TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United are contemplating a move to sign Italy and Atalanta defender Giorgio Scalvini, according to The Sun. Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur, and a number of clubs from Serie A, are also keen on the 21-year-old whose transfer is valued at around €55 million. Scalvini has emerged as one of the most sought after players in Serie A after having made 107 senior appearances for Atalanta. Ruben Amorim is looking to bolster his defense but could face a stumbling block, with Newcastle hoping Sandro Tonali, Scalvini’s international teammate, could hand them an advantage in the race for his signature.
– Man United winger Alejandro Garnacho has rejected a lucrative move to join Cristiano Ronaldo at Al Nassr, according to The Telegraph. Garnacho, 21, is set to leave Old Trafford after falling out with Amorim, but is keen to stay in Europe and is prioritizing a transfer to a Premier League club. Man United are looking to trim their squad before they can make further additions, but Chelsea are the only club from England to express an interest and they have already signed Jamie Gittens. Napoli have also been linked.
– West Ham United are looking to reinvest some of the £55m made from the exit of Mohammed Kudus to Spurs with a move for Liverpool midfielder Harvey Elliott. The Guardian says that the Hammers believe they can tempt the England under-21 star to London with the promise of more game time, but are yet to submit a formal bid and could face competition from RB Leipzig. Hammers boss Graham Potter is looking to freshen his squad and believes Elliott, who can play anywhere across the midfield, is an ideal reinforcement, while the club are also closing on a deal for Slavia Prague left back El Hadji Malick Diouf.
– Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is keen to sort out his future as soon as possible, and Mundo Deportivo reports that he remains committed to a move to Barcelona after turning down a £40m offer from Saudi Arabia over the weekend. The 27-year-old passed on the lucrative switch in the hope that he can get his preferred transfer to Camp Nou as soon as possible. Rashford is prepared to lower his salary in an effort to facilitate his exit from United, though a loan move with a permanent option could be enough to seal the switch.
– Manchester City midfielder James McAtee is set to meet with officials from Eintracht Frankfurt over the possibility of a move to Germany this week, according to Florian Plettenberg. Borussia Dortmund are also interested in the 22-year-old, who is keen to pursue a move to Germany in light of the success found by both Jude Bellingham and Jadon Sancho in the Bundesliga in recent years. Eintracht Frankfurt are also able to offer McAtee the chance to play Champions League football after finishing third last season.
