The biggest signings in Serie A so far

Serie A clubs have once again become strong contenders in European football. In recent seasons, teams such as Roma, Inter and Atalanta have consistently reached the finals of European competitions. Atalanta won their first European title by beating Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League final. Meanwhile, Fiorentina reached the Conference League final for two consecutive seasons, missing out both times. This growing competitiveness has made Italy an attractive destination for top players looking for new challenges. As a result, the recent period has seen several signings that are set to influence the performance and chances of winning Italian teams in European competitions.

Alvaro Morata’s move to Milan marks one of the most notable transfers this season. One of the most skilled strikers of his generation, Morata brings a wealth of experience to Serie A, having previously played for Juventus before moving to Atlético Madrid.

During his time at Juventus, he formed a good partnership with Carlos Tevez in the 2014-15 season.

Morata’s career saw him excel at top clubs such as Chelsea, Real Madrid and Atlético Madrid. His impressive career statistics included over 550 matches in which he scored over 230 goals.

Last season, Morata showed his talent by scoring 21 goals in 48 appearances for Atlético Madrid. At Milan, he is seen as an ideal replacement for the aging Olivier Giroud and will provide fresh energy. His recent Euro triumph with Spain as captain of the national team further enhances his reputation.

As Milan look to regain their position among Europe’s elite clubs, the signing of Morata is a strategic move to strengthen their attacking options and raise their competitive edge.

Another huge addition to Serie A is the transfer of Artem Dovbyk from Girona to Roma. The news was anticipated by Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano and confirmed by Roma in early August. Dovbyk’s arrival promises to strengthen Roma’s attacking formation.

The Ukrainian striker has had an outstanding season in La Liga. He finished top scorer with 24 goals in 36 games and overtook notable names such as Jude Bellingham and Alexander Sorloth.

Dovbyk’s international exploits further highlight his capabilities as he was instrumental in Ukraine’s successful qualification for the European Championship. Before joining Girona, he played for Dnipro-1 and Midtjylland, where he honed his skills and established himself as a prolific striker. Under the guidance of manager Daniele De Rossi, Roma aim to build on their recent successes and challenge for top honors in domestic and European competitions.

This young midfielder, known for his dynamic style of play, joined the Bianconeri from Aston Villa, where he spent five productive years. Luiz’s ability to switch from defense to attack has drawn comparisons to players such as N’Golo Kante. His impressive performances last season, which included ten goals and ten assists in 53 games, attracted the attention of several top clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City.

Luiz’s arrival in Turin is seen as a key step in tackling Juventus’ midfield woes. Despite having a strong attacking duo in Dusan Vlahovic and Kenan Yildiz, the team often lost midfield battles.

With new Juventus manager Thiago Motta bringing energy and fresh tactics to the squad, Luiz is expected to play a pivotal role in transforming their midfield dynamic. Motta, who enjoyed remarkable success with Bologna last season, is optimistic that Luiz’s inclusion will boost Juventus’ competitiveness and bring them the Scudetto after a three-year wait.
