  "account": "Giovanni Carnevali, Marco Ottolini, and Giorgio Chiellini, directors of Juventus, observed Italy international Romano play against Turkey during Italy's recent 3-1 win over the Turkish team in Bologna. According to recent reports, the directors were closely watching Romano, particularly his performance as a midfielder. Romano, who was relatively unknown in Serie A at the beginning of the 2026-27 season, scored his first top-flight goal and made his debut for Italy. He has caught the attention of major clubs such as Inter and Juventus. Sources have suggested that the Nerazzurri are ready to prioritize Romano as their primary midfielder signing should Hakan Calhanoglu depart the club at the conclusion of his contract next summer. Reports from Tuttosport also indicate that Juventus are actively monitoring the 20-year-old's performances. Additionally, Milan and Roma are reportedly interested in Romano, a former Switzerland youth international. The Parma-born Romano joined Cagliari on loan, with an option to buy, from Roma earlier this summer for a total of €6.5 million. Sources claim that Cagliari has no intention of opposing any substantial cash offers for Romano, potentially as high as €20 million in the near future.",
