Alphonso Davies has emerged as a potential transfer target for Manchester United and Real Madrid, with the Canadian wing-back reportedly open to offers amid growing discontent at Bayern Munich. Davies’ agent has expressed frustration with Bayern’s handling of contract negotiations, describing the situation poorly managed. Meetings with interested clubs are set for January, signaling a possible move for the 24-year-old.
Meanwhile, Manchester City identified Valencia’s Pepelu as a temporary solution to Rodri’s injury. The 26-year-old Spanish midfielder has impressed City scouts, who see him as a seamless fit in the defensive midfield role. Southampton’s rising star Tyler Dibling is also attracting attention, with Manchester United and Aston Villa among the clubs monitoring the 18-year-old. German and Italian teams are also tracking the English midfielder, hinting at a competitive battle for his signature.
Crystal Palace appear resolute in their stance on Adam Wharton, with reports suggesting the club will reject advances from Manchester City and Arsenal for the 20-year-old England midfielder. Leicester City’s new manager, Ruud van Nistelrooy, is preparing a loan bid for Manchester United’s Toby Collyer. The 20-year-old midfielder is seen as a key target as Van Nistelrooy seeks to bolster his squad in January.
Celtic are reportedly eyeing Chelsea’s Carney Chukwuemeka for a potential loan move, with the 21-year-old English forward as an attractive addition to their attacking options. Barcelona have intensified their pursuit of Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah, whose contract expires next summer. The Catalan giants recently met with the agents of the 28-year-old German international, making them frontrunners for his signature. Additionally, Barcelona is keeping tabs on Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres and Lille forward Jonathan David as part of their long-term plans to replace Robert Lewandowski.
Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane may also be available on a free transfer next summer due to stalled contract negotiations with the German winger. Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna as their top managerial target should they part ways with Ange Postecoglou. Finally, a revelation from 2008 has surfaced, claiming Manchester City accidentally lodged a £35 million bid for Lionel Messi during Sheikh Mansour’s early days as the club’s owner.
