As the summer transfer window approaches, several top European clubs have started planning ways to strengthen their squads. Reports from various European media outlets suggest that many teams are already monitoring potential targets before the window officially opens.
Arsenal Interested in Julian Brandt
Arsenal are reportedly keen on signing German midfielder Julian Brandt from Borussia Dortmund. The 29-year-old is expected to see his contract expire at the end of the season, which could allow him to leave on a free transfer.
According to reports in England, Arsenal believe Brandt’s experience and creativity in midfield could add valuable depth to Mikel Arteta’s squad.
Manzambi Attracts Interest from Premier League Clubs
Meanwhile, three Premier League giants — Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea — are closely monitoring the progress of SC Freiburg midfielder Johan Manzambi.
The 20-year-old Switzerland youth international has impressed in Germany this season, drawing attention from several clubs across Europe.
Arsenal Step Away from Tonali Deal
Arsenal are also said to have cooled their interest in Italian midfielder Sandro Tonali, who currently plays for Newcastle United.
Newcastle reportedly value the 25-year-old at around £77 million (€90 million), a price considered too high for some interested clubs.
However, Manchester United and Manchester City are still believed to be monitoring the situation, although a return to Serie A appears unlikely due to the high valuation.
Juventus Eye Bernardo Silva
In Italy, Juventus have reportedly opened preliminary talks with Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva over a potential transfer as his contract approaches its final stages.
The Turin club faces competition from Galatasaray and Inter Miami, who are also interested in signing the 31-year-old Portuguese playmaker.
Brighton Close to Signing Said El Mala
Brighton & Hove Albion are believed to be close to beating Chelsea in the race to sign 1. FC Köln winger Said El Mala.
The 19-year-old German winger has impressed in his first Bundesliga season, attracting interest from several clubs.
Chelsea Not Planning to Sell Liam Delap
Chelsea have no intention of selling striker Liam Delap during the upcoming summer window, despite the 23-year-old scoring only one Premier League goal this season due to injuries.
Liverpool Monitoring Nnamdi Collins
Liverpool are also considering a move for Germany youth international defender Nnamdi Collins from Eintracht Frankfurt.
Reports indicate that Arsenal are also keeping an eye on the 22-year-old defender.
Barcelona Searching for Rashford Alternative
In Spain, FC Barcelona are reportedly looking for alternative attacking options if they fail to turn Marcus Rashford’s loan move from Manchester United into a permanent transfer.
Femi Azeez Draws Premier League Attention
Millwall winger Femi Azeez is attracting interest from several Premier League clubs. Crystal Palace are currently leading the race to sign the 24-year-old, with Everton and Brentford also monitoring the situation.
Future of Coach Andoni Iraola
Beyond player transfers, coaching changes could also take place this summer. AFC Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola has reportedly attracted interest from several major clubs.
It is claimed that Tottenham Hotspur, Crystal Palace and Manchester United are all interested in the 43-year-old Spanish coach, whose contract runs until the end of the current season.
