Trending rumors
– Bayer Munich are still looking for a long-term successor to Harry Kane, and have Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko on their shortlist, according to Christian Falk. Sesko, 23, impressed in the German Bundesliga during a spell with RB Leipzig where he scored 39 goals from 87 games, before he moved to Old Trafford for €76 million in 2025. Bayern have already signed Morocco striker Ismael Saibari from PSV Eindhoven for €50 million this summer, but could move to replace the 33-year-old Kane with Sesko if he doesn’t pen a new contract.
– Newcastle United are considering a move for AFC Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams after cooling their interest in alternative targets, says Football Insider. The USMNT international impressed at this summer’s World Cup, with the Magpies now monitoring his situation as they look to strengthen in midfield. Manchester United are no longer expected to pursue Adams, potentially giving Newcastle a clearer path to the 27-year-old.
– Paris Saint-Germain have opened talks to sign Ajax winger Mika Godts, Fabrizio Romano has revealed. The Belgium international enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in the Eredivisie last term, scoring 17 goals in 34 league games, and while Ajax are hoping to retain Godts for another season, they are aware that PSG have held direct talks with the player in recent days. The European champions are hoping to sign two wingers this summer, with Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche their other top target.
– Internazionale are prepared to increase their offer to sign Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones to around €35 million as they step up their pursuit of the England international, according to The Daily Mail. The Serie A club have already had a couple of bids rejected, but are hopeful an improved proposal will move negotiations forward. Liverpool are understood to value Jones’ transfer closer to €40 million and remain reluctant to sanction his exit despite the 25-year-old entering the final year of his contract.
– AS Roma are willing to bid up to €25 million to land Feyenoord full back Givairo Read, Gianluca Di Marzio has revealed. The Dutch giants are bracing themselves for an opening offer, with Nottingham Forest also monitoring the player’s situation. Read, 20, is under contract at Feyenoord until June 2029, having starred for the side in recent seasons. Sporting CP full back Iván Fresneda is also on Roma’s shortlist, although no direct contract has been established with the Portuguese club as things stand.
