RUMORS ON THE MOVE
– Manchester United is reportedly considering a bid for
Federico Valverde of
Real Madrid, as indicated by
The Daily Mirror. The Red Devils may make an offer around €80 million following a reported confrontation with manager Xabi Alonso, though this is expected to fall below Real Madrid’s asking price of over €100 million, given Valverde’s contract runs until 2029.
– Paris Saint-Germain is eyeing
Marcus Rashford, who is on loan at
Barcelona, according to
Football Insider. The 28-year-old has shown impressive form with six goals and seven assists in 18 matches since his arrival in Spain. PSG is closely monitoring Rashford’s status and may pursue him if Barcelona doesn’t secure a permanent deal at the €35 million release clause.
– Teams such as Liverpool,
Manchester City, and
Tottenham Hotspur are interested in
Iliman Ndiaye of
Everton, as reported by
Footmercato. The trio of Premier League clubs has reportedly made initial contact regarding potential transfers for the 25-year-old, who has scored four goals in 13 league appearances this season since joining Everton from Marseille in 2024 for approximately €20 million.
– Bayern Munich and Barcelona are monitoring
Souza, a fullback from Santos who resembles the playing style of former Real Madrid and Brazil star
Marcelo. Reports from
Diario AS suggest that Barcelona showed interest over the summer. Santos may consider offers around €15 million, but they prefer to hold off on discussions until after the current season.
– Aston Villa is reportedly planning to acquire
Igor Thiago from
Brentford, as indicated by
The Daily Mirror. The 24-year-old striker is viewed as a potential long-term successor for
Ollie Watkins, and manager Unai Emery hopes Villa will present a £50 million offer. Thiago recently netted his eleventh goal of the Premier League campaign in a brace during the club’s 3-1 victory over
Burnley.
