Former Man City Star Julian Álvarez is eyeing a return to the Premier League and it’s Chelsea who is making inquiries. Initial offers are floating around €100M

Julián Alvarez, the Argentine forward who previously starred for Manchester City and now plies his trade with Atlético Madrid, is reportedly setting his sights on a potential return to English football after his current club has indicated their willingness to entertain offers during the upcoming summer transfer window. Chelsea are believed to have tabled a substantial bid in the vicinity of $100 million (£74.7 million, €86.1 million) as they look to bring the talented attacker back to the Premier League.

While Barcelona and Liverpool have both been mentioned as potential suitors pursuing Alvarez’s signature, it is Bayern Munich who appear to be seriously contemplating the most ambitious move, reportedly preparing a massive €130 million (£112.8 million, $150.9 million) proposal as they view him as the perfect successor to replace Harry Kane in their attacking lineup.

Barcelona have attempted to negotiate a bargain deal for Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford by putting forward an opening offer of €18 million (£15.6 million, $20.9 million), with additional performance-based bonuses that could add another €4 million to the total package. However, this proposal sits significantly below the established €30 million release clause and has been promptly turned down by Manchester United, who clearly have no intention of accepting such a discounted price for their academy graduate.

Arsenal have emerged as unexpected contenders in the race to sign Federico Dimarco, Inter’s accomplished wingback who has impressed with his performances in Serie A. However, the lifelong Nerazzurri supporter is anticipated to politely decline any advances from the Gunners, preferring instead to commit his future to San Siro by signing a new contract that is expected to come with a considerable increase in his wages.

Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konaté has turned down yet another contract proposal from the club, despite having only six months remaining on his existing agreement. While the French center-back isn’t reportedly demanding wages comparable to Virgil van Dijk’s £300,000 ($403,000) weekly salary, he remains unsatisfied with the financial terms currently being presented to him by the Anfield hierarchy.

Kobbie Mainoo is not only expected to remain at Manchester United for the rest of this campaign, but the club is also preparing to resume negotiations over extending his contract, which is currently set to expire in the summer of 2027. The Red Devils are keen to secure the young midfielder’s long-term future amid growing recognition of his importance to the squad. (Source: Fabrizio Romano)

Manchester City have sent a clear and unambiguous message to Real Madrid regarding Erling Haaland’s availability, making it explicitly known that the Norwegian striker will not be permitted to depart the Etihad Stadium for anything less than €200 million (£173.5 million, $232.2 million). If the Spanish giants were to proceed with such an astronomical bid and meet City’s valuation, the total investment in Haaland—when factoring in his substantial salary demands over the length of his contract—would approach approximately half a billion euros for this single player acquisition.
