Calcio News and Calcio Mercato


The Serie A season fixtures have been announced and will start off in mouthwatering fashion. In week two prepare yourself for Milan v Inter, while in week three Juventus will travel to Rome to take on Lazio. Inter will face rivals Roma in week 12 at the San Siro, and the Champions will take on perhaps the Champions in waiting, Juventus, in week 15. Amazingly, Milan will clash with Juventus in week 19, and consequently 38 in the last round of the season which could see one of those teams lift the Scudetto in the face of a major rival. The Rome derby, one of the spectacles of the season will occur in week 15, December the 6th, and it will have a festive feel to it. Week 17, the final round before Christmas, on December 20th contains two blockbuster fixtures as Inter take on Lazio at the San Siro and Milan will travel to Florence to battle against Fiorentina.

Week one: August 22nd
However, it all begins on August 22nd with Catania v Sampdoria, Genoa v Roma, Inter v Bari, Juventus v Chievo, Lazio v Atalanta, Livorno v Cagliari, Palermo v Napoli, Siena v Milan and Udinese v Parma. Currently it is unknown which games will be on the 22nd and which ones on the 23rd. Full fixture are available on Footballitalia.com


Calcio Mercato
Lazio have sold David Rozenhal to Hamburg for a fee of around 5 million euros and Lazio look to re-invigorate their defence after a turgid back line last season. Arsenal's Gallas has been linked with a move to the Stadio Olimpico. Parma also have been active today, securing a loan for Valerie Bojinov from Manchester city and Roma's Christian Pannuci is close to moving to the Stadio Tardini also. Juventus also are on the verge of tying up a loan with an option to buy for Barcelona defender Martin Caceres. The talented stopper is extremely versatile with the ability to play at left, right and centre back.
