TRENDING RUMORS
– Paris Saint-Germain are considering an audacious move for Mohamed Salah at the end of the season, according to L’Equipe. The Egypt star, 32, has yet to agree on new Liverpool contract that goes beyond the end of the campaign, and the French outlet believes he’s already in talks with the Ligue 1 champions. PSG have so far failed to improve their wing options after having lost out on Napoli‘s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (23), Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho (24) and Athletic Club‘s Nico Williams (22) recently. Salah and PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi know each other well too, which could be a factor, though the French club have refuted the rumour, stating it’s a ploy from Salah’s representatives to put pressure on the Liverpool hierarchy.
– Manchester United are preparing a £60 million move for Sporting teenager Geovany Quenda, according to Ekrem Konur. The 17-year-old has impressed after having excelled in the wing-back position under former boss — and current United head coach — Ruben Amorim, and United are said to have already put together a package, plus bonuses, for the defender in January. However, United aren’t the only interested party, with Chelsea are also considering a move, and Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City all monitoring the situation.
– 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.
– Newcastle United are prepared to part ways with right-back Kieran Trippier in January, according to Football Insider. Magpies boss Eddie Howe had previously stated that he was keen to keep the 34-year-old in the squad, but behind the scenes agents are being alerted to Trippier’s availability, and a move is believed to be a mere formality if the right offer comes along. The England international contributed 11 assists last season but has seen his game time significantly reduced this campaign.
– 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.
