TRENDING RUMORS

- Al Hilal have offered Alexander Isak a tax-free wage of £600,000 ($807,000) a week in an effort to sign the Newcastle United striker, according to The Guardian. There would be further lucrative bonuses included if he wins the Saudi Pro League or AFC Champions League, and if he is top scorer. Sources have told ESPN that the 25-year-old is open to leaving Newcastle, with Liverpool the front-runners to sign him if he becomes available. However, even the Premier League champions would not be able to match Al Hilal's financial offer, while it is also unclear whether they could meet the £120m transfer fee that Newcastle would want.

- Real Madrid remain keen on signing Arsenal centre-back William Saliba but the Gunners are determined to keep hold of him, AS reports. The 24-year-old impressed Los Blancos during last season's UEFA Champions League quarterfinal tie between the two clubs. Even an offer worth over €100 million wouldn't be accepted by Arsenal, and manager Mikel Arteta doesn't want to hear anything about Real Madrid's interest. France international Saliba's contract runs until 2027.

- Bayern Munich have sent a new offer for Liverpool winger Luis Díaz that is an improvement on the proposal of €67.5m that was immediately rejected by the Reds, Sky Sports Deutschland reports. Negotiations between the clubs are ongoing with Díaz waiting for them to reach an agreement as the 28-year-old would like to join the Bavarians and could sign a deal that would run until at least 2029. Even so, the move could still fall through.

- Arsenal are ramping up their efforts to sign Crystal Palace attacking midfielder Eberechi Eze, reports The Independent. The Gunners aim to swiftly secure him once the deal for Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyökeres has been completed. The Gunners are Eze's top choice and they are hoping to agree to a £60m fee rather than meeting the 27-year-old's £68m release clause. There hasn't yet been any formal contact, but both sides will be flexible because of their positive relationship.

- United States midfielder Weston McKennie could be included in a swap deal that would see Roma midfielder Bryan Cristante join Juventus, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. This comes with McKennie's contract ending in 2026 and talks about a renewal having stalled. There have already been indirect contacts and the Giallorossi are open to bringing in McKennie, although they would rather swap the 26-year-old for Lorenzo Pellegrini, whose contract also ends next summer, but he is seen as less of a fit for the characteristics the Bianconeri want.
