Transfers: De Bruyne Linked to Al-Nassr, Man United Target Aston Villa Star, and More
It’s transfer deadline day in October, folks! While we’re still months away from the actual January window, some teams are already planning their summer moves. Cristiano Ronaldo has dropped a major bombshell, revealing his interest in bringing Kevin De Bruyne to Saudi Pro League giants Al-Nassr. But that’s not the only rumor circulating. Here are some of the hottest transfer talks from around the globe:
Ronaldo Eyes De Bruyne for Al-Nassr
Belgium’s superstar midfielder Kevin De Bruyne has less than a year left on his contract at Manchester City. The Citizens’ refusal to budge on their asking price may have left the 33-year-old feeling stuck, paving the way for Ronaldo to tempt him with an astronomical salary package at Al-Nassr.
Manchester United in talks for Xabi Alonso
Former Liverpool and Real Madrid legend Xabi Alonso has reportedly emerged as a serious candidate to succeed Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford. With the Manchester United job not set to become available until the summer, it looks like they’re willing to wait it out to secure their desired manager.
Aston Villa star set for £42m switch
Spanish defender Pau Torres, a standout player for Aston Villa this season, has allegedly become the target of Manchester United. The 27-year-old is set to join United in a £42m deal, potentially solidifying their leaky backline.
Liverpool stars coveted by Saudi club
Mo Salah, 32, and Virgil van Dijk, 33, have just a few months left on their contracts with Liverpool. With neither signing an extension, Egyptian powerhouse Al-Ahli are said to be lining up the dynamic duo as targets for a blockbuster double deal.
Robert Lewandowski has an out clause
As Poland’s Golden Boy nears the twilight of his career, Barca may face the risk of losing Lewandowski, 36, when his contract expires in summer 2025. With an out clause inserted, it remains to be seen if he’ll extend his stay in Catalonia or bid farewell.
Ansu Fati loan rumors heat up
At just 21, Ansu Fati’s stock has soared at Barca, where he made a few key contributions before struggling for minutes last season. Rumor has it that Barca are planning to loan out the pint-sized Spanish speedster to a European side in January, granting him vital playing time and possibly increasing his transfer value.
Nketiah shares transfer revelation
In an unexpected turn, England starlet Eddie Nketiah revealed the true reasons behind his Arsenal departure: to find a club that allows him more game time and improve. After linking up with Crystal Palace in the summer, it appears his decision paid off, securing him more minutes and recognition.
