Here’s the latest transfer news and rumors from the Premier League and beyond on Thursday morning, October 1.
The battle to convince Ousmane Dembele
Manchester United are reportedly doing their best to convince Ousmane Dembele to join them on loan.
The £ 95 million winger ideally wants to stay in Barcelona, and United is said to be in talks with their representatives to change their mind.
The Premier League team wants a loan deal, but Barca are willing to sell, and a discount fee of around £ 60 million is expected to be sufficient.
Respected journalist Fabrizio Romano revealed the player’s current reluctance, also claiming that he previously turned down Liverpool and Juventus this summer. But he says high-level talks are now taking place with the aim of securing an agreement.
Romano said: “Manchester United contacted Dembélé’s agent and is making a great effort to convince the player that he has already rejected offers from Liverpool and Juventus and always wanted to stay at Barcelona this summer.”
The strange £ 20 million Arsenal rumor
Manchester United reportedly responded to speculation that they are close to signing Arsenal manager Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
Reports in the German media claim that United are close to reaching a £ 20 million deal with the Gunners, who can play in wing positions or in midfield. It was reported that “the deal and the paperwork [was] 80 percent done. “
But United sources have told the Manchester Evening News that he is not a target.
The Old Trafford team is expected to sign Porto full-back Alex Telles in the coming days.
Brewster set for £ 23 million move in
Former Swansea City loan star Rhian Brewster is set for an impressive £ 23 million move to Sheffield United, according to reports.
The Sun reports that the Blades have submitted a £ 23 million offer, and the Premier League champions are willing to accept.
The 20-year-old impressed during a superb loan spell at Swansea last season, helping the Welsh team reach the championship play-offs.
United’s offer is said to be £ 18 guaranteed, plus another £ 5 million in potential add-ons. It will also include the buyback clause that Liverpool insists on.
The England Under-21 international also attracted the interest of Crystal Palace.
Spurs approach the forward
Tottenham are reportedly closing in on Benfica striker Carlos Vinicius.
The Brazilian scored 25 goals for his team last season and now appears to be on his way to North London.
The report in the mail Spurs are ready to give up Vinicius for the season with the option to buy him if he impresses.
