TRENDING RUMORS

– Manchester United, Chelsea, and Liverpool are monitoring the situation of Bournemouth and USMNT midfielder Tyler Adams, according to The Daily Mail. Adams, 27, has made three appearances in the Premier League since returning from injury in the 0-0 draw against West Ham last month, and it is reported that all three Premier League clubs are considering a move for him in the summer. An offer worth around £40 million could be enough to land him, but any deal isn’t expected to take place until after the FIFA World Cup.

– Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City, and Liverpool have made contact with Bayern Munich regarding a €100 million move for winger Michael Olise, according to TEAMtalk. The Bundesliga side have reportedly dismissed inquiries to sign the 24-year-old from all three clubs, with Real Madrid and Barcelona also monitoring the situation, and Olise reportedly viewing LaLiga as a preferable destination. Meanwhile, Florian Plettenberg says that the Reds are set to change their focus to 19-year-old RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, who is seen as a more feasible signing at around €80 million. His impressive campaign of nine goals and five assists in 23 league matches has seen him linked with several teams across Europe.

– Bayern Munich are interested in Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen. Footmercato reports that the Bundesliga side have identified the 27-year-old as a potential future replacement for Harry Kane, 32, with manager Vincent Kompany having been impressed by his performances this season. It is reported that clubs in Saudi Arabia remain keen on Osimhen, who has scored 17 goals in 25 matches for the Lions across all competitions since joining them permanently from Napoli for a fee of €75 million in the summer.

– Barcelona are ready to step up their pursuit of Tottenham Hotspur defender Micky van de Ven. Sport reports that scouts have been sent to watch the 24-year-old as the Blaugrana look to acquire a left-footed center back, who is seen as a potential alternative to Internazionale‘s Alessandro Bastoni. Van de Ven has continued to be linked with an exit from Spurs amid the club’s poor run of form in the Premier League — they currently sit four points above the relegation zone ahead of their match against Crystal Palace on Wednesday.

– Borussia Dortmund winger Karim Adeyemi is stalling on signing a new contract and hopes to join a team in the Premier League, according to Bild. It is reported that the 24-year-old’s representatives have requested the inclusion of a release clause into any potential new deal at Signal Iduna Park, but the Bundesliga club are losing patience after failing to make any progress in negotiations. Adeyemi, who has previously been linked with Manchester United and Chelsea, will enter the final year of his deal in June.
