TRENDING RUMORS
– Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have made contact with Josko Gvardiol‘s representatives over a possible transfer switch, but face a battle to land the Manchester City star, according to TEAMtalk. The two clubs are reportedly “huge admirers” of the 24-year-old defender, who has missed much of the season due to a broken leg. City are keen to open contract talks with Gvardiol in the near future with his deal having two years left to run.
– Tottenham Hotspur have stalled in contract talks with defender Micky van de Ven, reports Football Insider. Liverpool and Barcelona have reportedly been monitoring the defender’s availability. Van de Ven’s contract still has three years remaining. Spurs had planned to sit down for contract talks before the end of the season, but the defender has delayed negotiations with the club still in danger of being relegated from the Premier League.
– Chelsea striker João Pedro would be keen to join Barcelona if they should make an offer for him this summer. Spanish outlet Sport reports that the 24-year-old has emerged as an alternative to Atlético Madrid’s Julián Álvarez. Chelsea reportedly face the possibility of struggling to keep key players if they miss out on European football next season. Pedro has enjoyed a superb debut season at Chelsea, with 20 goals and nine assists in all competitions since joining from Brighton & Hove Albion last summer.
– Juventus are showing interest in former Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea this summer, according to Corriere dello Sport. De Gea is playing for Fiorentina and is reportedly committed to staying in Florence, though it’s unclear if an offer from Juventus could change that. Juventus have also been linked with a move for Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who is entering the final year of his contract at Anfield.
– Manchester United and Crystal Palace have shown interest in AC Milan defender Strahinja Pavlovic, reports Gazzetta dello Sport.

Any transfer for Pavlovic is valued at €40 million AC Milan, though they hold a stance of no exit coming into the summer.
