Manchester City are reportedly keeping tabs on Vinicius Jr as uncertainty continues over the Brazilian star’s future at Real Madrid. The 25-year-old forward has just over a year remaining on his current deal at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Meanwhile, Bayern Munich have opened discussions with Newcastle United over a possible move for England winger Anthony Gordon. Reports suggest the two clubs remain around £20m apart in their valuation of the player.
In France, Bradley Barcola could leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer, with Arsenal, Liverpool and Barcelona all reportedly interested in the 23-year-old attacker.
At Tottenham Hotspur, manager Roberto De Zerbi is said to be pushing for the club to make Joao Palhinha’s loan move from Bayern Munich permanent in a deal worth around £27m.
Barcelona are also monitoring Julian Alvarez, although financial limitations could complicate any move for the Atletico Madrid striker.
Elsewhere, Dusan Vlahovic is reportedly waiting to see if Barcelona or Bayern Munich make an approach before his contract with Juventus expires.
Manchester City are also discussing a contract extension with Croatia defender Josko Gvardiol.
In other transfer developments, Brighton & Hove Albion, Leeds United and West Ham United are all believed to be interested in Austrian defender Jannik Schuster, potentially challenging Brentford for his signature.
Everton may also face competition from Bayer Leverkusen in the race to sign Burnley defender Maxime Esteve.
Finally, German side Eintracht Frankfurt are reportedly considering the future of manager Albert Riera, who only took charge earlier this year.
