TRENDING RUMORS
– AS Roma is preparing to approach Marseille to acquire Mason Greenwood, as reported by Corriere dello Sport. The 24-year-old Greenwood has revamped his career in France following previous issues during his time at Manchester United in 2022, scoring 26 goals in 45 appearances last season. Roma is prepared to offer €40 million upfront for Greenwood, along with a clause that ensures Marseille will receive a percentage of his subsequent transfer.
– Both Real Madrid and Arsenal are reportedly believing that Manchester United is set to sign West Ham United midfielder Mateus Fernandes, leading them to explore alternative options, as noted by The Sun. West Ham is asking for £80 million for Fernandes, but United is hoping to negotiate a lower fee after the Hammers faced relegation from the Premier League. The 21-year-old Portuguese international has emerged as a primary target, alongside the forthcoming £35 million signing of Éderson from Atalanta. Additionally, Nottingham Forest’s Elliot Anderson is anticipated to move to Manchester City.
– Both Arsenal and Manchester City are eyeing Sandro Tonali, a midfielder from Newcastle United, according to Nicolo Schira. Newcastle reportedly wants £100 million for the 26-year-old, who had a strong performance this past season despite the club’s 12th-place finish in the Premier League and Italy’s failure to qualify for the World Cup. Tonali is also linked with Manchester United and AC Milan, although it appears United has scaled back its interest.
– Barcelona is contemplating shifting their focus to AFC Bournemouth striker Junior Kroupi as a potential backup option to Atlético Madrid’s Julián Álvarez, as per reports from Sport. While Alvarez remains the top priority for the Blaugrana, they are unwilling to meet Bournemouth’s asking price of over €100 million for the 19-year-old Kroupi. A potential player exchange could lower the cost, although Barcelona is cautious about investing heavily in a young talent amid interest from Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.
– Bayern Munich’s planned deal for Nathaniel Brown, a left back from Eintracht Frankfurt, could amount to €55 million, per reports from Florian Plettenberg. Ongoing discussions are centered around the deal’s structure, particularly the allocation of fixed and variable payments. Agreements are in place for a quick medical examination. The 22-year-old recently netted his first international goal in Germany’s commanding 7-1 victory over Curacao on Sunday.
