TRENDING RUMORS
- Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens is attracting interest from top Premier League clubs Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur according to Sky Sports' Florian Plettenberg. The 20-year-old, who scored in Saturday's 1-1 draw with Bayern Munich, has a contract with BVB until 2028 and the club would want a fee of around €100m for him. Gittens does not have any immediate plans to leave, but a move to the Premier League is a long-term ambition for the former Manchester City youth player.
- Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah is open to signing a one-year extension at Anfield, but he is growing frustrated with how the club have handled the talks, according to the Athletic. Less than a month remains before teams from outside of the Premier League will be able to approach the 32-year-old regarding a pre-contract agreement, and it is said that the Reds are still yet to indicate their preferred terms and duration of any potential new deal. ESPN sources reported on Monday that Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi has been in contact with Salah's representatives "for a while" regarding a potential switch to the Parc des Princes next summer.
- Offers would be considered by Bayern Munich for winger Leroy Sané, reports Sky Sports Deutschland's Florian Plettenberg. Negotiations over a new contract are currently ongoing with the 28-year-old keen to stay at the Allianz Arena, but with the Bundesliga club looking to lower his salary, it is believed that they haven't ruled out offloading him if they receive a "top offer" in the next transfer window. Sané has made 14 appearances across all competitions so far this season, and it is reported that there is still some distance regarding terms on a potential extension.
- Real Valladolid defender Juma Bah is a January target for Manchester City, according to the Sun. The 18-year-old has impressed in his debut season in LaLiga, playing seven times. The 6-foot-5 centre-back joined the Spanish side in the summer from AIK Freetong and was expected to play for the B team, but has been fast-tracked to the senior squad, becoming the first Sierra Leone-born player to feature in the Spanish top-flight in the process. Newcastle United and Everton are also interested.
- AC Milan are looking to bolster their central midfield options in January, with boss Paulo Fonseca hoping to provide competition for Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Ismaël Bennacer in the heart of the midfield. Calciomercato says that the Rossoneri have sent scouts to watch Hellas Verona 20-year-old Reda Belahyane, as well as Genoa's Morten Frendrup, 23, and Torino's Samuele Ricci, 23. The latter is also attracting interest from Manchester City. Milan have other targets too, with Lucas Gourna-Douath, 21, of RB Salzburg, and Chelsea's Carney Chukwuemeka, 23, also on their list of potential additions.
