TRENDING RUMORS
– Barcelona are admirers of Borussia Dortmund forward Karim Adeyemi, says Sky Switzerland. Adeyemi, 23, could emerge as a concrete target next summer, as he will be entering the final year of his current deal, and Barca are keeping tabs on his development in the Bundesliga. The Germany international has had a solid start to the new season, with three goal involvements from his first six league games and could replace 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski long term.
– Bayern Munich are looking at a deal to sign Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi, according to Sky Germany. Initial talks with the player’s representatives have already taken place, as the Bundesliga champions eye a free transfer in 2026 amid competition from Liverpool, Barcelona and Real Madrid. But Bayern’s pursuit of Guéhi could hinge upon the futures of Dayot Upamecano and Kim Min-Jae, both of whom may leave the club next summer.
– Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo is still looking for an exit and could move to Napoli on loan, according to Sky Switzerland. Mainoo, 20, is still highly rated after making the breakthrough into the United first team a few years ago, but his career has nosedived under new manager Ruben Amorim and his contract expires in 2027. The England international could head out on loan in January for more game time, and a move to Napoli would see him link up with former United midfielder Scott McTominay, who has thrived in Italy.
– Crystal Palace are planning to offer midfielder Adam Wharton an improved contract with a release clause to ward off interest from Liverpool and Real Madrid, The Daily Mail reports. The 21-year-old is also being tracked by the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City, following an impressive start to the season with Palace, and his club would want a fee upwards of £75 million given his contract expires in June 2029.
– Real Madrid are keen to retain midfielder Arda Güler in January, despite strong interest from Newcastle United and Arsenal, says Football Insider. Having become an important member of Xabi Alonso’s Los Blancos squad this season — with three goals in LaLiga already — a move to the Premier League is off the table for the 20-year-old Turkey international.
