TRENDING RUMORS
- Arsenal will go up against London rivals Tottenham Hotspur for Crystal Palace forward Eberechi Eze, The Sun reports. Eze has been a long-term target for Spurs, but Arsenal have stepped up their bid to sign the England international whose excellent form last season culminated in him scoring the winning goal against Manchester City in the FA Cup final. The Gunners' sporting director, Andrea Berta has held talks with Eze's representatives, paving the way for the club to pay the 26-year-old's £68 million release clause.
- Napoli need to make a significant financial push to sign Darwin Núñez as a big gap remains between their offer for the striker and Liverpool's asking price., according to Sky Italia. Premier League champions Liverpool want a fee of €65 million, plus up to €5 million in add-ons to let the Uruguay international leave this summer. Napoli, who have already signed former Man City playmaker Kevin De Bruyne and center back Luca Marianucci, have so far indicated they are only prepared to offer €5 million for Núñez, who only scored four league goals last season.
- Tottenham are not willing to back down in their valuation of Atlético Madrid target Cristian Romero, the Daily Telegraph reports. The Argentina international defender's future in north London is in doubt, and he has expressed a desire to play in Spain at some stage in his career. Atlético boss Diego Simeone has publicly praised the center back, who has two years remaining on his contract, but Spurs will hold out for at least €60 million for one of the key players in last season's UEFA Europa League success.
- Newcastle United are preparing a second offer for Nottingham Forest winger Anthony Elanga, reports The Sun. The Premier League club previously had a £45 million bid for Elanga rejected, but are now expected to increase their proposal by around £5m. Newcastle also haven't given up on signing Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford and Brighton & Hove Albion forward João Pedro. The triple swoop, if successful, would see the club pay at least £140m. Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo is also on the radar of Eddie Howe, who is preparing to lead the Magpies back into the UEFA Champions League next season.
- RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner is in talks with the New York Red Bulls, Tom Bogert reports. The Germany international is out of contract at the end of the month, meaning he'll be able to join the club of his choice on a free transfer from July. An agreement with the MLS club isn't imminent, although the player is thought to be open to the move. Werner's career has stalled somewhat in recent years, as he failed to score a single goal in the Premier League last season.
