Join us in following the Serie A rumours and deals as they happen in the January transfer window.

The winter transfer window opened on January 2, and some Serie A clubs have already welcomed new faces.

Milan completed the first transfer by signing Niclas Fullkrug on loan with an option to buy from West Ham and the German has already made his debut with the Rossoneri in the first game of the year against Cagliari.

Other Serie A clubs are looking for attacking reinforcements, especially Roma, who have targeted Giacomo Raspadori of Atletico Madrid and Joshua Zirkzee of Manchester United.

Inter’s priority is to sign a right midfielder who can replace Denzel Dumfries, as the Dutchman has been out of action for several weeks and is not expected to return before March.

Juventus are reportedly on the market for a central midfielder and a winger, while Antonio Conte’s Napoli will be looking to add depth in the middle of the park and in attack.

The winter transfer window will end on February 2 at 20:00 CET (19:00 GMT). Follow every news and transfer rumour on the Football Italia liveblog.
