TRENDING RUMORS
- Juventus general manager Damien Comolli will look to see if a move for Bernardo Silva is possible when the midfielder's Manchester City contract expires in the summer, Tuttosport reports. The Bianconeri have taken inspiration from AC Milan and Napoli's moves for Luka Modric and Kevin De Bruyne respectively. They expect competition for the 31-year-old from clubs in Europe (including his former club Benfica), the United States and the United Arab Emirates and hope the Portugal international will maintain his desire to play at the top level.
- Manchester City are considering a shock move for Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, according to TEAMtalk. The report adds that the 20-year-old is also on the radar of Chelsea and Newcastle United. Mainoo wanted to leave Old Trafford on loan in January due to his frustration over a lack of game time under Ruben Amorim, but the Red Devils were unwilling to let that happen. TEAMtalk reports that England international Mainoo, who has another two years to run on his existing contract at Old Trafford, could be worth as much as £70 million on the transfer market.
- Following La Gazzetta dello Sport's report on Real Madrid's plan to re-sign attacking midfielder Nico Paz from Como, the Italian outlet has given an insight into the clauses that could allow the move to happen. The option to bring back the 21-year-old for €9 million has already passed, but they could sign him for €10 million in 2026 or €11 million in 2027, while Los Blancos would also earn half of the fee from a transfer to another club and have the opportunity to match any offers received by Como.
- Manchester United's latest financial results have boosted their hopes of signing Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Carlos Baleba, the Daily Mirror reports. On Wednesday, United revealed record revenues of £666.5 million for last season but still reported a loss of £33 million for the financial year. Those figures put them in a healthier position when it comes to complying with Premier League's Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR), and allows them to make plans for more significant signings. United had bene interested in a move for Baleba in the summer, but were put off by Brighton's asking price of around £100 million for the 21-year-old.
