The summer transfer window hasn’t officially opened yet, but the deals are already flying. Here’s everything happening right now across Europe’s biggest clubs.
Real Madrid seal Dumfries. Los Blancos are done deliberating — according to Sky Sports, Real Madrid are expected to trigger Denzel Dumfries’ £17.3m release clause to prise the Inter Milan right-back away from Serie A. At that price for an established international, it’s an absolute steal, and it signals Madrid mean business this window.
Newcastle go big for Nigerian teenager Yohanna. Here’s the most exciting story of the day. Newcastle United have submitted a €24m (£20.7m) bid to sign 18-year-old Nigerian winger Zadok Yohanna from AIK Stockholm, per Expressen. The teenager is a genuine hot property, with Sky Germany reporting Brighton have also struck a verbal agreement with him. This one could get competitive quickly.
Milan muscle in for Summerville. AC Milan have joined the race to sign West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville, 24, with Tottenham and Aston Villa also circling the Dutch speedster, reports TEAMtalk. West Ham’s relegation to the Championship makes a sale inevitable — the question is simply who wins the bidding war.
Fernandes staying put — for now. Manchester United have shelved contract talks with Bruno Fernandes after receiving assurances that the 31-year-old club captain wants to remain at Old Trafford long-term, per The Mirror. No rush, then — but those talks will need to happen eventually.
Greenwood’s future takes shape. Atletico Madrid are reportedly considering selling Julian Alvarez to fund a move for Mason Greenwood at Marseille, per Fichajes. Roma are also keen on the England forward, with Manchester United sitting pretty thanks to a sell-on clause baked into his original departure deal, reports TEAMtalk.
Fulham’s managerial hunt narrows. With Marco Silva heading to Benfica to replace Jose Mourinho, Fulham are zeroing in on their next boss. Kieran McKenna and Thomas Frank are the leading candidates, according to talkSPORT — two highly-rated coaches who won’t stay available for long.
Jesus to Everton? Everton are chasing Arsenal’s Gabriel Jesus but want the champions to drop their £20m asking price, per Football Insider. Expect some hard bargaining ahead.
It’s only June. Buckle up.
