In the Premier League, the giants refine record figures and analyze key sales to finance ambitious projects. In LaLiga, contractual renewals and generational changes mark the agenda of the offices. Between hidden clauses, million-dollar valuations and silent negotiations, the most powerful clubs on the continent are preparing for a summer that promises to redefine hierarchies without prior notice.
Premier League
In the Premier League, Newcastle United have been linked with a possible departure for Malick Thiaw for Manchester United, although the defender would have to become the most expensive centre-back in history if the Old Trafford club completes his signing. The valuation amounts to 107.8 million dollars. In addition, Manchester United is in talks with Nottingham Forest about Murillo, who would be interested in changing teams.
Arsenal and Chelsea appear as the most likely destinations for Senny Mayulu, Paris Saint-Germain’s young promise. Manchester City is also closely monitoring the situation of the midfielder, whose price could range between 60 and 70 million euros. For its part, Chelsea is preparing an offer of up to $82.7 million for Rodrygo, a proposal that Real Madrid would seriously analyze.
Nottingham Forest has set the price of Elliot Anderson, a target for both Manchester United and Manchester City, at at least $101.1 million. If Manchester United look for more accessible alternatives, they could take advantage of a possible massive sale of West Ham in the event of relegation, with Mateus Fernandes as an option to reinforce the midfield.
Aston Villa could be forced to sell Morgan Rogers if they do not qualify for the Champions League, a situation that would bring Liverpool closer to a signing close to 134.8 million dollars. Meanwhile, Newcastle United shielded Anthony Gordon until 2030, frustrating the plans of Arsenal and Liverpool.
Leon Goretzka, a Manchester United target, is also of interest to Inter Milan, Napoli and Juventus, while Bruno Guimarães does not plan to leave Newcastle United despite interest from Manchester City and Barcelona. Chelsea have put Alejandro Garnacho and Liam Delap up for sale, and a special clause in Victor Osimhen’s contract with Galatasaray could facilitate his departure for England.
LaLiga
In LaLiga, Barcelona is looking to sign a midfielder and has set its sights on Stije Resink from FC Groningen. The Dutch player is considered Frenkie de Jong’s heir.
Marcus Rashford agreed to reduce his salary to facilitate his permanent arrival at Barcelona.
Real Madrid’s priority is to renew Vinícius Junior. Philippe Coutinho interests Elche, Girona and Rayo Vallecano. Finally, Alavés could see Youssef Enríquez leave for Real Madrid, given the uncertainty about the future of Fran García and Ferland Mendy.
