Napoli Lead Milan in Race for Liverpool Outcast Nunez
Napoli are working on two options to round out their frontline, Darwin Nunez and Lorenzo Lucca, and are ahead of the competition, coming from Milan in both cases, to sign them from Liverpool and Udinese. According to Corriere dello Sport, the Uruguayan marksman has received a lucrative offer from Al Nassr. However, he'd like to stay in Europe. The Rossoneri moved for him after the Serie A champions. Liverpool paid €75M to acquire him from Benfica a couple of years ago. His valuation has decreased since his spell hasn't gone as expected, but it's still large. The Reds want around €50M. He has notched 40 goals and 26 assists in 143 matches at Anfield. Advertisement Napoli have been in touch with the agent of Nunez over the last couple of days, but the deal isn't in its homestretch, neither with them nor Milan, Fabrizio Romano reports (via SOSFanta). As for Lucca, the Partenopei aren't far from the finish line. They have offered €25M, while Udinese ask for €5M more, Il Roma informs. His personal terms aren't a problem. They have gained the pole position over other sides. Though, they are waiting to see what happens with their other priority target. Our Take on Napoli and Milan Tussling for Nunez and Lucca The former is an easy bet to bounce back after a change of scenery, especially under a coach who can bring the best out of anybody like Antonio Conte. Still, while their new striker would play a lot because Romelu Lukaku will need to be managed, that's a massive fee for somebody who wouldn't be the unquestioned star of the team. The Rossoneri already invested a lot in the position in January and should safeguard that.

Lesbian Mothers Win Legal Status in Italy IVF Ruling
ROME (Reuters) -Italy's Constitutional Court said on Thursday that same-sex female couples who use in vitro fertilization (IVF) abroad can both be legally recognised as parents in Italy, even if one is not the biological mother. The ruling is likely to be welcomed by Italian LGBT groups who have repeatedly clashed with the conservative government of Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, a self-declared enemy of what she and her allies call the "LGBT lobby". The court found that denying legal recognition to the non-biological mother violates the constitutional principles of equality and personal identity and violates the child's rights to care, education and emotional continuity from both parents. The decision strikes down part of a 2004 law which did not allow both women in a same-sex couple to be registered as legal mothers, even if both consented to the procedure. Marilena Grassadonia, an LGBT rights activist from the Italian Left opposition party, said the ruling marked a "historic day" which "restores dignity and serenity to the many rainbow families who live in our country". The case was brought by a court in the Tuscan city of Lucca, which questioned the legality of denying "full dual parenthood" in a case involving a lesbian couple. The judges noted that confusion over the law had led to inconsistent rulings in various courts. This has left individual mayors, who control the civil registry in their municipalities, to make differing decisions in comparable cases. In some cases both mothers were listed on the child's birth certificate; in others, the non-biological mother was excluded. "These divergent outcomes reflect a shifting social reality to which the legislature has yet to respond," the referral said. The ruling did not alter Italy's current restrictions on access to IVF, which is still limited to heterosexual couples, but marked a shift towards the recognition of LGBTQ parenting rights. In a separate verdict also released on Thursday, the Constitutional Court said rules preventing single women from accessing IVF were not unconstitutional, but said they could be changed if a political will for it emerged in parliament.

Mothers' legal win in Italy IVF case seen as 'historic day' for 2SLGBTQ+ parenting rights
Social Sharing Italy's Constitutional Court said on Thursday that same-sex female couples who use in vitro fertilization (IVF) abroad can both be legally recognized as parents in Italy, even if one is not the biological mother.

WATCH | IVF finally coming to N.L.: Doctors in N.L. are — finally — bringing I.V.F. to the province 1 month ago Duration 3:32 The days of people in Newfoundland and Labrador having to leave home to receive I.V.F. treatments may be nearing an end. A pair of fertility specialists in St. John's are preparing to open a private I.V.F clinic, the first in the province. For patients, it would save a lot of time, money, and heartache. In some cases, both mothers were listed on the child's birth certificate; in others, the non-biological mother was excluded. "These divergent outcomes reflect a shifting social reality to which the legislature has yet to respond," the referral said. In a separate verdict also released on Thursday, the Constitutional Court said rules preventing single women from accessing IVF were not unconstitutional, but said they could be changed if political will for it emerged in parliament. The politics of fertility The ruling did not alter Italy's current restrictions on access to IVF, which is still limited to heterosexual couples, but marked a shift toward the recognition of 2SLGBTQ+ parenting rights. Nor does it change a 2024 ruling that made it illegal for couples to go abroad to have a baby via surrogacy — which activists say is meant to target same-sex partners. Since taking office in 2022, Meloni has pursued a highly conservative social agenda, looking to promote what she sees as "traditional family values," making it progressively harder for LGBTQ+ couples to become legal parents. Experts say the anti-surrogacy movement is rapidly gaining momentum among the newly empowered far-right parties of Europe. These narratives have also gained hold in Poland, Spain and even progressive Sweden, where politicians who have taken similar lines on surrogacy and LGBTQ+ parental rights have been met with broad support. Last month, the Spanish government banned its embassies and consulates from registering children born through surrogates in foreign countries.
