TRENDING RUMORS
- Manchester United remain "strongly interested" in Paris Saint-Germain left-back Nuno Mendes, Florian Plettenberg has revealed. While the Ligue 1 giants are pushing to extend his contract beyond 2026, Mendes is in no rush to pen a new deal. The Portugal international, alongside AC Milan's Theo Hernández, is considered an alternative transfer option for United if Alphonso Davies chooses to remain at Bayern Munich. According to Plettenberg, Mendes has "many top suitors" around Europe.
- Fulham are eyeing a surprize swoop for Brighton & Hove Albion striker Evan Ferguson in January, as per The Independent. The Republic of Ireland international has struggled for game time this season, which has alerted the attention of several Premier League sides ahead of the transfer window opening next month. Fulham are hopeful they can secure a loan deal until the end of the campaign to assist their push for European football. Ferguson, 20, has scored just once in the Premier League this season, and has generally played second fiddle to João Pedro.
- AS Roma forward Paulo Dybala is requesting more than €10 million per year to join Galatasaray this winter, according to Rudy Galetti. As Calciomercato revealed earlier this week, Roma boss Claudio Ranieri won't stand in the 31-year-old's way if he wishes to leave the club in January. While Galatasaray have asked for information about a potential deal, concerns over Dybala's salary request, plus the prospect of having to pay a transfer fee, could complicate their pursuit of the Argentina international.
- Several Premier League sides look set to battle it out for Miguel Almirón's signature in January, The Sun reports. According to the outlet, Crystal Palace, Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers are all monitoring the 30-year-old, who Newcastle United are keen to offload next month. Almirón, who has started just once in the Premier League this season, is also attracting interest from Marseille and VfB Stuttgart.
- Juventus are not planning on letting Kenan Yıldız leave the club despite reports to the contrary, Nicolo Schira has revealed. In recent weeks, the Turkey international has been linked with a €40m exit following his electric start to the campaign. However, the Italian side regard Yıldız as a key player in the club's long-term rebuilding project. The 19-year-old has scored three goals in Serie A this season and has also turned heads in the UEFA Champions League.
