Como also drew commendations for bolstering their squad. A club representative expressed satisfaction with the business conducted, saying, “The players joining will notably enhance our capabilities on the pitch and aid in our long-term objectives.”
On the other hand, Juventus made moves that were well received, described as “solid” by insiders who appreciated the club’s balanced approach to acquisitions and sales, thus securing a positive rating.
Conversely, Napoli found themselves at the bottom of the rankings. Critics pointed out that their lack of significant signings during this window could hinder their title aspirations. A commentator from Corriere dello Sport remarked, “Napoli’s inactivity might cost them dearly in the latter stages of the season.”
