Liverpool is reportedly prioritizing a new contract for right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold, as the deals of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk are also set to expire next year. Real Madrid has been linked with Alexander-Arnold, but they may target Manchester United’s Diogo Dalot as an alternative. However, Manchester United has no intention of letting Dalot leave. Chelsea and West Ham United are keeping an eye on Aston Villa striker Jhon Duran’s development. Raphinha, the Barcelona winger, turned down offers from Al Nassr and Al Hilal during the summer transfer window to stay in Catalonia. Barcelona’s move for goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has been delayed due to technical problems as they search for a replacement for the injured Marc-Andre ter Stegen.
Several Premier League clubs, including former club Manchester United, are interested in striking a deal with Lille for England international Anges Gomes. Tottenham Hotspur is expected to receive investment from the Middle East through Amanda Staveley, who previously helped a Saudi consortium take over Newcastle United.
Chelsea is open to offers for left-back Ben Chilwell after attempting to facilitate his departure during the summer transfer window without success. Arsenal is uncertain about offering midfielder Thomas Partey a new contract due to concerns about his injury record despite his strong start this season.
These are some of the latest transfer news and rumors circulating in football circles around the world.
