TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest and West Ham United all remain keen on signing Southampton’s Tyler Dibling, Sky Germany reports. The forward’s transfer is valued at around the £60 million mark by the Championship club, although they are yet to receive a formal offer. Several inquiries have been lodged over the 19-year-old, who lit up the Premier League last season, as his current deal expires in June 2027. The Saints could choose to cash in this summer — rather than risk losing him on a free transfer.
– Liverpool winger Luis Díaz is now open to a move to join Bayern Munich, according to Christian Falk. Diaz, 28, has been a priority target for Barcelona this summer but Bayern have also shown interest, despite sources telling ESPN that Liverpool are not prepared to let him go. The Reds have already rejected an opening offer from Bayern, though Diaz’s desire to make the transfer could see them consider a second bid of around €60m plus add-ons.
– Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo is keen to move to Manchester United but the two clubs have yet to agree a transfer fee. The Mirror claims that United have already seen two bids to sign the Cameroon international worth £55m and £62.5m rejected. Brentford are reported to be holding out for a final fee of £65m, so a conclusion to the saga could be close.
– Galatasaray have improved their official bid to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, according to Fabrizio Romano. The Turkish club are now willing to pay his €75m release clause, but only through instalments to be paid over five years. A final decision now lies with Napoli, although Osimhen is said to have informed the club of his desire to join Galatasaray. The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at the club, where he scored an impressive 26 goals in 30 Süper Lig matches, and will sign a contract that runs until June 2028. Napoli have targeted Liverpool’s Darwin Núñez as his replacement.
– AC Milan have contacted Bayer Leverkusen over the availability of striker Victor Boniface, says Gianluca Di Marzio. The Nigeria international has been heavily linked with a move away from the German side, having almost joined Al Nassr at the beginning of 2025. Milan, meanwhile, could soon have funds to spend on attacking reinforcements, as former club captain Theo Hernández is reportedly on the verge of joining Al Hilal.
