TRENDING RUMORS
- Liverpool are positioning themselves to sign Real Madrid winger Rodrygo, reports Diario AS. The Reds are ready to do "everything in their power" to land the 24-year-old. They are preparing to send officials to begin talks with Los Blancos, who are believed to be looking for an offer close to 100 million. Any move is expected to take time as the Anfield hierarchy prioritise resolving the future of winger Luis Daz, with sources telling ESPN that Bayerrn Munich have already had a bid for the Colombia international rejected. There could also be competition for Rodrygo from Arsenal, while Bayern also have the Brazil international in mind as a potential alternative to Daz.
- Real Madrid are watching the situation of Liverpool centre-back Ibrahima Konat, according to the Daily Mirror. The 26-year-old is said to have turned down talks with a club from the Saudi Pro League amid plans to continue in Europe, where he wants to keep playing at the highest level, but while the Reds are hopeful of signing him to a new contract, there is believed to be a "sense" that he could be waiting for Los Blancos, who can begin formal talks with him from January if he doesn't pen new terms at Anfield.
- There is a difference of just 2.5 million separating Arsenal and Sporting CP from reaching a deal for Viktor Gykeres' transfer to the Emirates stadium, Record reports. The two clubs are hopeful of reaching a deal by the end of the week with the Sweden international's transfer set to reach 80m. Sources told ESPN that Gykeres had agreed personal terms with Arsenal over a five-year deal after the club's sporting director Andrea Berta flew out to Portugal for direct talks. The striker went on strike Saturday and refused to report to preseason training.
- Manchester United are interested in Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson, reports The Times. The Red Devils are monitoring the 24-year-old amid belief that the Blues could be open to a transfer if they receive a suitable offer. Doubt continues to surround Jackson's future at Stamford Bridge. The Senegal international scored 10 goals in 30 Premier League matches last season, but Chelsea have signed forwards Liam Delap and Jo�o Pedro this summer and he has also been linked with Aston Villa.
- Talks have been held by Chelsea as they look to land Ajax and Netherlands defender Jorrel Hato, according to talkSPORT. The Blues are keen to land a left-sided player as they prepare to part ways with left-back Ben Chilwell. A move for Hato, 19, would require an offer in the region of �40m. While no team has made a formal proposal to the Eredivisie side yet, Hato is also on Liverpool's shortlist as an alternative to Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guhi.
