Rumors continue to fuel the hopes of fans, who are hoping that the best players still available on the transfer market can still make it to their teams.
Transfer Market Rumors Today in Europe After July 27, 2022
Georginio Wijnaldum Does Not Want to Stay With PSG
Dutch midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum does not want to continue playing in France’s Ligue 1, and it is very likely that his next destination will be Italy’s Serie A, as he is wanted by Roma. According to rumors, coach José Mourinho has held talks with the PSG player, and an agreement could soon be reached for him to become the third reinforcement of this transfer window. It is said that he could accept a reduction in his salary in order to go to “Loba”.
Jules Koundé Would Have a Pre-agreement With FC Barcelona
The novel of the French defender, Jules Koundé, has taken a tremendous turn: when everyone imagined that he would become a Chelsea player, negotiations were stopped, and now everything points that he will become a player of FC Barcelona. Although there is nothing official yet, the most recent rumor indicates that there is a pre-agreement between Sevilla and Barcelona, for 50 million euros fixed and another 10 million euros variable.
Charles de Ketelaere Close to Playing in Italian Serie A
Attacking midfielder Charles De Ketelaere, who plays for Belgian league side Brugge, is close to moving to Serie A with AC Milan. Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that the Italian club is awaiting a response from the Belgian club on whether to accept or reject the offer for De Ketelaere. Rumor has it that the offer is for 35 million euros.
Manchester City Targeting Two Players
Following the departure of Oleksandr Zinchenko, Manchester City are looking to add a new left-back to their ranks and are still between two players. The first option is Marc Cucurella, but Brighton are asking €50 million for him, and at this stage of the transfer window, the Citizens have no plans to spend that amount of money. The other option that coach Pep Guardiola has in mind is Benfica’s Alejandro Grimaldo, who could arrive for 20 million euros.
Cristiano Ronaldo Still Considering Leaving Manchester United
Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo has all his fans in suspense as it is still unknown whether he will continue with Manchester United. The player has a one-year contract with the English club and is in the coaching staff’s plans, but if he stays there he will not play in the Champions League, which is the top club competition in Europe.
Since the end of the season, rumor has it that CR7 requested his departure, and, although his name has been linked to several teams in this transfer market, there is still nothing official to indicate his exit. Even though he is already doing preseason with the team, he was not in action in the match against Wrexham, and we still do not know what will be the fate of the Portuguese star.
