CURRENT TRANSFER SPECULATION

– Reports from TeamTalk indicate that Paris Saint-Germain holds an interest in Manchester City’s forward, Erling Haaland. Sources suggest that PSG has initiated several discussions to inquire about the potential availability of the 25-year-old in the future, requesting that the English top-flight club inform them if a transfer opportunity arises. This pursuit of Haaland is reportedly separate from the ongoing contractual discussions concerning Ousmane Dembélé, whose new deal remains unsigned. Furthermore, it’s been stated that Dembele’s agents have communicated with Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Arsenal to gauge their interest in a potential move.

– According to Sport Bild, Manchester City and Barcelona are closely monitoring Eintracht Frankfurt’s left-sided defender, Nathaniel Brown, though his current team is expected to seek no less than €65 million for any transfer. The 22-year-old has been connected with numerous European teams this campaign, having been involved in seven goals across 21 appearances in the Bundesliga.

– An offer for unattached player Philippe Coutinho is being prepared by LA Galaxy. Diario AS details that the Major League Soccer outfit intends to commence negotiations with the agents of the 33-year-old, who confirmed his departure from Vasco de Gama earlier this week due to increasing fan discontent. The Galaxy aims to strengthen their roster as they face another season without their midfielder, Riqui Puig. The 26-year-old has been sidelined due to a torn ACL suffered in November 2024, with his return to play not anticipated until 2027.

– According to Diario Sport, Barcelona continues to show strong interest in Atlético Madrid attacker, Julián Álvarez. The 26-year-old is reportedly high on the club’s desired list as they plan to acquire a new forward, though there’s an acknowledgment that completing a transfer might be challenging. Concurrently, Tuttosport indicates that Juventus’s frontman, Dusan Vlahovic, favors a transfer to Barça, despite attention from Premier League teams and AC Milan; however, a move to Camp Nou appears contingent on Barcelona not securing their primary targets. Vlahovic, also 26, will see his contract expire at the end of the current season.

– Reports from TeamTalk suggest that Atlético Madrid is showing interest in Manchester City’s attacking midfielder, Bernardo Silva. The LaLiga side is said to be among the newest clubs eyeing the 31-year-old, who is also being monitored by Juventus and Barcelona. Silva joined the Etihad Stadium from Monaco in 2017, and with his current deal finishing this summer, there have also been connections made to a possible transfer to the Saudi Pro League.
