Trending rumors
– Manchester United are targeting two young players in the form of Club Brugge left back Joaquin Seys and Leicester City wonderkid Louis Page. Seys, 21, has caught the eye of Arsenal, Aston Villa, Newcastle, Benfica and FC Porto, but The Sun claims that United are front of the queue as they look to add depth to their defense. Meanwhile, United are also actively working on a deal to sign 18-year-old midfielder Page from Leicester, reports the BBC. Talks over a fee for the transfer are underway, as Page continues to work his way into the senior setup, while Arsenal and Aston Villa have also been credited with interest in the midfielder, who made five starts for the Foxes last season.
– Liverpool could let forward Cody Gakpo leave if they sign Bradley Barcola or Ibrahim Mbaye from Paris Saint-Germain, says Football Insider. Gakpo, 27, is reported to be unhappy at the sacking of Arne Slot and is ready to move on from Anfield if a deal of around £70 million can be agreed. Tottenham Hotspur have shown the most interest but Liverpool are already short in wide areas after the departure of Mohamed Salah to Trabzonspor, so would need to sign some new additions first.
– One thing that could help that along is the fact Paris Saint-Germain are confident of sealing a deal for Mika Godts from Ajax, according to Nicolo Schira. Personal terms are claimed to be agreed for the Belgium forward, who has agreed a contract until 2031. Ajax want a fee of €55 million for PSG to sign the 21-year-old, who scored 18 goals and assisted 18 across all competitions last season.
– Newcastle United are showing interest in João Palhinha as a potential midfield addition before the summer window closes. The Daily Mail reports that the Bayern Munich star has become an option for the Magpies, following the key exits of Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimarães. Palhinha is free to leave Bayern this summer, after failing to secure a permanent switch to Tottenham at the end of his loan spell there last season. While Newcastle have shortlisted the Portugal international, Aston Villa are also interested.
– Galatasaray deem the €50 million valuation set by AC Milan for the transfer of winger Rafael Leão to be too high, according to Nicolo Schira. The Turkish Super Lig team have been in talks with Milan about a deal, after the Portugal international admitted he would like a new challenge. However talks appear to have been shelved in a disagreement over the final fee, but a return to the negotiation table has not been ruled out for later in the transfer window.
