TRENDING RUMORS
- Manchester Evening News reports that Viktor Gyökeres is a possible Manchester United player of the future given his clear links to the fallen Premier League giants. The Sporting CP striker has excelled under the tutelage of soon-to-be United boss Rúben Amorim and bolstered his burgeoning reputation with a marvellous hat trick against Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday. Gyökeres, who played for Brighton & Hove Albion and Coventry City before joining Amorim in Portugal, will be well known to United sporting director Dan Ashworth as the two crossed paths when the executive was technical director at the Seagulls. Sky Sports pundit Clinton Morrison added more fuel to the fire later on Tuesday saying: "Man United will be looking to get the cheque book out for him."
- Angel Gomes is keen to return to the Premier League amid interest from Tottenham Hotspur, reports GiveMeSport, with the midfielder having come through the ranks at Manchester United before moving to Lille in 2020. The 24-year-old's financial demands could dictate whether Spurs place themselves at the front of the queue to sign the England international when his contract expires in the summer.
- Manchester United are plotting a fresh move for Everton centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite in the summer transfer window, according to TalkSPORT. The 22-year-old reportedly has ambitions to play for a top Premier League club, but the Red Devils could face competition from Liverpool having already seen two offers worth up to £50 million rejected ahead of this season.
- VfB Stuttgart want to sign Bayern Munich forward Mathys Tel on loan in January if the conditions are right, reports Sport Bild, which adds that the Swabians tried to sign the 19-year-old last summer. That comes with the Frenchman having played 224 minutes across all competitions without scoring this season.
- Manchester City could look to offload Jack Grealish to make room for a new winger in the summer transfer window, according to Football Insider. A January move is unlikely despite the 29-year-old being in and out of Pep Guardiola's team, but a potential exit is still being weighed up.
- Brentford's demands of over £60m for Bryan Mbeumo will price Arsenal out of a move, according to Football Insider. The 25-year-old's return of eight goals in nine Premier League appearances so far this term has also caught the Gunners' attention -- Liverpool too -- although a January transfer could be off the cards as the Bees are determined not to lose Mbeumo halfway through the season.
