5 d. ago Football transfer rumours: Newcastle in for Roma’s Dovbyk? Ederson to Galatasaray?

Today’s fluff is singing when it’s fishingToday’s tittle-tattle starts with a Manchester club scrabbling around to resolve their goalkeeping situation. City’s Ederson continues to attract interest from Galatasaray, and a move could unlock the departure of Gianluigi Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain to the Etihad, Sky Sports reports. Donnarumma’s people, PSG’s people and City’s people have been in contact to thrash out possible details, and further agreeable lunches are anticipated. As for Ederson, City say they want to keep him as well but while Al-Nassr’s interest in the Brazilian appears to have cooled Galatasaray remain keen and a deal could yet happen.Thursday’s Newcastle striker talk has them moving for Roma’s Artem Dovbyk, initially on loan. The Serie A club are reportedly open to the move becoming permanent but would want at least €30m for the Ukraine international, and a purchase obligation clause in the small print of any loan deal.

For more than nine months, mass student-led protests in Serbia have been challenging the authoritarian rule of Aleksandar Vučić, who has been in office as prime minister and president for 11 years.
