TRENDING RUMORS
– Oleksandr Zinchenko is expected to leave Arsenal before the end of the transfer window, reports the Daily Telegraph. Borussia Dortmund are at the front of the queue for the 28-year-old’s signature amid plans to reinforce their squad at left-back after previously holding interest in Chelsea‘s Renato Veiga. Zinchenko arrived in north London for a fee of £30 million from Manchester City in the summer of 2022. However, The Sun reports that Dortmund could also offer Ben Chilwell an escape route from Chelsea to add to the position.
– PSV Eindhoven have no plans to off-load U.S. men’s national team striker Ricardo Pepi as negotiations over a new contract continue, according to AS. Multiple teams in the Premier League are reported to have “sounded out” a move for the 22-year-old, but the Eredivisie club believe they could demand more in the summer following his recent positive form, scoring seven goals in his past 10 matches across all competitions. Pepi is open to staying put, but the striker wants to be made an important part of their project.
– There is no interest in Bayern Munich midfielder Joshua Kimmich from Real Madrid, according to Marca. Despite reports that the 29-year-old was being considered as a potential addition at the Santiago Bernabeu, Los Blancos are focusing only on Liverpool defender Trent Alexander-Arnold. They have no intention of pursuing other options if they fail to land Alexander-Arnold this month. Kimmich’s representatives are still in talks with the Bundesliga side over a contract extension, with his deal set to expire in 2026.
– Manchester City remain interested in Atalanta midfielder Éderson, but they are unlikely to be able to land him in this transfer window, according to Sky Sports. The 25-year-old is one of the club’s top options as they continue to look for a long-term successor for Rodri, but with La Dea competing for the Serie A title, they have no plans to part ways with one of their key players in the middle of the season.
– Benfica left-back Álvaro Carreras has made it clear to Barcelona and Real Madrid that he’s not interested in a transfer during this window, reports Diario AS. The 21-year-old, who came through the ranks at Manchester United but failed to make a Premier League appearance, impressed in Benfica’s Champions League game against Barcelona this week. The Spain under-21 international has a contract through to 2029 and a €50m release clause.
