Summer Transfer Window Buzz
As the summer transfer window approaches, speculation around player movements heats up. One player making headlines is Liverpool’s Darwin Núñez, who is emerging as a prime candidate to depart Anfield.
Darwin Núñez’s Possible Departure
Reports indicate that the 25-year-old striker is all but certain to leave, with Napoli showing interest. According to renowned journalist Fabrizio Romano, Núñez is open to offers from both European clubs and those in Saudi Arabia, which could lead to further discussions in the near future. Last season, he managed to score five goals in 30 league outings, a tally that has not diminished interest from various clubs.
Internazionale’s Squad Strengthening
Meanwhile, Internazionale is focusing on strengthening their squad with an eye on Manchester United’s Rasmus Højlund. As per Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italian side, which has an aging squad, aims to inject youth into their roster. The 22-year-old Danish striker is seen as a key target, with hopes he can replicate the promise he previously displayed in Serie A. Additionally, Germany’s Nick Woltemade, who made a splash by scoring a hat trick in the U21 European Championships, could also be a potential option for the club.
Manchester United’s Interest in Ekitike
In other news, Manchester United has thrown its hat into the ring for Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike. According to Florian Plettenberg from Sky Sports Deutschland, United’s interest is concrete as they seek to compete with Liverpool and Chelsea for the 22-year-old forward, who had an impressive season with 22 goals and 11 assists over 47 matches. The Bundesliga club is demanding around €100 million for him.
Negotiations for Theo Hernández Fall Through
Conversely, AC Milan and Atlético Madrid have seen their negotiations for left-back Theo Hernández collapse. Although the La Liga club initially expressed interest in the 27-year-old Frenchman, they have shifted their focus to exploring other options.
Milan’s Move for Dusan Vlahovic
In a potential boost for AC Milan, they’ve made a move for Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic. The club’s new manager, Massimiliano Allegri, reportedly favors the 25-year-old Serbian as a key addition to enhance their attacking lineup. However, for the deal to advance, Vlahovic would likely need to agree to a pay cut from his current annual wage of €12 million. Further discussions are anticipated between the two clubs in the following days.
