TRENDING RUMORS
– Manchester United and Arsenal are leading the race to sign 16-year-old German sensation Kennet Eichhorn, says The Sun. The Hertha Berlin youngster, who has already been dubbed the «next Toni Kroos,» is also on the radar of Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. Eichhorn is a Germany U17 international and has played eight times in 2.Bundesliga for Hertha so far this season. A deal would reportedly cost around €20 million, but only to another German club, so that fee might rise if he were to move abroad.
– A loan move to Lyon is Endrick‘s «absolute priority» despite reported interest from several Premier League sides, Fabrizio Romano has revealed. A straight loan to Lyon is currently viewed as the most likely option for the Real Madrid youngster, who has played just once in LaLiga so far this season. Endrick, 19, is reported to be tempted by the opportunity to join the Ligue 1 side, who are competing in the UEFA Europa League this season.
– Aston Villa have struck an agreement with Morgan Rogers over a «significantly improved» contract, The Athletic reports. The 23-year-old forward is set to put pen to paper in the coming days on a deal that will keep him at Villa Park until 2031. The England international has been sensational since joining Aston Villa from Middlesbrough last year, with 19 goal involvements in the Premier League alone last season.
– Napoli have re-established contact with Manchester United midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. The Serie A champions are hoping to secure a January deal, which could take the form of a short-term loan. Mainoo, 20, remains Napoli’s No. 1 target after the club failed to land him back in the summer, as a long-term injury sustained by Kevin De Bruyne, as well as Frank Anguissa‘s anticipated absence at the African Nations Cup, has seen Napoli accelerate their interest. Roma’s Lorenzo Pellegrini has also been lined up as a possible alternative.
– Juventus are monitoring the developing situation of midfielder Sandro Tonali at Newcastle United, Corriere dello Sport reports. With the player seemingly unsettled and «homesick,» a return to Italy is becoming increasingly likely. Juve are keeping an eye on Tonali, who is under contract at St James’ Park until the summer of 2029 and, as per Sky Sports, the 25-year-old doesn’t have a release clause in his Newcastle deal. Tonali stated this week that he’s happy on Tyneside, adding that he will assess his future on a year-by-year basis.
