Tuttosport begins with transfer talk: "Juve, here comes Campbell." After negotiations between Manchester United and the Tottenham Hotspur and England defender reached a dead end, the suggestion is that "the Bianconeri are renewing their interest" in Sol Campbell. The Turin daily continues, "There will also be a meeting on Monday with Udinese over the transfers of Marco Zanchi and Giuliano Giannichedda."

The Gazzetta dello Sport writes: "Udinese start the bidding war between Inter, Milan and Parma for Stefano Fiore. He is worth an estimated Lit.50 Billion [£16m]." There is also a comment on the international set-up: "France are already in good form beating Croatia by two goals. The World Champions, with Zidane their inspiration, score through Pires and Trezeguet." Meanwhile Gianluca Zambrotta describes Italy as a "drifting mine", and in Holland Edgar Davids undergoes an operation on an ingrowing toenail and will be out of training for eight days.

The Corriere dello Sport highlights the players in danger of being excluded from Dino Zoff's final 22: "Iuliano or Pancaro is the only decision yet to be made," we read. The paper also covers the thoughts of Alessandro Del Piero: "I'm not convinced Zoff has decided to go with the pairing of Inzaghi and Montella. All I am asking the coach is that he let me play. The five Italian front men have scored few goals between them in the last few months. We are saving the goals for the European Championships." There is also news that Del Piero will soon have his own Internet site.
