Man Utd exploring move for Gustavo Nunes
Manchester United reportedly had a scout in Brazil last week to watch Gremio attacker Gustavo Nunes, with the Red Devils weighing up a move for him during this summer's transfer window. The 18-year-old was a half-time substitute in the Copa Libertadores clash against Huachipato, with a scout from the 20-time English champions said to have been in attendance to monitor his display. According to the Daily Mail, Man United are keen on Nunes, with the club currently looking at the South American market due to the inflated prices in Europe. The report, though, claims that Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal are also keen on the teenager, with four of the biggest clubs in England therefore potentially battling for his signature.
Arsenal enter race to sign Benjamin Sesko
Arsenal are reportedly among the clubs interested in securing a summer transfer for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko but are likely to face competition from Chelsea and Manchester United for his signature. According to The Standard, Arsenal, who were knocked out of the Champions League in midweek by Bayern Munich, have now entered the race for Sesko, joining their Premier League counterparts. The report adds that Leipzig are becoming more resigned to the possibility of losing the attacker in the summer and are already actively searching the market for potential replacements ahead of the 2024-25 campaign.
Toney wants his wages to be more than Fernandes at Man Utd
Ivan Toney has reportedly demanded a staggering salary surpassing that of the club's captain, Bruno Fernandes, according to The Sun. His anticipated weekly wages of £250,000 would not only make him one of the highest-paid players at United but also see him surpass Fernandes who is at £240,000. If United can orchestrate a mass player exodus this summer as part of their restructuring plans, they might find themselves in a favourable position to accommodate Toney's hefty salary demands while optimizing their wage bill.
Guler wants to fight for his place at Real Madrid
Amid speculation surrounding his future, Arda Guler has affirmed his commitment to Real Madrid for the upcoming season, dismissing rumours of a potential departure. A report from Estadio Deportivo suggests that despite experiencing a lack of playing time, the 19-year-old midfielder is determined to stay at Los Blancos. Since his €20 million move from Fenerbahce last summer, Guler has seen minimal action on the pitch, accumulating just 98 minutes of game time with Real Madrid. This has prompted rumors of interest from Sevilla, who reportedly reached out to Guler's representatives with a proposal for the 2024-25 season.
