There are just a few hours left until the official opening of the winter transfer market, with the Cagliari ready to intervene to fix some gaps in the squad Fabio Pisacanewhich closed 2025 with the beautiful and convincing victory of Torino against Baroni’s Granata and which will open 2026 in Serie A by hosting the Milan in advance of the 18th matchday, scheduled Friday 2 January with kick-off at 8.45pm.
Maneuvers between the posts
The rossoblù sporting director Guido Angelozzi is already working to shape the group coached by Pisacane, which should undergo some changes compared to the one that started the season. Starting from the goalkeeping department, who will say goodbye soon Boris Radunovic: the 29-year-old Serbian will move down a category, going to defend the goalposts Spice of Donadoni, in full struggle for salvation. The transfer formula is to be defined, with Radunovic linked to Cagliari by a contract expiring in June 2027. Remaining in the cadettery, he should return to the rossoblù from Frosinone Alen Sherri, now out of Alvini’s plans. The Albanian had left in the summer to be the starter, but the bad facial injury suffered in the first match of the season in the Italian Cup against Monza made him lose space in favor of the former Olbia player Palmisani, author of an excellent first round so far. However, the future of the former Egnatia remains to be understood, as he could fill the void left by Radunovic’s departure as well as leave Cagliari again in search of a starting shirt.
Defense, right central goal
As far as defense is concerned, it is no mystery that the Sa Ruina club is looking for a right-footed centre-back, capable of replacing Mina and allow the full recovery of Zé Pedro, still in the pits after the meniscus problem in his left knee suffered last November. The profile is that of a physically structured player with good international experience, capable of becoming Juanchi Rodriguez’s partner in the future. The rossoblù always like 2005 Kofler of Sudtirol, but the Bolzano club’s reluctance to sell him in January makes any negotiation practically impracticable. The idea is that of a definitive purchase, a hypothesis that cools the slopes The dozenformer rossoblù now working for Como e Marianucciheaded (on dry loan) to Cremona, where the former rossoblù coach Davide Nicola continues to hope to be able to embrace Sebastiano Luperto. A wish destined to remain unfulfilled, with the excellent performance offered by the Lecce central defender in Turin which confirmed his importance in the defensive rotations of a Cagliari team who certainly benefit from the experience of an expert element like Luperto, who has returned to the central position in the rossoblù balance.
Midfield, hot Nicolussi Caviglia
In midfield the strong name is that of Hans Nicolussi Cavigliaplay Juve school leaving the Fiorentina. The idea of the rossoblù club is to take a maneuvering midfielder who duets together with Prati, among the best on the pitch in Turin. This is a concrete hypothesis, but the formula must be found: Fiorentina, who in the summer closed the deal with Venezia on the basis of an onerous loan with obligation to buy – 1 million plus 7 million in buyout conditioned on 50% of appearances, a condition not reached so far and which would be unlikely to be achieved, given that the Viola want to bring about a revolution in midfield – would immediately release the Aosta player, with Cagliari taking over from the Viola in the deal with the lagoon players, however, aiming to re-discuss the ransom amount downwards. Not a simple operation, with the Venezia called to decide what to do with the sword of Damocles of the almost certain failure to redeem Nicolussi Caviglia by Fiorentina. As for the offensive department, Lecture at the moment he seems destined to remain in Cagliari until the end of the season, a hypothesis which at the same time also cools ideas Brescianini e Maldinileaving Atalanta and on which several Serie A clubs remain vigilant. Meanwhile, with the elimination of Angola and Zambia from the groups, Pisacane will have both available again immediately Liteta That It’s a shape: if the former doesn’t move, called to shuttle between the First Team and the Under 20s, the latter is no longer as untouchable as in the past, even if Felici’s knockout now makes him one of the main alternatives in the offensive department. And always in attack the long-awaited explosion of Semih Kılıçsoy he has definitively changed his plans on the market: as said and repeated for weeks, barring sensational occasions, another center forward should not arrive. While waiting for Belotti’s full recovery, the Turk, Borrelli and Pavoletti will compete for the central striker’s shirt, while the eyes of the rossoblù club are focused on a promising attacking winger, ready to replace the injured Felici in Pisacane’s offensive rotations.
