All the rumors and news about the transfer market: De Bruyne, Leny Yoro… and more

This summer’s transfer market is in full swing and the rumors and news about possible transfers do not stop. From young promises to established stars, the big European clubs are moving to strengthen their squads. Below, we present a summary of the most notable rumors and news of the moment, with sources and analysis included.

The young French central defender Leny Yoro is at the center of attention in the transfer market. With one more year left on his contract with Lille, Real Madrid and Manchester United are fighting to sign him. According to Marca, the Red Devils are willing to pay the 60 million euros that Lille is asking for, a figure that the whites do not seem willing to easily match. Nacho Fernández’s decision about his continuity in Madrid will be crucial to determine the real interest of the meringues in Yoro.

Atlético de Madrid, after the departure of Memphis Depay and doubts about the future of its other forwards, has set its eyes on Fiorentina’s Nicolás González. La Nazione reports that the Argentine, valued at 35 million euros, could be an interesting solution for the red and white forward. With 14 goals and 5 assists last season, González presents himself as a versatile and effective option for Diego Simeone’s team.

Real Madrid remains interested in Alphonso Davies, but not at any price. Central Defense reports that Bayern Munich proposed an exchange including Eduardo Camavinga or Aurélien Tchouameni, an offer that the whites flatly rejected. The Canadian’s contract with Bayern expires in 2025, and although the German club wants to retain him, Real Madrid continues to evaluate alternatives to strengthen its defense without compromising its young talents.

Sport reveals that Real Sociedad midfielder Mikel Merino is gaining interest from FC Barcelona. With 8 goals and 5 assists in 45 games, the 27-year-old Navarrese player has proven to be a key piece in his team. His contract expires in 2025, and although Real Sociedad wants to keep him, Barça’s interest could accelerate his departure for the Camp Nou, seeking to strengthen their squad for next season.

Chelsea will not facilitate the departure of Conor Gallagher, a player in the sights of Atlético de Madrid and Aston Villa. According to Sky Sports, the Blues will only consider offers higher than €58 million. Gallagher, who has had an outstanding season with 7 goals and 9 assists, is considered vital in Chelsea’s scheme. This high valuation complicates the aspirations of Atlético de Madrid, which is looking for a robust midfielder for the next season.

Borussia Dortmund would be willing to consider offers for Karim Adeyemi, as long as they reach at least 30 million euros, according to Bild. Although the club’s sporting director had denied the possible sale of him, the post-Champions League situation has changed. Adeyemi, with 14 goals and 8 assists in 66 games, has attracted the interest of several Premier League teams. His future at Dortmund appears uncertain, and a suitable offer could facilitate his departure from the German club.

Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City’s driving force, could be contemplating a change of scenery after a season plagued by injuries. According to statements to HLN, the Belgian, tempted by an offer from Saudi Arabia, is considering his future with City, where he has a contract until 2025. His words leave open the possibility of a new destination, which could mark the end of an era in Pep Guardiola’s team if he decides to accept an exotic adventure away from England.
