In late July 2026, several Italian lower-division sports clubs managed roster changes through player departures. Basket Team Pizzighettone announced that forwards Nicolò Biondi and Matteo Pozzetti would leave the club, with Biondi moving to Soresinese 06 and Pozzetti joining a Serie DR1 side. Additionally, Calcio Lecco 1912 confirmed the permanent transfer of midfielder Niccolò Zanellato to Casarano Calcio.

By mid-August 2026, clubs shifted focus toward new acquisitions and internal promotions. Treviso FBC signed midfielder Alessio Lombardi on a permanent basis following his time with L’Aquila 1927. In volleyball, La Picco Lecco promoted libero Rebecca Toppio to the first team.
