Regarding speculation surrounding Wirtz's future, Liverpool are totally dismissive of anything around him. Social media can be quite vociferous with things, but Liverpool know they've got a world class player. Talk of them thinking about cashing in or anything like that is absolute nonsense. "They're committed to Wirtz, there's no ifs or buts, they love him as a person and a player and know he'll come good.

Tottenham Hotspur remain interested in the Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic. According to a report from Juve Live, they are very serious about signing the 25-year-old striker, and they are hoping to make their move in January. The player will be out of contract at the end of the season, and Tottenham do not want him to agree on a pre-contract deal with any other club.

Newcastle United striker Nick Woltemade may only have joined the club this summer, but he's already got his sights set on a future move. The Germany international joined the Magpies after impressing with Bundesliga outfit Stuttgart, and it's perhaps not too surprising that he has ambitions to go back to his home country. According to Bild, Woltemade is keen to end up playing for Bayern Munich one day, having been a target for them while he was at Stuttgart.

Rashford is doing great at Barcelona, Romano said. Rashford is sending very clear messages. His desire to be a Barcelona player is there since January 2025. I've been telling you for weeks the feeling internally against Barca is that Rashford really perfectly fits the structure they have on the tactical point of view at Barcelona. They're very happy with all the relationships Rashford has with his teammates as well.

Semenyo has quickly become one of the Premier League's most sought-after attackers, and transfer reports suggest Liverpool are firmly established as the frontrunners for his signature, with the club already contacted through Richard Hughes. The situation, however, is complicated by Bournemouth's towering valuation and the involvement of multiple elite clubs. The Cherries are open to selling the player but for the right price. They reportedly value the player at 100 million for a highly disruptive January sale, with the price potentially dropping to around 70 million in the summer window.

It's a strange situation for Casemiro because he is still a very important player for Manchester United, a very important starter for Ruben Amorim, one of the most important players in the dressing room. His status is not just about the performance, but he is a serial winner. He is unbelievable in leadership as a player. He's still a starter, but at the moment, there are no negotiations to extend his contract.

Nothing has changed about what I said last time," Gnabry stated from Germany's October camp in remarks captured by @iMiaSanMia. "Right now I'm focused on the national team. I'm not thinking about my future right now. At the end of the day, it's up to the club to approach me. Whether that will happen or not, we'll see. I'm just focused on playing well. And then what will happen will happen.

Richarlison could be tempted to leave Tottenham, he told Football Insider. But that would force them to go out and sign a new striker, because they don't have the depth in that position to be letting people go without replacing them. Solanke's injury issues mean they need somebody who can fill in while he's out, they're not going to put themselves in a position where they're caught short.

Essentially, the Belgian 20-year-old was a contingency plan laying in wait to see what happened with Bayern and Luis Diaz, who was already considered to be a backup plan to Wirtz having chosen Liverpool over Bayern when he left Bayer Leverkusen. To Bayern's credit, this was made clear to Fofana and his representatives, but it's not exactly easy to accept the fact of being a backup to a backup plan.

The star of Said El Mala has risen fast. He broke into 3. Liga side Viktoria Köln's first team within months of joining the club as a youth prospect and was snapped up by 1. FC Köln just several months after that. Loaned back to his former side, El Mala enjoyed his first and only full season at Viktoria and used that one season to turn heads and catch the attention of a lot of scouts.

City are in control of Haaland's situation as the 25-year-old only recently signed a new contract running until 2034. That means Madrid would surely need crazy money to convince City to sell, while the player himself would also surely need to push for a move. There's no indication that that's going to happen for the moment, but it will be interesting to see if Los Blancos can get inside Haaland's head in the months to come.

Despite the stories doing the rounds in the media, Trossard has insisted that leaving the Emirates Stadium was never really an option for him this summer. Speaking to the Belgian media, as quoted and translated by the Metro, Trossard suggested that some fitness concerns might also have contributed to the speculation as it meant he wasn't playing as much. I've had some good weeks, both individually and with Arsenal, Trossard said.

The 28-year-old has been exceptional for the Spanish club over the last 12 months, and he was one of the contenders to win the Ballon d'Or. Raphinha has been labelled as an unbelievable player. Man United eyeing Raphinha There is no doubt that he is one of the best players in the world right now, and he could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for any team. According to Fichajes, Manchester United are keeping tabs on his situation, and they believe that he could be a transformative addition for the club.

Tell me one single club for which it wouldn't be a dream to have Erling Haaland. I understand that it's a dream for Barcelona to have him. If he weren't with us, he'd also be a dream for City. What's going to happen? Honestly, I don't know. He has a long contract here. I think he's doing very well; he's scoring a lot of goals, he always wants to improve, always wants to create more chances to score even more goals.

I've read several articles that have been damaging to me. I know I've had bad matches, I'm aware of that. I'm not hiding anything, and I'm open about it. I'm truly sad. You can say many things about me, but under no circumstances can you say I refuse to play. I've given everything and more for this club. I've played through fractures and injuries, and I've never complained or asked for a break.

That was made evident with their efforts to sign Marc Guehi in the summer, they wanted him to come in as the new partner for Van Dijk. Obviously they weren't able to get Guehi in, so Konate is still a very important player for them, and they can't afford for him to keep making mistakes. I expect the manager was raging at him after that performance against Palace because he was miles off it, and that's not what they need.

Manchester United came into the 2025/26 season with sky-high expectations, heavy summer investment and a fanbase eager for momentum. But while some signings have delivered right away, others have struggled to make the impact expected of them, leading to growing chatter about what works, what doesn't, and who must step up. One player who has still not made an impact at Old Trafford is Joshua Zirkzee, a 36 million signing who has yet to rediscover the touch that made him one of Europe's promising forwards.

It would be a hard deal to do. It's no surprise that there were some clubs sniffing around Gallagher in the summer. He's been in and out of the Atletico Madrid side, not played as many minutes as he would like in La Liga, but he did start in the Champions League against Liverpool. That makes it a difficult deal to do in January due to the fee involved and obviously Atletico would need to bring in a replacement for him as well.

Manchester United are reportedly among the clubs showing an interest in the potential transfer of Barcelona central midfielder Frenkie de Jong. The Netherlands international has shone during his time at Barca, but he's coming towards the end of his contract, potentially making him a free agent next summer. It seems Man Utd and others have been keen to take advantage of the situation, with Fichajes naming them and Bayern as two

Barkley has had something of an up-and-down career down the years and it's now unclear what the future could hold for him. The 31-year-old started out as a real wonderkid in his Everton days, but struggled when he later earned a big move to Chelsea. Since then, Barkley has occasionally shown signs of reviving his career in spells with Luton Town and Aston Villa, but he's now fallen down the pecking order in Unai Emery's squad again.
