TRENDING RUMORS
– Liverpool are prioritizing a move for Real Madrid winger Rodrygo, according to TEAMtalk. The Reds reportedly see the 24-year-old as their No. 1 option to replace Luis Díaz as the Colombia international nears a €75 million move to Bayern Munich. But with belief that Los Blancos could demand a significant transfer fee worth close to €90m, the Anfield hierarchy are also lining up some alternatives. One of those is 20-year-old RB Leipzig and Norway international Antonio Nusa, while Lyon’s Malick Fofana, also 20, is another player on their radar.
– Al Nassr are interested in Chelsea left lack Marc Cucurella, reports Marca. The Saudi Pro League side are expected to make an “irresistible” offer to the 27-year-old, but the Blues could be reluctant to let him go due to his importance to manager Enzo Maresca. Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo‘s side are also keen on Manchester United winger Antony, according to UOL. The 25-year-old, recently on the radar of RB Leipzig and Leverkusen, is allowed to leave Old Trafford for £50m.
– Juventus are preparing an improved offer for Paris Saint-Germain striker Randal Kolo Muani amid belief that Manchester United could make an approach for him, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. There are reported to be “daily discussions” ongoing with PSG over a move for the 26-year-old, but the Bianconeri are now expected to advance the deal to avoid it being hijacked by the Red Devils. Kolo Muani scored eight goals in 16 Serie A matches last season, before scoring twice at the FIFA Club World Cup.
– Negotiations are continuing between Marseille and Juventus regarding a move for USMNT winger Timothy Weah, reports L’Equipe. The 25-year-old is reported to be keen on making the switch to the Ligue 1 club, who want Juve to lower their demands of around €22m for the mandatory permanent clause that is included in the loan deal. Weah, capped 44 times by the USMNT, directly contributed to seven goals in 30 Serie A appearances last season.
– Liverpool are ready to step up their efforts to sign Newcastle striker Alexander Isak this week, according to the Daily Mail. The Magpies are “braced” to receive an offer from the Reds, and with the 25-year-old interested in making the switch to Anfield, an approach worth “close to £150m” would reportedly be considered. Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano reports that there are no talks between Isak and clubs in Saudi Arabia despite speculation, as Liverpool prepare a record proposal for him.
