Serge Gnabry latest
Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer says the club are still in talks with Serge Gnabry over a new contract.
The German international is entering the final year of his deal and has been linked with Liverpool, as well as former club Arsenal, with Bayern expected to sell this summer if they cannot convince the winger to pen a new deal.
“We’ve been in talks with Serge for a long time,” Hainer said. “Unfortunately we haven’t reached an agreement yet. There are still some different expectations, but we’re working on it.”
Man United want Eriksen
The Mirror are reporting that Manchester United have entered the race to sign Christian Eriksen this summer.
The Dane made a superb return to football after joining Brentford as a free agent midway through the season but only signed a short-term deal until the end of the campaign.
Brentford are desperate to secure his services on a permanent deal but are set to face competition from a number of Premier League rivals.
Bergwijn in line for Ajax switch?
Talks are continuing between Tottenham and Dutch side Ajax over a deal for forward Steven Bergwijn.
That’s according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, who says that the winger is open to the move, though no fee has yet been agreed between the clubs.
Bergwijn was used sparingly by Antonio Conte, who is looking to make significant improvements to his squad this summer, having already signed Ivan Perisic from Inter Milan.
Farke gets Monchengladbach gig
Former Norwich City boss Daniel Farke is back in management.
The German was sacked midway through the season with the Canaries rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table but it does not seem to have harmed his stock because he has been named the new Borussia Monchengladbach boss.
West Ham reportedly launch bid to sign Armando Broja
West Ham are reportedly ready to test Chelsea’s resovle and make a bid to sign Armando Broja.
The striker excelled on loan at Southampton last season, scoring 9 times in 38 appearances in what looked like a breakthrough campaign.
According to Football Insider, the forward has emerged as West Ham’s big striker target as David Moyes looks for an alternative to Michail Antonio.
Sadio Mane: The latest
The Daily Telegraph claim Liverpool still expect to command a decent fee in the transfer market for Sadio Mane.
The forward has suggested he’d be up for leaving Anfield this summer amid links with a move to Bayern Munich.
Still, Liverpool aren’t likely to make that an easy exit.
PSG consider Jose Mourinho approach
According to the Daily Telegraph, PSG are considering a shock move for Jose Mourinho.
Thought to be done at the top level, Mourinho could replace Mauricio Pochettino, just as he did at Tottenham.
Roma could dig their heels in but the money on offer at PSG, as well as the chance to conquer another country must surely be tempting for the self-proclaimed ‘Special One’.
Liverpool interested in signing Mason Mount from Chelsea
What a move this would be.
The Express claim Liverpool are keen on Chelsea star Mason Mount and have opened a dialogue in regards to signing the England star.
Contract talks at Stamford Bridge are said to have stalled amid all of the turmoil off the pitch with both Manchester City and Jurgen Klopp’s side eager to test Chelsea’s resolve.
Mauricio Pochettino on the brink at PSG
It seems as if Mauricio Pochettino has been close to being sacked by PSG for months now.
However, according to Fabrizio Romano, the former Tottenham manager is just one meeting away from being shown the door by the French giants once club president Nasser Al Khelaifi returns to Paris.
Christian Pulisic attracting interest from Italy
Christian Pulisic is reportedly a target for both AC Milan and Juventus.
Chelsea bos Thomas Tuchel has called for more signings on the attacking front this summer after a difficult year for his frontline, potentially leading to a big rebuild now Todd Boehly is in command.
According to the Daily Mail, Milan and Juve both want the American international and are waiting to see if Chelsea will sell up.
