TRENDING RUMORS
- Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak is open to the possibility of a move this summer, with Liverpool the frontrunners to sign him if he becomes available, sources have told ESPN. But the Independent claims that Chelsea are also interested in the Sweden international. Isak, 25, scored 23 goals in 34 Premier League games last season to become one of the most highly rated strikers in Europe. But Newcastle value his transfer at around £150 million. Though that's unlikely to stop big-spending Chelsea, even though they have already added Liam Delap and João Pedro to their strikeforce this summer.
- Manchester United are set to enter the race to sign RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko, says Bild's Christian Falk. United want a No. 9, but after interest in Liam Delap, Viktor Gyökeres and Hugo Ekitike came to nothing, sources have told ESPN that there's no guarantee a new striker will arrive before the transfer deadline. However, United's head of scouting Christopher Vivell used to work at Leipzig and knows Sesko well, while a transfer fee of around €70m could be enough to get a deal done now.
- Arsenal or Tottenham Hotspur could tempt midfielder João Palhinha away from Bayern Munich, as reported by Christian Falk. Palhinha, 30, is determined to make things work with Bayern, but the club see the situation differently, as he isn't a core part of Vincent Kompany's plans for the season. Despite Palhinha's reluctance to leave Bavaria, the prospect of joining either North London club and playing Champions League football could be enough for him to accept a departure.
- While Liverpool are closely monitoring Real Madrid winger Rodrygo's situation, Florian Plettenberg has stated that Paris Saint-Germain are doing the same. Les Parisiens have expressed their interest in the 24-year-old as they continue to look out for a top young winger. Whether they make a move will depend on opportunities during the window. Plettenberg has also suggested that any links between Tottenham Hotspur and Rodrygo are wide of the mark.
- Juventus have been struggling to offload striker Dusan Vlahovic, and reports from Gazzetta dello Sport have suggested that they could look to include the 25-year-old in a swap deal. The first option is for Vlahovic to join Atletico Madrid with defender Nahuel Molina, whom Los Colchoneros value at €30m, going the other way. The second possibility is that the Serbia international could join AC Milan as part of a swap for Malick Thiaw or more likely Strahinja Pavlovic.
