Trending rumors
Galatasaray are preparing a move for Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes, according to Fanatik. The 32-year-old has endured a difficult start to the season and has reportedly grown frustrated with the club’s hierarchy. His contract expires next summer, though United hold a one-year extension option, and he may be open to a departure. Meanwhile, United are considering a January approach for Barcelona left-back Alejandro Balde under more favorable terms, per Fabrizio Romano. The 23-year-old has seen limited LaLiga action this season, playing just 12 minutes, and Juventus are also monitoring his situation.
Barcelona, Liverpool, and Real Madrid are all interested in VfB Stuttgart defender Finn Jeltsch, per Sport. The 20-year-old has been on Barcelona’s radar since impressing manager Hansi Flick this summer, though several top European clubs are reportedly prepared to bid €50 million for the Germany international.
Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in Eintracht Frankfurt forward Younes Ebnoutalib, according to TEAMtalk. Scouts attended Frankfurt’s 1-0 victory over FC Cologne on Friday to evaluate the 23-year-old Germany international as Spurs seek attacking reinforcements for manager Roberto De Zerbi ahead of the January window.
Getafe are open to signing free-agent defender Sergio Ramos, per Radio Nacional de España. Club president Ángel Torres confirmed interest in reuniting the 40-year-old with former Real Madrid teammate Dani Carvajal, who recently joined the LaLiga side.
Bayern Munich are looking to move on defender Sacha Boey in January and would accept an offer around €30 million, according to Sport Bild. The Bundesliga champions are actively seeking suitors for the 26-year-old after failing to sell him in the summer.
