TRENDING RUMORS
– Real Madrid are weighing up an approach for Arsenal defender Riccardo Calafiori, amid their ongoing presidential election campaign, per Nicolo Schira. The LaLiga club have reportedly made an inquiry for the 24-year-old this week, with expected new head coach Jose Mourinho having worked with him during a spell at Roma and keen to be reunited. Calafiori played a key role in helping the Gunners win the Premier League title, having made 22 starts from 26 appearances last season, and remains contracted at the Emirates Stadium until the summer of 2029.
– Bayern Munich are looking at signing PSV Eindhoven and USMNT full back Sergiño Dest, according to Eindhovens Dagblad. The 25-year-old is reported to be one of the players on the shortlist of the Bundesliga champions, who are also closing in on a move for his club teammate Ismael Saibari, 25. A deal for Dest would reportedly require an offer worth in the region of €25m, while Sport says that Barcelona would be entitled to 20% of any future transfer fee.
– Manchester United are interested in signing Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni, according to The Times. The 26-year-old has been identified as a midfield reinforcement this summer, and could join Atalanta’s Éderson after a £35 million deal for the Brazil international was agreed. Tchouameni, who joined Los Blancos for €80 million from AS Monaco in 2022, made 33 starts in LaLiga last season, but continues to be linked with an exit.
– Paris Saint-Germain are leading the race to sign Lokomotiv Moscow attacking midfielder Alexey Batrakov, says TEAMtalk. PSG are one of several sides to have scouted the 20-year-old this season, but with Premier League teams facing difficulty in signing Russian players due to United Kingdom sanctions, it seems Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City look set to miss out on him. Batrakov scored 13 goals and provided 10 assists in 28 Russian Premier League games last season.
– Real Madrid, Chelsea, Borussia Dortmund and Newcastle United are among the teams tracking AIK winger Zadok Yohanna, according to The Daily Mail. The two European giants are reportedly among multiple teams lining up to land the 18-year-old, who attracted scouts from 32 different clubs during the 1-1 draw with Kalmar FF in April. Yohanna directly contributed to nine goals in 12 games across all competitions last season, and any deal is expected to require an offer worth around £20 million
