Trending rumors
– AFC Bournemouth are demanding a £60 million fee for the transfer of defender Adrien Truffert, with Manchester United reportedly seeing the left back as a possible long-term successor for Luke Shaw. TEAMtalk says that United are keen on Truffert, but Bournemouth are insistent on their valuation and are also holding firm in their desire for £100 million fees to let midfielder Alex Scott, striker Junior Kroupi or forward Rayan leave. United have also been linked with Stuttgart defender Finn Jeltsch, 20, but the German club aren’t willing to consider anything less than a “very substantial offer” according to TuttoJuve.
– Liverpool remain keen on Internazionale midfielder Aleksandar Stankovic after enquiring about him while negotiating Curtis Jones‘ €35 million move to San Siro, according to TEAMtalk. The Reds used the talks as an opportunity to check on the 21-year-old’s availability, with the Nerazzurri having exercised their €23 million option to re-sign him from Club Brugge earlier in the summer. Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur had also shown an interest in the Serbia international during the summer.
– Real Madrid striker Endrick is facing an uncertain future despite being ready to return from injury, says Sport. Endrick, 20, has struggled to assert himself in the Madrid first XI since his €72 million move from Palmeiras in 2024 and spent time on loan at Lyon last season. Now Carlos Espí has been signed as new boss Jose Mourinho’s second-choice striker behind Kylian Mbappé, the future of Endrick is up for debate and he will need to prove himself in the coming months if he wants to stay.
– Ronald Araújo‘s future at Barcelona is increasingly dependent on the stance of manager Hansi Flick, according to TEAMtalk. The Liverpool loanee’s summer move to Anfield came about following Flick’s admission that he couldn’t guarantee Araujo the game time he wanted at Barca. Liverpool have a permanent option to sign the 27-year-old for €55 million and have been delighted with his start to life in England, but are in no rush to decide his long-term future.
– Sources close to Tottenham Hotspur forward Richarlison have indicated that other clubs are interested after he rejected a move to Vasco da Gama, as reported by UOL, although no clubs were named in the report. Vasco’s board has already been informed by the 29-year-old that he won’t be joining them. The Brazilian club tried to sign him on a permanent deal, but he wanted it to be short-term and would have joined on loan if it was allowed.
