The summer transfer market always generates a wave of rumours, speculation and confirmations that keep football fans on the edge of their seats. This season, potential transfer news is hotter than ever, with big names and elite clubs involved in intense negotiations. From Alphonso Davies’ uncertain situation at Bayern Munich to Atlético Madrid’s renewed interest in Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, each story adds a new layer of intrigue to the footballing summer. Below, we explore the seven most interesting rumors and news of the moment, based on reliable sources in the sports field.
Alphonso Davies’ future is up in the air after the lack of progress in negotiations with Bayern Munich to renew his contract beyond 2025. According to the newspaper As, Real Madrid could take advantage of this situation to sign the Canadian full-back. Although the Bavarians have tried to retain him, the high salary and bonus demanded by Davies complicate things. Madrid watches with interest, hoping that Davies will remain firm to reduce the distance between his offer and the 50 million euros that Bayern is asking for.
Erik ten Hag appeared to have one foot on the way out of Manchester United after a disappointing season, but is now close to renewing his contract. According to Fabrizio Romano, the club has begun negotiations with the Dutch coach’s agents due to the lack of high-level alternatives. This change of course has surprised many, since the arrival of a new coach was expected after the poor results in the Champions League and the Premier League.
Atlético de Madrid are willing to sign Robin Le Normand from Real Sociedad, but will have to pay around €40 million, according to As. Although Real Sociedad will not give gifts, they could agree to include Javi Galán in the deal, which would reduce the cost to around 30-32 million. Le Normand, who has shown interest in joining Atlético, will not push for his departure, so negotiations could be prolonged.
Douglas Luiz’s agents have been in contact with FC Barcelona sporting director Deco to offer the Brazilian’s services, according to Sport. Although Aston Villa would be willing to negotiate his transfer, the cost of 70 million euros is unaffordable for the Catalans at this time.

Atlético de Madrid has revived its interest in Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, Tottenham midfielder, reports Daily Mail. The London club is willing to negotiate a lower price than last summer. Højbjerg, 28 years old and having played 39 games last season, is seen as a key piece to strengthen the red and white core. The negotiation is still ongoing, and Atlético hopes to close the incorporation of the Dane.
Chelsea have set their sights on Michael Olise to bolster their attack, according to GiveMeSport. Crystal Palace have valued the player at €70 million, and the Blues are already in negotiations to pay the amount in several installments. Olise, 22, has been a revelation at Crystal Palace, and Chelsea are willing to make a significant effort to add him to their squad, having already agreed contract terms with the player.
