6 h. ago Football transfer rumours: Real Madrid plot move for Myles Lewis

Today’s rumours are starting to feel the heatReal Madrid might be the biggest successful side in Europe but that doesn’t mean they are too big for a bargain. David Alaba, Kylian Mbappé, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Tony Rüdiger and Steve McManaman have all moved to the Bernabéu on a free transfer in the past and now the Spanish giants are reportedly targeting another soon-to-be out-of-contract star. Myles Lewis-Skelly had a breakthrough year at Arsenal last season but, with his current deal expiring next summer, he would be free to talk to foreign clubs in January. The Gunners are said to be “relaxed” about the contract situation but this would not be the first time they have been gazumped by a Spanish rival.Another elite full-back but at the tail end of his career, Kyle Walker, is garnering interest from Everton after being left out of Manchester City’s Club World Cup squad. José Mourinho and Fenerbahce have already submitted an offer for the 34-year-old but the opportunity to stay in t...

4 d. ago Football transfer rumours: Garnacho off to Villa? Spurs in for Mbeumo?

Today’s rumours are eyeing the weekendAlejandro Garnacho will be allowed to leave Manchester United this summer if the price is right. One surprising potential suitor is Aston Villa, who could make a move for the winger. They took Marcus Rashford on loan from Old Trafford last season, revitalising his career somewhat in the progress, so Garnacho may feel it is a move in the right direction away from the current dead end.It will be a busy summer at United as Ruben Amorim attempts to assemble a squad that has the vague chance of fitting into his 3-4-3 constraints. One key area where improvement is required is centre-forward. A potential plan to source an actual goalscorer could see United offer up Joshua Zirkzee to Napoli as part of a deal for Victor Osimhen. There could, however, be some very serious competition for the Nigerian as Liverpool may also fancy a nibble. Continue reading...

5 d. ago Football transfer rumours: Liverpool to spend £100m on PSG’s Bradley Barcola?

Today’s rumours are ingratiating mothersIt is a wingers special for today’s tittle-tattle. Starting with Liverpool’s willingness to splash £100m on Paris Saint-Germain’s Bradley Barcola. Arne Slot has already signed Jeremie Frimpong and is set to add creativity in the form of Florian Wirtz. Naturally, there is not a bottomless pit of cash at Anfield, so they would be open to selling Luis Díaz, Diogo Jota and Darwin Núñez to fund the spending.After it was confirmed that Jadon Sancho will not be joining Chelsea permanently, his next move is a hot topic of conversation. Manchester United will be quite eager to earn some cash in exchange for the winger, so the prospect of Aston Villa, Newcastle and Tottenham are considering a potential move for the 25-year-old.

7 d. ago Football transfer rumours: Gittens to Chelsea before first deadline closes?

This stuff is just looking for somethingThe summer’s first transfer window will close on Tuesday night at 7pm UK time ahead of the Fifa Club World Cup so watch out for some last-minute jobs to fill up squads for Gianni Infantino’s folly. Will Manchester City get Rayan Cherki signed in time? Chelsea are after a keeper in Milan’s Mike Maignan and want to add Jamie Gittens of Borussia Dortmund to their winger collection. Both deals may go to the wire.When Bournemouth were flying high in mid-winter there was a fun game to play. Less fun if you were a Cherries fan, of course, but the game was to fit their unearthed gems with the clubs they would end up at. Dean Huijsen to Real Madrid was unexpected but then again Illia Zabarnyi to PSG, actual European champions, may well trump that. The club are prepared to sell, at the right price, but have demanded a £59m fee for the Ukrainian. Continue reading...

1 week ago Football transfer rumours: Arsenal target Rogers? Gyökeres and Cherki to Manchester?

Today’s rumours are feeling the envySix days into the first transfer window of the summer and the Mill is churning faster than a well-oiled machine. Leading the charge are Arsenal, whose Premier League sights has led them to add Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers and Feyenoord’s Igor Paixão to their shopping list of potential attacking targets. Getting Rogers would demand a significant fee – likely north of £50m – with the former Middlesbrough man pulling up trees for Unai Emery’s this season, scoring 14 goals and 15 assists in 54 games. Paixão would be the cheaper option for the north London outfit. The 24-year-old had an outstanding season in the Netherlands, scoring 16 and adding 14 assists in 34 league matches to be named Dutch footballer of the year.Manchester United have joined the lengthy list of clubs eyeing Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting. The Swede is apparently open to a move to Old Trafford despite the club not playing Champions League football next season. Ruben Amorim is report...

1 week ago Football transfer rumours: Arsenal and Liverpool to battle for Sesko’s signature?

Today’s fluff have a hint of deja vuWith the distraction of actual football finally over, the football fans among us are finally able to focus on what this is all really about: whether James Trafford will leave Burnley for Newcastle.The 22-year-old burst on to the scene when leaving Manchester City as the third most-expensive British goalkeeper in history, despite never having played in the Championship, never mind the Premier League. Newcastle tried to buy him last summer, but in true football is the winner style, instead sold Elliot Anderson to Nottingham Forest and took the Greek keeper Odysseas Vlachodimos in part exchange, thus helping satisfy PSR concerns. But now they’re back with a vengeance! Continue reading...

1 week ago Football transfer rumours: Son to leave Spurs? Reijnders to Manchester City?

Today’s fluff is making overturesAfter deciding they’d rather pay a £5m penalty fee to Manchester United than fulfil their obligation to make Jadon Sancho’s loan deal permanent, Chelsea are in the market for a different winger who blows more hot than cold. Sancho is believed to be the subject of interest from a trio of clubs in Saudi Arabia, with Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr and Al-Ittihad all believed to be interested in hosing him with money. With the future of Mykhailo Mudryk still shrouded in uncertainty after his provisional ban for allegedly testing positive for a banned substance, Enzo Maresca is expected to try to convince his employers to sign Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund. Elsewhere on the Chelsea radar, that lanky green blob you can see inching its way across the screen represents the Milan goalkeeper Mike Maignan, who is believed to be open to a move to Stamford Bridge and with his fabled good touch for a big man would constitute a significant upgrade on Robert Sánchez and ...

2 w. ago Football transfer rumours: Dortmund close on Jobe Bellingham signing?

Today’s whispers are learning about steel beamsBruno Fernandes is pretty much the only person to come out of Manchester United’s season with any credit, and it turns out that has got Al-Hilal’s scouting boffins very excited, so much so that the Saudi club have reportedly offered a £100m transfer fee and a total wage package of £200m over three years to land the Portuguese. That sort of money for a player who turns 31 in September is not bad going for any party (apart from Al-Hilal), but Fernandes has – according to Fabrizio Romano – rejected the move as he “wants to play at [the] top level in Europe”. There’s a joke there somewhere about Manchester United and the “top level in Europe” but the Mill isn’t going to stoop. Fernandes was pictured at the birthday party of João Cancelo, who plays for Al-Hilal, over the weekend and now both have joined up with the Portuguese national side for their Nations League semi-final against Germany on Wednesday evening.One man that could join Fernan...

2 w. ago Football transfer rumours: Manchester United to replace Fernandes with Gonçalves?

Today’s fluff is back in actionThe Rumour Mill is back in action, filtering absolutely nothing from the gossipmongers and pumping it straight into your eyes. To heighten the excitement, there is not one but two transfer windows this summer. You lucky lot.Matheus Cunha’s £62.5m move from Wolves has ignited what is to be a busy off-season for Ruben Amorim as he attempts to turn the Manchester United behemoth around. It could become somewhat more complicated if Bruno Fernandes decides he wants to test himself in jump ship to the Saudi Premier League with Al-Hilal. If that does become the case, one bit of tittle-tattle doing the rounds is that Amorim will return to his former employers to sign Pedro Gonçalves, who once had a gloriously forgettable spell at Wolves.
