TRENDING RUMORS
– Arsenal are continuing to monitor Leroy Sané’s situation at Bayern Munich with the winger’s current contract ending in the summer, reports Florian Plettenberg, although the Sky Sports Deutschland journalist reiterates that the 28-year-old’s focus is on staying at the German giants. Manchester United are also among the clubs keeping an eye on the former Manchester City winger.
– Arsenal are better placed to sign Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres than Manchester United, claims Football Transfers, despite the fact that Leões boss Rúben Amorim is heading to Old Trafford later this month. It has also been reported by The Telegraph that the 26-year-old could be available for £63m, a sum that is £20m less than his release clause — a figure that has seen Chelsea join the race for the former Coventry City striker.
– Liverpool are making good progress in contract talks with Virgil van Dijk but are still planning on signing a centre-back, according to TEAMtalk. Their shortlist now only consists of two names: Sevilla’s Loïc Badé and Crystal Palace’s Marc Guéhi. Regarding Van Dijk, the Reds are planning on extending the 33-year-old’s contract by two years.
– Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund, Atlético Madrid, AS Roma and Atalanta are all interested in Lille winger Edon Zhegrova, reports Calciomercato, which adds that the latter are the most serious as they prepare to lose Ademola Lookman. Juventus also looked at Zhegrova in the summer and it is felt that the Kosovo international’s valuation could fall ahead of next season, as his contract ends in 2026.
– Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, RB Leipzig and Bayer Leverkusen are all competing to sign Sporting CP winger Geovany Quenda, according to TEAMtalk. Juventus are also keeping a close eye on the 17-year-old’s progress after he impressed in the Champions League midweek, assisting Gyökeres’ first goal against Man City.
– There is a stalemate in contract negotiations between Napoli and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, says Calciomercato, although there will soon be new meetings to try to find a solution. The 23-year-old’s agent has asked for €8m per season while Napoli are stuck at €5m. A move could happen in the summer if a deal isn’t agreed, although Gli Azzurri aren’t currently considering that and would demand a high fee.
