"Billy Gilmour will undergo surgery in London on Monday, accompanied by Gennaro De Luca from the club's medical staff," a statement on Napoli's website read.

Having arrived in the summer for over €40m (including bonuses), everyone certainly expected more from Nkunku, who has not yet showcased the qualities he displayed with Chelsea barring one moment. His only flash of brilliance came in the Coppa Italia match against Lecce on September 23, when Nkunku scored his first goal with an acrobatic finish from a cross. In Serie A, however, he made only two starts - against Roma and Parma - and has had many sub-par performances.

Roma were not expected to win the Serie A title, but they are on fire at the moment, having picked up 27 points from 12 matches, two points ahead of second-placed AC Milan. Roma will take on FC Midtjylland at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday evening before facing Napoli this weekend. Gian Piero Gasperini's side beat Cremonese 3-1 away from home in Serie A last weekend, which came after a 2-0 victory over Udinese in Rome in the league.

I spent the last few months studying and growing as a coach. I received other calls too, but I waited for Atalanta,

Starting with the hosts, heading into November's fortnight interval with three consecutive Serie A stalemate, Torino have the feel of a squad who are once again searching for some crucial stability.

When I try to understand why Milan and Inter, off the pitch, have had such a complicated yet always harmonious journey, I think of Milan.

AS Roma are preparing a January approach for Tottenham Hotspur striker Mathys Tel, with the Serie A club eager to reinforce their frontline midway through the season. According to Gazzetta dello Sport (via Football Italia), Roma have identified the 20-year-old French forward as one of their priority targets, and early discussions are underway regarding a potential loan deal until the end of the campaign. Tottenham, who signed Tel permanently from Bayern Munich last summer, are not considering a full sale, but they are open to sanctioning a temporary exit.

I started playing at four years old, in a team near my neighbourhood, Forese. When I think back and look at where I am now, it gives me motivation and pride. I owe and will owe everything to my family; they've made great sacrifices for me, like moving to Lecce this year. When I made my debut at San Siro for Milan against Fiorentina, my mother burst into tears,
