TRENDING RUMORS
– Paris Saint-Germain are closing in on a deal to sign Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier, L’Equipe reports. Only the final details now need to be resolved between the two French clubs, with the final transfer fee expected to reach at least €40 million. The 23-year-old’s arrival could open to door for Gianluigi Donnarumma to leave the club this summer, with his contract having just a year left to run. According to L’Equipe, Manchester City and Manchester United have been tracking the Italy international’s situation ever since the end of the last European season, when he helped PSG win the UEFA Champions League and reach the FIFA Club World Cup final.
– Liverpool are among a host of clubs around Europe who have enquired about young Metz striker Idrissa Gueye, Football Insider reports. The 18-year-old’s five goals in 17 league appearances last season helped his side win promotion up to Ligue 1. Bundesliga clubs Borussia Dortmund and Eintracht Frankfurt, Serie A sides Internazionale and Atalanta, and Premier League teams including Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace and West Ham United have all registered their interest in the Senegal international.
– The futures of five Real Madrid players are “up in the air” with David Alaba, Ferland Mendy, Rodrygo, Dani Ceballos and Endrick as having doubts over their plans for next season, AS reports. Alaba doesn’t want to leave, the newspaper says, and Mendy is behind Fran García and Álvaro Carreras at left-back. The club believe Ceballos should stay to provide cover in midfield, while Rodrygo’s is one of the sagas of the summer, and Endrick would prefer to stay, but might have to accept a loan if he wants regular football.
– João Félix‘s proposed move from Chelsea to Al Nassr is now at the “final stages,” according to Fabrizio Romano. The transfer is set to be permanent, although it remains to be seen what the final fee will be. The two clubs are now finalizing terms, with Félix having approved the switch over the weekend. The 25-year-old had looked destined to rejoin his former club Benfica, whom he last played for in 2019. However, Al Nassr moved quickly to gazump the Portuguese giants, and add the forward to their roster of stars which includes Cristiano Ronaldo. Félix’s most recent senior appearances came for AC Milan during a loan spell last season, where he scored twice in 15 Serie A matches.
– Atlético Madrid are now pushing to sign Stuttgart star Enzo Millot, according to Sky Sports Deutschland. The Frenchman has a release clause in his contract of just €23 million, following an impressive Bundesliga campaign. Madrid have been given the green light by Stuttgart to negotiate directly with the player, who was absent from his side’s most recent friendly match. By contrast, Galatasaray’s efforts to sign Millot are now said to be over, as a move was never advanced. The 23-year-old has represented France at Under-21 level six times.
