Transfer Market Moves in Europe Today – July 19, 2022
Gleison Bremer to Bolster Juventus Defense
Juventus had announced that they were interested in Gleison Bremer, but Inter Milan also made an offer. Finally, the Brazilian center-back has decided to join Juve. He was the best in Serie A in his position while playing for Torino, and that allowed him to make the leap to one of the greats of Italian soccer. According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Juventus will pay Torino 41 million euros, and the player will have a salary of 6 million euros, in a contract until 2027.
Bayern Munich Makes Matthijs de Ligt’s Arrival Official
With the arrival of Gleison Bremer, Juventus will not have time to miss Matthijs de Ligt, who has already been officially presented as a Bayern Munich player. After much to-ing and fro-ing, the saga is over, and the Dutchman will play in the Bundesliga next season. The deal was for €70 million fixed and €10 million plus variables, according to European media outlets. The 22-year-old defender will remain with the German club until 2027.
PSG Offered a Player to Manchester City
French newspaper Le Parisien reported that Paris Saint-Germain offered Neymar in exchange for Bernardo Silva. The same article states that it was coach Pep Guardiola who did not want to sign the Brazilian star. PSG has been silent in terms of signings, but it is known that the club has some players it wants to move, including Neymar, according to rumors.
Three Teams Interested in Martin Braithwaite
In recent weeks it has been said that Denmark’s Martin Braithwaite has no place in Xavi’s scheme at FC Barcelona this season, so he is on the lookout for a team. For now, there is talk of three teams trying to add him to their ranks. His destination could be Rayo Vallenaco, Atletico Madrid or Ajax. According to the most recent reports, Alfred Schreuder has requested him as a priority for the Netherlands squad.
Edinson Cavani Close to Villarreal
Uruguayan striker Edinson Cavani remains a free agent, but it appears that this is due to indecision more than a lack of possibilities. At the end of the 2021-22 season, the “Matador” was linked to Toluca of Liga MX and Boca Juniors of Argentina, and although some assured that he would no longer remain in Europe, the story has taken a turn. Mundo Deportivo and Marca have reported that Villarreal are in negotiations with the “charrúa” and could reach an agreement in the coming days.
