TRENDING RUMORS

- Arsenal could make a move to try and sign Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović in January, reports TEAMtalk. The 24-year-old's Juve contract is set to expire in 2026, which could allow interested clubs to sign him for a cut-price fee. While Arsenal also admire Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, Vlahović is viewed as a more "gettable target" who could be available for as little as $68.5 million in January.

- Manchester United could be persuaded to let Lisandro Martínez leave the club if Real Madrid step up their interest in the defender, talkSPORT has reported. The 2022 FIFA World Cup winner is one of several Premier League stars being tracked by Los Blancos, with Trent Alexander-Arnold also on their shortlist.

- Talks are ongoing between Manchester United and Cerro Porteño over a move for defender Diego León, reports Ben Jacobs. It is reported that an offer worth $5m plus add-ons could be enough to land the 17-year-old amid optimism that an agreement could be reached between both clubs soon. León is the latest star from Paraguay to be linked with a move to the Premier League after Brighton & Hove Albion signed Diego Gomez from Inter Miami on Tuesday.

- Nico Williams has expressed his desire to join Barcelona and is "sending signals" to the Catalan giants, reports Sport. The Athletic Club winger was heavily linked with a move to Barça in the summer, but the absence of a guaranteed registration fee saw negotiations break down between the player and the club. The 21-year-old now has "more interest" in making the switch, although Barcelona are said to be looking at alternative transfer options.

- Newcastle United and Italy international midfielder Sandro Tonali wants to return to Serie A, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. AC Milan are reported to be open to reuniting with the 24-year-old, and while they could face competition from Internazionale and Juventus, it is believed that Tonali would need to be willing to lower his current €9m-per-season salary to make any deal possible. He has seen seven of his 13 Premier League appearances come from the bench so far this season.
