Serie A Round 10, Juventus 1-0 defeated Turin. This Turin derby actually looks more like an Serbian derby - the only Italian players in the two teams who played as the starter were Keane Jr. and Locatelli, but as many as 5 Serbian players started: Juventus' Vlahovic and Kostic ; Savic, Lukic and Radonic in Turin. It is worth mentioning that the above five players are all Serbian internationals, and they also have several national teammates who are also in Serie A.
Fiorentina, like Turin, also has 3 Serbian internationals, namely defenders Mirenkovic , Terzici, and forwards Jovic who switched to "Purple Lily" this summer from Real Madrid to "Purple Lily". Among them, Mirenkovic is the core of Serbia's defense and his main position in the club is also extremely stable. He has renewed his contract with Fiorentina until 2027; Terzic is not the absolute main player in Fiorentina, but he has also got a lot of opportunities to play due to the team's two-line battles; Jovic's condition is still not ideal, and he has played 8 times in Serie A this season and only scored one goal.
Lazio only has one Serbian international, namely mlinkovic . As the offense and defense core of the "Blue Eagles", Milinkovic has performed extremely well this season, scoring 4 goals and 7 assists in 13 appearances, making him the player with the most assists in Serie A.
Verona has two Serbian international midfielders, namely Lazovic and Ilic. Lazovic joined Verona three years ago and has played 116 games for the team, scoring 8 goals and assisting 22 times; the 21-year-old Ilic is known as "Milli Linkovic", and is the core of Serbia's future organization and Verona's main midfielder. This summer, he once became the pursuit target of Paris Saint-Germain , Atletico, Lazio and other teams. There is also a Serbian international midfielder in the team - this summer, Gurici and Sassuolo contract expired, and then transferred to Sampdoria.
In the Serbian national team 27 players released not long ago, the above 12 Serbian players are among them. Serie A has also become the league that contributes the most Serbian internationals, and La Liga contributes second, with a total of 6 people. From this perspective, if the Italian team missed the Qatar World Cup, if Serbia can perform well in the World Cup, it will be a comfort for Serie A fans.
