TRENDING RUMORS
– Arsenal and Real Madrid are keen on Bayer Leverkusen striker Christian Kofane. Florian Plettenberg says that the Gunners were impressed by the 19-year-old during their clash in the UEFA Champions League quarterfinals, while Los Blancos are also keeping tabs on his situation. Leverkusen would reportedly be willing to part ways with Kofane in the summer if they receive an offer in the region of €65 million. The young striker has directly contributed to eight goals in 23 Bundesliga matches this season.
– Manchester United are weighing up a move for Benfica left back Samuel Dahl, says Record. United have been linked with Arsenal’s Myles Lewis-Skelly and Bayern Munich‘s Alphonso Davies in recent weeks but Dahl, 23, represents a cheaper option and he has become a regular starter under Jose Mourinho this season. Meanwhile, United midfielder Manuel Ugarte is on the radar of Juventus. Tuttosport reports that the Bianconeri see the 24-year-old as an “intriguing” signing, but whether a deal is possible hinges on if the Premier League club would be willing to agree to an initial loan in which his €4million-per-season salary would be covered.
– Paris Saint-Germain and clubs in the Premier League are pushing to sign Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga, according to AS. The 23-year-old is reported to be unsatisfied with his current role for Los Blancos, and believes that it could limit his chances of starting for France at this summer’s World Cup. That has created uncertainty around his future at the Bernabéu, with PSG keen to land Camavinga after missing out on his signature in 2021, while clubs in England‘s top flight see him as a strong fit for the high-tempo and physical style of the Premier League.
– Barcelona are aware of growing interest in right back Jules Koundé from Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea. Mundo Deportivo reports that the three Premier League clubs are all watching the 27-year-old’s situation closely, with the Reds keen to land a more defensive option after replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold with Jeremie Frimpong last summer. Kounde remains contracted at Camp Nou until the summer of 2030, but it is reported that the Blaugrana could be tempted to accept a significant offer.
– Liverpool, Chelsea and Newcastle are interested in AS Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara, per TEAMtalk. The Magpies have reportedly taken up a strong position in the race to sign the 22-year-old Senegal international, having “intensified” their pursuit in recent weeks. Camara has been linked to Newcastle as a potential replacement for Manchester United-linked Sandro Tonali, while Monaco are expected to be willing to move him on for the right fee.
