TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is on the radar of Bayern Munich, the Daily Mirror reports. Amid continued interest from the Saudi Pro League, the Bundesliga champions now look set to join the race to sign Fernandes, whose transfer is valued at around the £70 million mark. United are open to entertaining bids to sign the 31-year-old if the fee is right, although it remains to be seen whether a deal could be sanctioned in January, as Fernandes is under contract until June 2027.
– Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan have set their sights on FC Cologne wonderkid Said El Mala, says Bild. The 19-year-old is enjoying a breakthrough campaign in the Bundesliga, where he has already scored three goals in seven appearances. While El Mala is under contract until 2030, he could be available as soon as next summer for a fee in the region of €30m-€40m. Bayern Munich have also been linked with a move for the Germany U21 international in recent weeks.
– Manchester United midfielder Casemiro is continuing to attract interest from the Saudi Pro League, according to Football Insider. Despite impressing of late for club and country, the 33-year-old Brazilian is prepared to listen to offers heading into the January transfer window. Casemiro’s contract expires next summer, and while a new deal has been mooted, it would require the player to take a pay cut.
– Inter Milan sporting director Piero Ausilio has told Corriere dello Sport that the club won’t be looking to sign Brazilian icon Neymar, 33, if he becomes a free agent at the end of his Santos contract: “Neymar? Come on, that’s b——-. Never contacted, never offered — it’s nonsense.”
