TRENDING RUMORS

– Al Nassr are in advanced talks with Manchester United to sign Casemiro. The 33-year-old has one year left on his contract at Old Trafford, but the Red Devils would like to get his £350,000-a-week salary off their wage bill. The Brazil international has struggled for form since moving to the Premier League in 2022. Should the move materialise, Casemiro would be reunited with Cristiano Ronaldo, who he has played with at both Real Madrid and Man United. (Record)

– Juventus are in talks with Manchester United over a deal for Jadon Sancho, and could offer striker Dusan Vlahovic as part of the deal, Gazzetta dello Sport reports. Sancho, 25, is said to be receptive to the move, and sees Juve as a prestigious club. The winger would be prepared to take a cut in salary for a significant role in the squad. Vlahovic, meanwhile, is about to enter the final year of his contract and has rejected offers from Turkey and Saudi Arabia. Man United would be able to offer the Serbia international the kind of wage he is looking for, but not European football. Gazzetta also suggests Man United could ask about central midfielder Douglas Luiz, who is available for transfer after failing to impress after a €50m transfer from Aston Villa last summer. However, Turkish outlet Sabah Spor reports Sancho has agreed to join Jose Mourinho’s Fenerbahce for €15m on a contract worth £8.5m per year.

– Arsenal are interested in Chelsea and England international winger Noni Madueke, reports the Independent. The Gunners have reportedly discussed a swoop for the 23-year-old after struggling to make a breakthrough in talks for RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, and the Blues would be open to parting ways with Madueke if they receive an offer worth £50 million. Madueke directly contributed to 10 goals in 32 Premier League matches last season.

– A player-swap deal is being explored by Chelsea and Manchester United involving forward Christopher Nkunku and winger Alejandro Garnacho, reports the Daily Telegraph. Both players are keen to leave their respective clubs and are “weighing up” the move this summer. Garnacho, 20, has been strongly linked with an exit from Old Trafford and appears to be out of manager Ruben Amorim’s plans. The 27-year-old Nkunku has struggled to establish himself as a starter at Stamford Bridge, with 18 of his 27 Premier League appearances coming from the bench in the last campaign.

– Tottenham Hotspur are looking in a move for Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze, according to The Sun. The 26-year-old is open to the move with a chance to play in the Champions League, but Spurs face competition from other clubs in the Premier League. A release clause in Eze’s contract allows him to be signed for a fee in the region of £60m.
