Welcome back, football fans! Today’s update covers the latest transfer news and rumors, with insights into the movements of key players and potential deals in the pipeline. Here’s what you need to know:
Dani Olmo’s release clause is set to expire on July 20, not July 15, giving clubs ample time to join the race for his signature. Bayern Munich has shown interest, with Olmo on their shortlist. However, their priority remains Xavi Simons. Despite rumors, Manchester City and Chelsea are not actively pursuing Olmo at this time. Chelsea feels well-covered in that position with Cole Palmer, Noni Madueke, Kendry Paez, and other young talents.
Alvaro Morata’s Move to Milan
Milan fans, get ready to welcome Alvaro Morata! The club is set to trigger his release clause from Atletico Madrid for €13 million. Morata will sign a four-year contract and undergo medical tests soon. Milan is also eyeing another striker, with Tammy Abraham being a strong candidate.
Ederson’s Potential Move to Al Nassr
Manchester City’s Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson has received a €30 million proposal from Al Nassr. City, however, demands €50-60 million. Ederson is keen on the move, but negotiations are ongoing. Should Ederson leave, City plans to continue with Stefan Ortega as their first-choice goalkeeper.
Chelsea’s Stance on Victor Osimhen
Chelsea remains cautious about spending big on Victor Osimhen. They’re not willing to meet Napoli’s high demands of €120 million and a €12 million annual salary. The club will only consider the deal if the financial terms become more reasonable.
