Current Rumors
– Liverpool plans to offer winger Ben Doak in a trade with Crystal Palace for defender Mark Gaehe, according to reports. Gaehe, an English international, is valued at around £50 million, a price Liverpool is reluctant to meet. However, Doak, who notched three goals and seven assists in the last season’s Championship while on loan at Middlesbrough, might bridge the valuation gap. Crystal Palace had previously shown interest in Doak, who is expected to depart Anfield this summer. Additionally, defender Jarrell Quansa is reportedly pursuing a move to Bayer Leverkusen.
– Manchester United needs to act quickly if they wish to acquire Moys Keen from Fiorentina, as reported by Corriere Dello Sport. The former Juventus, Everton, and Paris Saint-Germain player has a £44 million release clause set to expire on July 15. Keen is merely a backup option on the Red Devils’ shortlist, especially after Brentford rejected a £62.5 million offer for Brian Mbemo last week.
– Real Madrid is showing interest in Dutch talent Keith Smitt from AZ Alkmaar. The 19-year-old was named MVP at the recent European Under-19 Championship after the Netherlands took home the title. Having progressed through the club’s youth ranks, Smitt joined the senior squad last summer and is under contract until June 2028.
– Sports CP forward Viktor Gyökeres has informed club president Frederico Varandas that he won’t return this summer. According to a Portuguese source, Gyökeres was upset with recent comments from Varandas suggesting that only “the world’s worst agent” would ruin Swedish international moves. After scoring 49 goals last season, Gyökeres has drawn attention from several clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester United.
– Thomas Partey is set to leave Arsenal when his contract expires on June 30, as Athletic reports that he hasn’t signed a new deal with the Premier League club. The Ghana international is quickly deciding on his next destination after being with the Emirates since 2020. Arsenal is expected to announce the signing of Brentford’s Christian Norgaard as his replacement shortly.
Confirmed Transfers
– AC Milan bids farewell to Kyle Walker after choosing not to convert his loan from Manchester City into a permanent transfer.
