the current club. Who is it about?

We saw him enchant in the first half at Bentegodi. A goal and two assists to exacerbate the crisis of Zanetti's team and directly participate in the Scudetto race of theInterafter months of darkness. After that performance, however, Inzaghi only gave him one spell against Parma and sent him to the bench in the next three matches. One of his creativity, which has shown that he still boasts a good period of form, deserves space elsewhere.

He has made 15 appearances in the current season, with 2 goals and 3 assists in Serie A which brought crucial points to the Juventus cause. An important surprise especially for the future of Juventus of Thiago Motta, who will soon have all his attacking players back at his disposal. Lately the technician has played only as a card during the ongoing competition; this hypothesis could soon be reduced to a minimum.

8 total appearances in Serie A, of which 2 as a starter in the summer transfer market period in which the Neapolitan attack had yet to be completed. Then only 4 clips in the last two monthstoo little for a player who had also become fundamental for the Napoli by Luciano Spalletti. The coach continues to call him up for the Italian national team, but the offensive joker number 81 needs space and confidence to show his talent.

A goal on the first day against Torino, as a substitute, and then no direct contribution (goals and assists) to the cause of the Milan. Although Paulo Fonseca gave him several opportunities in Rafael Leao's moment of difficulty, the Swiss failed to give that something extra, to raise the level on the left wing. He can operate both as a winger and as a second striker and, if necessary, also as a central reference.

So many things happened in his season that time seems to have dilated. Holder in the first two with De Rossi, outside pink in September after having refused the transfer to Galatasaray and PSV, reinstated with Juric due to the difficulties on the flanks of the Giallorossi and now available with Ranieri, who however seems to favor other players on the external lanes (Angeliño, Saelemaekers, El Shaarawy, Celik, Abdulhamid). Six months after his contract expires (June 2025), his cycle in Rome seems to have come to an end prematurely.
