TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United are looking at Paris Saint-Germain‘s Nuno Mendes, Bayern Munich‘s Alphonso Davies and AFC Bournemouth‘s Milos Kerkez as new manager Ruben Amorim looks to strengthen at left wing-back, reports the Daily Mail. This comes with injury concerns over Tyrell Malacia and Luke Shaw, although the latter may be utilised at left centre-back in Amorim’s preferred 3-4-3 system.
– Ajax Amsterdam‘s Devyne Rensch has been monitored by Barcelona in recent months as they aim to strengthen at full-back ahead of next season, reports Diario Sport, with the 21-year-old’s contract ending in the summer. Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool also want Rensch and Ajax have offered him a renewal, while the Blaugrana are also keeping an eye on Almeria‘s Marc Pubill.
– Lille striker Jonathan David has publicly declared that he would like to join Barcelona, but Diario Sport have suggested that the Blaugrana have doubts about bringing in the 24-year-old. That is because it is expected that a four-year contract, the signing bonus and commission would total €80 miilion and the Canada international wouldn’t be an undisputed starter due to the presence of Robert Lewandowski. Even so, they appreciate David’s statement and could make a move if he makes a financial compromise.
– Florian Plettenberg states that Randal Kolo Muani would like to stay at Paris Saint-Germain, but a loan or permanent departure in January isn’t off the table for the striker. Les Parisiens are open to letting the 25-year-old leave and there have been enquiries, although no final decision has been made yet.
– Napoli, AC Milan and Lazio all want to sign Empoli midfielder Jacopo Fazzini, reports Calciomercato, which adds that it would take €13m to bring in the 21-year-old. Gli Azzurri are currently the frontrunners to sign him and want him in January, while Lazio would look for a summer transfer. Napoli and Juventus also like Empoli centre-back Adrian Ismajli.
– Newcastle United are working on a deal to sign Benfica centre-back Tomás Araújo, according to Football Insider, with the 22-year-old also receiving interest from other clubs across Europe. That has been a position of interest for the Magpies since the summer after they failed to sign Marc Guéhi from Crystal Palace.
