TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United are tracking Arsenal‘s Myles Lewis-Skelly, Fulham‘s Antonee Robinson and Crystal Palace‘s Tyrick Mitchell as they look for a left back proven in the Premier League, according to TEAMtalk. Lewis-Skelly has had a reduction in his game time at the Emirates due to the form of Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapié, and the 19-year-old is a candidate to leave in the summer as he hopes to make more appearances for England.
– Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva is prioritising a move to Barcelona having decided to end his time at the Etihad Stadium when his contract expires this summer, reports Diario Sport. Barça see signing the 31-year-old as an interesting deal but he isn’t a priority for them due to an abundance of players in the position. The Portugal international is also considering other options, as he has large offers from the Saudi Pro League. Juventus have also made an offer, and Benfica dream of bringing him back to the club.
– Bayer Leverkusen’s Alejandro Grimaldo has emerged as the main option as Barcelona consider signing a left back, as reported by Diario Sport. There are concerns around Alejandro Balde’s injury record while they aren’t completely convinced about permanently signing João Cancelo from Al Hilal due to his defensive lapses. Grimaldo’s contract with Leverkusen ends in 2027, but the 30-year-old has openly stated that he wants to leave this summer and it would likely take less than his €20 million release clause to complete a move.
– Atlético Madrid forward Antoine Griezmann will make use of the international break by flying to the United States to complete a move to Orlando City, reports Marca. Atleti have given the France international the necessary permission to go and sign what will be the last long-term contract of his career. Due to his relationship with Atlético, Griezmann will stay until the end of the season and attempt to win the Copa del Rey and Champions League.
– Barcelona are considering extending Robert Lewandowski‘s contract for an extra year, Fabrizio Romano has reported, although he adds that it has not been decided. The striker is still considering his options. He could stay at Barça, move to another European team, join a Saudi Pro League club or head to MLS where there have already been approaches. The 37-year-old will make the final decision on his future.
