TRENDING RUMORS

- Newcastle United have already tabled one bid for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, according to ESPN sources, but they face stiff competition from Manchester United. If the Magpies are unable to entice the 22-year-old Slovenia international to move to St. James' Park, they could turn their attention to Gonçalo Ramos of Paris Saint-Germain, the Daily Mail reports. The 24-year-old Portugal international registered 19 goals last term in just 1,811 minutes across all competitions, giving him a goal-contribution rate of one every 72 minutes.

- AC Milan have made an attempt to sign Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez, though a deal remains complicated as negotiations with the 26-year-old are difficult, according to Sky Sports Italia. Milan have already spoken to the Uruguay international, who is also the topic of interest from Al Hilal, but Liverpool are looking for a fee of over €50 million. Milan will make a serious attempt to bring in a new striker for new manager Massimiliano Allegri with alternative options being Stade Rennais' Arnaud Kalimuendo, Juventus' Dusan Vlahovic and Manchester United's Rasmus Hojlund.

- Tottenham want to replace outgoing forward Son Heung-Min by signing Rodrygo from Real Madrid, as reported by AS. Spurs have been closely monitoring the 24-year-old and have even asked Los Blancos for permission to speak with him, and while Rodrygo hasn't expressed a desire to leave, his playing time has been reduced under Xabi Alonso. Spurs are focusing on Bayern Munich defensive midfielder João Palhinha before deciding whether to go forward with an €80m move for Rodrygo.

EXPERT TAKE

ESPN's Liverpool correspondent Beth Lindop on the future of Darwin Núñez.

How do you solve a problem like Núñez? It's a question Liverpool fans have been pondering since the Uruguay international joined the club from Benfica for an initial €75m in the summer of 2022.

Last season always felt like a make-or-break campaign after he failed to hit the heights in his first two campaigns at Anfield. And he managed just five league goals in 30 appearances (eight as a starter). So, despite having endeared himself to supporters with his impressive work rate, it is no a surprise that manager Arne Slot is looking go into the market for a new No. 9 in the summer: first with a £79m move to land Hugo Ekitike and then a follow up bid of £110m for Newcastle's Alexander Isak.

Al Hilal, Atletico Madrid, Newcastle and others have been linked with Núñez before Milan, but it remains to be seen which clubs would want to replace their talisman with a player as unpredictable as him.
