Fern\u00e1ndez has interest from Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain, but two Saudi Arabian clubs have also reached out to try and strike a deal for the Chelsea star.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal are reported to have Tino Livramento and RB Leipzig centre back Castello Lukeba on their list of summer targets. Everton are exploring moves for Ben White and are also looking into a deal to re-sign Man City defender John Stones, who is a target for Wrexham and clubs across both Major League Soccer and the Saudi Pro League.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester United have reached out to Ajax to explore the terms of a move for 20-year-old Mika Godts, who has been compared to Eden Hazard. United also have Be\u015fikta\u015f midfielder Wilfred Ndidi on their summer radar and plan to explore a swap deal involving goalkeeper Altay Bay\u0131nd\u0131r after a failed January approach.<\/p>\n<p>Manchester City are preparing for the possible departure of Bernardo Silva and are tracking Como forward Nico Paz as a potential replacement. Rodri has informed Man City of his desire to leave at the end of the season. His priority is to return to La Liga, where Real Madrid are known admirers, but a move to Major League Soccer or the Saudi Pro League remains feasible.<\/p>\n<p>Tottenham Hotspur have made contact with representatives of Borussia Dortmund striker Serhou Guirassy as they pursue a summer signing. Liverpool have shown interest in 18-year-old Santos left back Vin\u00edcius Lira.<\/p>\n<p>Inter are considering selling Alessandro Bastoni, whose agent has spoken with Barcelona as the club looks to raise funds for summer business. Barcelona remain interested in Bastoni while also considering Pau Torres and Nico Schlotterbeck. Real Madrid want to sell Dani Ceballos this summer but face a battle convincing the midfielder to leave; the only team he wants to join is Real Betis. Real Madrid are also reported to be pushing six players towards the exit door: Dani Carvajal, David Alaba, Antonio R\u00fcdiger, Ferland Mendy, Fran Garc\u00eda and Eduardo Camavinga.<\/p>\n<p>West Ham United midfielder Tom\u00e1\u0161 Sou\u010dek is likely to leave this summer as his salary would be difficult to sustain in the event of relegation, and manager Nuno Esp\u00edrito Santo does not see him as part of the future. Manchester United are also ready to listen to offers of $28.7 million (\u20ac25 million, \u00a321.6 million) for striker Joshua Zirkzee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pulisic&#8217;s price, Rodri&#8217;s desire to leave, and multiple Premier League clubs tracking summer targets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8884,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[172,1397,1163],"tags":[475,984,988],"class_list":["post-8885","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-epl","category-transfer-news","category-transfers","tag-alessandro-bastoni","tag-ben-white","tag-bernardo-silva"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8885","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8885"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8885\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8884"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8885"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8885"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8885"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
