Matija Frigan - Returns to action Frigan (knee) played 45 minutes in Saturday's friendly against Sassuolo.

Impact Frigan has been a full-go this summer after missing the entire last season due to an ACL tear and will compete up front with Mateo Pellegrino and Nesta Elphege. He had registered 14 goals and 4 assists in 41 matches with HNK Rijeka in his last healthy campaign before joining Parma.

Giovanni Daffara - Suffers thigh issue Daffara sustained a low-grade right thigh strain in training. Tuttomercatoweb reported.

Impact Daffara will need three to four weeks to recover and will be a close call for the Serie A opener in late August. He's currently competing with Edoardo Corvi for backup duties behind Zion Suzuki, who's being targeted by a few bigger teams.

Hans Nicolussi Caviglia - Suffers thigh injury Nicolussi Caviglia has been diagnosed with a medium-grade right lesion, Parma announced.

Impact Nicolussi Caviglia could be sidelined for up to two months, according to Tuttomercatoweb, and therefore, he's set to miss the first few Serie A rounds. Parma are currently thin in the midfield, as Adrian Bernabe has yet to recover from injury, and Nahuel Estevez has left the club.

Alessandro Circati - Five clearances in loss to Egypt Circati registered one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 1-1 (5-3) penalty shootout defeat versus Egypt. He also added five cleara...

Impact Despite being a center-back, Circati proved to be heavily involved in offense. The Parma defender was one of two center-backs to play every single minute of World Cup action for the Socceroos, with Harry Souttar being the other. Circati finished the World Cup with 19 clearances, 10 tackles, six blocked shots, two interceptions, two clean sheets and three shots off target.

Franco Carboni - Staying at Parma Carboni has signed a contract with Parma until 2030, leaving Inter permanently after a loan spell.

Impact Carboni only featured seven times (one start) since joining last January, but the club decided to keep him anyway, likely in a reserve role behind Emanuele Valeri. He posted three crosses (zero accurate), two tackles, two interceptions and four clearances with Parma.

JULY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Giovanni Daffara - Heads to Parma Daffara has agreed to a deal until 2031 with Parma after joining from Juventus.

Impact Daffara has been a regular for three seasons in a row in the lower leagues, first with Juventus' second team and then Avellino in Serie B in the most recent one. He'll compete with Filippo Corvi to be the starter, as Zion Suzuki is expected to leave for a bigger team later in the summer. He kept three clean sheets and allowed 39 goals in 25 starts in 2025/2026.

JULY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Zion Suzuki - Beaten twice in second half Suzuki had four saves and allowed two goals in Monday's 2-1 defeat against Brazil.

Impact Suzuki delivered an absolute clinic between the posts at times, but the goalkeeper was beaten twice in the second half by Casemiro (thigh) and Gabriel Martinelli. Suzuki's WC campaign with Japan comes to an end after conceding five goals in four appearances. He made 12 saves and kept a clean sheet against Tunisia.

JUNE 29 • ROTOWIRE

Benjamin Cremaschi - Staying at Parma Cremaschi signed a contract until 2031 as Parma picked up their option to buy him out from Inter Miami.

Impact Cremaschi didn't play a lot in his first Serie A campaign and got hurt just as he was starting to gain some traction, but Parma decided he's shown enough to stay, and he'll look to gain a bigger role throughout the summer and next season. He's widely expected to play a full go for the first few friendlies already, as his knee injury was serious but not massive. He recorded one off-target shot, one key pass and six crosses (one accurate) in eight appearances (two starts) in 2025/2026.

Alessandro Circati - Solid showing in clean sheet Circati registered three tackles (two won), three clearances and one interception in Thursday's 0-0 draw against Paraguay.

Impact Circati put in another solid defensive showing as Australia claimed their second clean sheet in three games. The centre back recorded three tackles, three clearances and one interception while also completing 60 passes and four long balls as Australia enjoyed more possession than in the first two games. The center back has started all three group stage games and his tournament totals underline how important he has been to the backline, contributing 14 clearances, six blocks, two interceptions and eight tackles with at least two tackles and three clearances in every game.

JUNE 26 • ROTOWIRE

Zion Suzuki - Allows one against Sweden Suzuki made four saves and allowed one goal in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus Sweden.

Impact Suzuki would have an excellent night in net as he made a few major saves while earning four, although it wasn't enough for a clean sheet with one goal allowed. He remains at a top level for the team when challenged, despite the three goals allowed in three games, with eight saves being made. He will now prepare for the knockouts, where his opponent remains to be determined, playing either Norway or France.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Zion Suzuki - Clean sheet against Tunisia Suzuki recorded no saves and a clean sheet in Saturday's 4-0 win over Tunisia.

Impact Suzuki had nothing to do with Saturday's dominant win, as he was not tested with a single shot on net on his way to a clean sheet. This is after a much more challenging match against the Netherlands, forced to make four saves in that contest. He will now face Sweden in their group stage finale, likely be a tough task when facing Viktor Gyokeres and Alexander Isak.

Alessandro Circati - Records five clearances Circati had one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate, five clearances, three tackles won and two blocked shots in Friday's 2-0 loss to USA. In addition, he was given a yel...

Impact Circati was one of five players who took a shot for Australia in a game where they struggled to generate much offense. Circati's fantasy upside will remain tied to what he can do on the defensive side of the ball. Through two games, the Parma defender has 11 clearances, six blocked shots, five tackles and one interception.

JUNE 19 • ROTOWIRE

Zion Suzuki - Four saves made, allows two in draw Suzuki made four saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Netherlands.

Impact Suzuki opened Japan's 2026 World Cup campaign on Sunday against heavy group favorites Netherlands, conceding two second-half goals but also producing four big saves to help secure a 2-2 draw. Both goals came from close-range efforts inside the box, with Japan's back line repeatedly left exposed by the Dutch attack. Even so, Suzuki's shot-stopping kept Japan in the match, and his overall form suggests he should be well-positioned for the remaining group matches. Japan's next match comes against Tunisia on June 21 in Mexico.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Alessandro Circati - Makes World Cup debut Circati recorded one shot (zero on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Turkey.

Impact Circati played the full 90 minutes in Australia's 2-0 victory over Turkey, finishing with 13 defensive contributions, including six clearances, four blocks and an interception. He was repeatedly tested as Turkey dominated possession and directed sustained pressure toward Australia's penalty area and played a major role in preserving the clean sheet. Circati entered the tournament as one of the youngest members of Australia's preferred back line and his composed display highlighted his importance in the Australian defence.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Alessandro Circati - Essential defender for NT Circati is a likely starter in Australia's three-man defense heading into the World Cup.

Impact Circati has continued to build his reputation in Italy, where consistent playing time has accelerated his growth as a central defender. Over the past season, he scored one goal while averaging 4.8 clearances and 1.4 tackles per match across 31 starts for Parma, and he also found the back of the net during an international friendly against Curacao in March. Such involvement in high-intensity play, coupled with his aerial strength, make him one of the team's primary defensive picks. The central man brings a calm presence on the ball and is generally comfortable helping initiate attacks from deep positions. Other than that, regular minutes on the field could allow him to accumulate a respectable volume of clearances and interceptions, with Australia expected to lean heavily on its back line throughout the tournament.

JUNE 5 • ROTOWIRE

Zion Suzuki - Set to start with Japan Suzuki has been named in Japan's World Cup squad and is expected to start every fixture as coach Hajime Moriyasu's undisputed first choice in goal.

Impact Suzuki made 20 Serie A appearances for Parma this season, recording five clean sheets and 1,800 minutes across the campaign in what was another steady year for the keeper between the posts. His composure under pressure, ability to distribute with his feet and commanding presence in the box make him a natural fit for Japan's possession-based system, and manager Moriyasu will rely on him heavily throughout the competition. Suzuki heads into the World Cup as the undisputed number one for the Samurai Blue and a key pillar of Japan's defensive structure heading into what promises to be a demanding group stage.

Impact Almqvist set up Mateo Pellegrino for the only goal of the game in the 80th minute. Almqvist completed just four passes and made one tackle. He has featured in 13 games this campaign, starting only four times, and this was his first goal contribution of the season.

Edoardo Corvi - Registers clean sheet Corvi made one save and secured a clean sheet in Sunday's 1-0 win over Sassuolo.

MAY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Enrico Del Prato - Spared in season finale Delprato (undisclosed) was an unused sub in Sunday's 1-0 win over Sassuolo.

Impact Delprato was formally an option but wasn't fit enough to play, especially in a meaningless fixture. He hit the net twice, helped secure nine clean sheets and tallied 19 crosses (five accurate), 36 tackles and 109 clearances in 35 tilts.
