The transfer chatter on Tuesday reads like a quiz of who’s watching whom, with clubs across England and Europe circling a handful of names.
Tottenham’s interest in the United States winger Christian Pulisic is said to have been flagged by Teamtalk, noting the club have reportedly approached AC Milan about the 27‑year‑old. Meanwhile, over in the north, Newcastle are understood to be probing a deal for Lille forward Matias Fernandez‑Pardo, 21, though Florian Plettenberg reports no concrete negotiations have materialised for the Belgium international.
The Merseyside rivalry continues to stir the market, as Patrick Berger of Sky Sport Germany relays that both Liverpool and Everton are linked with Stuttgart winger Jamie Leweling, 25, while Roma also pushes to sign the German. Adding to the Everton narrative, Athletic reports the Toffees are working on a second loan arrangement for Manchester City and England winger Jack Grealish.
Goalkeeper movements are also on the radar. Ben Jacobs tells us Liverpool are monitoring Genk’s 18‑year‑old custodian Lucca Brughmans, but any summer deal would not see an immediate move for the Belgian youth international. In the south, Mail says Crystal Palace are determined to keep England keeper Dean Henderson, 29, after a bid from Nottingham Forest.
The midfield and forward lines see a flurry of interest as well. Teamtalk notes that Crystal Palace and Fulham are in talks over a £25m‑ish fee for Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Hugo Larsson, 22. The Mail also points out that Palace have revived discussions with Marseille for 25‑year‑old Dutch midfielder Quinten Timber.
Further afield, Football Insider reports that Newcastle United, Aston Villa and Chelsea are all circling 20‑year‑old Cameroon striker Christian Kofane from Bayer Leverkusen. Over in Italy, Sky Sport Italy says Juventus remain considering a signing of Manchester United striker Joshua Zirkzee, 25, though any move would hinge on whether Jonathan David departs for Atletico Madrid.
All told, the rumor mill is humming, with a blend of established names and youthful prospects keeping the summer agenda anything but dull.
