TRENDING RUMORS

– Manchester United are interested in signing Bayern Munich left back Alphonso Davies, as reported by Bild’s Christian Falk. United want to bring in competition for Luke Shaw and Patrick Dorgu, with Tyrell Malacia expected to leave. Davies, 25, snubbed a move to Real Madrid when signed a new contract until 2030 last year, but Bayern could now be willing to listen to offers for the Canada international due to his recent injury record, as he is currently out with a hamstring injury just two months after returning from a cruciate ligament tear. However, the Red Devils haven’t made a concrete offer yet despite their long-term interest.

– Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernández is open to joining Real Madrid and would consider it a dream move, reports TalkSPORT. Fernandez, 25, cast doubt over his future last week and he has been linked with Los Blancos, Paris Saint-Germain and Al Ittihad, though the Argentina international doesn’t want to move to Saudi Arabia at this stage of his career. Fernandez was reported to be disappointed by the manner of former Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca’s exit and is ready to leave this summer, with a switch to LaLiga being his first choice.

– Arsenal are doing extensive groundwork over the signing of Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi but Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea are also keen, according to TEAMtalk. Bouaddi has already made 90 appearances for the Ligue 1 club, despite only being 18, and scouts from the Gunners and Liverpool were in attendance for Lille’s 2-1 win against Marseille.

– Barcelona are monitoring Juventus left back Andrea Cambiaso, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. Luciano Spalletti sees the 26-year-old as a key player and he has a contract that runs until 2029, so Juve value his transfer at €50 million and are unlikely to consider any offers under that figure. Cambiaso has previously been linked with Manchester City but an approach from Barcelona could tempt him.

– Talks have already taken place between Borussia Dortmund and the representatives of Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho, says Sky Sports Deutschland. BVB president Hans-Joachim Watzke is the driving force behind the Bundesliga club’s efforts to bring Sancho back to club, just five years after letting him move to Old Trafford for €85 million. Sancho, 25, hasn’t settled at United and has been on loan at Dortmund, Chelsea and now Aston Villa. He is out of contract in the summer and has received numerous offers, while Dortmund believe the winger would be willing to take a pay cut to re-join them.
