The Italian manager has been busy this summer, welcoming Omar Marmoush to the club from Manchester City on Thursday, and is preparing to involve him in Saturday's home game against Newcastle. Spurs have also been linked with a move for Liverpool's Cody Gakpo. De Zerbi is open to trimming his squad, mentioning midfielder Pape Sarr as one possible departure, and is waiting to see what happens with him in the final day of the market.

De Zerbi's comments suggest that he is still pushing for one final signing, and is willing to make outgoing deals if necessary. The transfer market has exceeded his expectations, and he is confident that they can find the right player to strengthen their squad.
