Serie A News

A bunch of USMNT players have been on the move. Let's grade them all, from Matt Turner to Gio Reyna and everyone in between ahead of the 2026 World Cup.

AC Milan midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek and defender Jarell Quansah have been called up to the England squad for the forthcoming World Cup qualifiers.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek describes England manager Thomas Tuchel as "very intelligent," after the 29-year-old has been called up to the national squad for the first time since 2019.

Inter Miami midfielder Benjamin Cremaschi will join Parma on loan through June 2026, and the Serie A side will have the option to purchase his contract.

Dele Alli is a free agent again after a mutual termination of his contract at Como, having made just one appearance for the Serie A side.
