PSG Talk

AC Milan are starting to position themselves as a serious player in the summer striker market, joining Tottenham Hotspur and PSG in the hunt. PSG, meanwhile, seem open to moving on from Randal Kolo Muani, and there’s even talk that Gonçalo Ramos could be on the way out as well.

One of the top names on PSG’s radar is Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović. According to CaughtOffside, the French side began tracking the Serbian international earlier this year, and with his price tag becoming more reasonable, a summer move is starting to look realistic.

Arsenal and Manchester United are also monitoring Vlahović closely, which could set up a potential bidding war. With just one year left on his contract, Juventus may be more willing to sell now rather than risk losing him for nothing in 2026.

Are AC Milan favorite to land PSG, Tottenham-linked attacker?

According to TBR Football’s chief correspondent Graeme Bailey, intermediaries have approached several Premier League clubs about Vlahović. Still, despite the interest from England, it looks like the striker is more likely to stay in Italy.

“There is interest in England in Vlahovic, but I can confirm no offers are on the table in the Premier League for him, as yet,” Bailey told TBR. “There was a suspicion amongst the clubs that he was waiting for other interest, and now something has come up at Milan with Allegri’s move to the club.

“I am told that, as it stands, they are firm favourites for Vlahović, but that could change. If that does happen, then we could see Premier League interest materialise, but at this point it has not.”

A previous report from GIVE ME SPORT says Tottenham might have a chance to sign Vlahović at a bargain price this summer. Juventus are said to be willing to let the Serbian striker go for as little as £20 million, as he continues to struggle to find his best form. Vlahović has reportedly shown interest in starting fresh in the Premier League.

While Juventus would prefer closer to £35 million, they understand they may have to accept a lower fee to move him on. The club is actively seeking a buyer, which could potentially lower the price if Tottenham or another team makes a serious offer.

Tottenham are keeping a close eye on the situation and could increase their interest in the coming weeks. Despite not living up to expectations since joining Juventus, Vlahović is still seen as a player with plenty of potential, the report adds.

PSG looked to strengthen their midfield last summer and identified Palmeiras standout Richard Ríos as a top target.

The Colombian midfielder impressed at the 2024 Copa América, playing a key role in his country’s run to the final before falling to Argentina.

In August 2024, Antena 2 Deportes reported that PSG submitted a €20 million bid for the 24-year-old, who had also drawn interest from AC Milan and Manchester United. However, despite PSG’s efforts, UOL revealed that Palmeiras’ president made it clear Ríos wasn’t for sale—even with the Ligue 1 side pushing their offer to €20 million.

Does PSG have no interest in Palmeiras’ star?

A recent report revealed that PSG are in discussions with Palmeiras for their midfielder. Luis Campos has reportedly given the green light, and Luis Enrique is said to want the player to bolster his midfield. The deal could total around €30 million.

However, journalist Arthur Perrot quickly dismissed the rumor. On his X account, the PSG specialist for RMC Sport responded to a tweet citing South American press reports with two red Xs, indicating the claim is false. It therefore appears PSG are not pursuing Ríos.

Back in February, CaughtOffside reported that West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Tottenham were all closely monitoring the progress of the Colombian midfielder, with plans to potentially make a move this summer.

However, none of the three Premier League clubs are willing to pay his €100 million release clause. Tottenham were especially keen during the January window, but talks never moved past the early stages as Palmeiras refused to budge on their asking price.

PSG have players like Xavi Simons and Hugo Ekitike, for whom they have a sell-on clause. However, another player whose future should interest PSG supporters on whether he gets sold this summer is Stade Rennais’ Arnaud Kalimuendo.

L’Equipe reported in 2022 that Rennes and PSG agreed to an estimated €25 million transfer for Kalimuendo, including bonuses. The deal also includes a percentage of any future resale of the forward.

Since joining Rennes in 2022, Kalimuendo has recorded 40 goals and 14 assists in 112 appearances across all competitions. This production from the 23-year-old is now leading to interest from the Premier League.

Tottenham step up efforts for former PSG ace

According to a report from L’Equipe, Tottenham Hotspur have stepped up their pursuit of a new striker, targeting Rennes standout Arnaud Kalimuendo.

With the transfer window now open, the report claims Tottenham officials have initiated talks with their counterparts at Rennes to negotiate a potential deal for the forward.

However, Tottenham face competition, as the report also notes that Newcastle United and Bayer Leverkusen are showing interest in Kalimuendo as well.

Kalimuendo is expected to be a key addition and will likely cost around €30 million (£26 million), as he has just two years left on his contract.

Meanwhile, L’Équipe adds that other clubs being alerted to the striker’s availability has prompted Daniel Levy and the Spurs hierarchy to intensify their efforts to complete a deal. The report adds that Tottenham have now made direct contact with Rennes to begin formal negotiations over the transfer.

However, it’s worth noting that no official bid has been submitted yet, as Spurs look to gauge how much they’ll need to pay to secure the signing.

PSG finally captured the UEFA Champions League trophy Saturday night — and they did it in style. The Ligue 1 giants dominated Inter Milan 5-0 at the Allianz Arena to secure their first-ever title in Europe’s top club competition.

The team from Paris came out strong, with Achraf Hakimi and Désiré Doué scoring in the first half to take a 2-0 lead into the break. After halftime, Luis Enrique’s squad kept the pressure on.

Doué scored again, and goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Senny Mayulu put the result beyond doubt — delivering the long-awaited European crown to the French capital.

On top of that, PSG’s victory sets up a UEFA Super Cup showdown against Tottenham Hotspur, who won the UEFA Europa League, to kick off the 2025-26 season.

Tottenham must improve to challenge PSG for UEFA Super Cup

On Sunday, TalkSPORT‘s Tony Cascarino noted that if Tottenham want to edge PSG, they’re going to need to improve their squad vastly to win this trophy over the Parisians. Moreover, Spurs don’t want to be the latest Premier League club to fall to PSG this year.

“I think Spurs need a few signings,” Cascarino said. “I think it’s a great test for Spurs because obviously, you know, next season is going to be big for them. You know, European champion, Champions League as well.

“It’s going to be big for them, and they’ve witnessed last night—anybody who’s associated with football witnessed the performance last night—knows that this team they’re going to be up against is going to be one of the leading candidates for the team every year in the Champions League.

“Are going to be seriously dangerous, because they are. Their work rate is exceptional. I can’t remember a team, in every position on the pitch, that works so hard as they do.”

Milan Skriniar’s stint at Paris Saint-Germain appears to be nearing its end. The former Inter Milan center-back has joined Fenerbahçe on loan for the rest of the 2024-25 season.

The 30-year-old signed with PSG as a free agent after leaving Inter and is under contract with the Ligue 1 side through 2028. While Skriniar was a regular in the lineup last season, he has since fallen out of favor under coach Luis Enrique. After making 37 appearances in his first campaign, he’s no longer part of Enrique’s plans this year.

His move to Fenerbahçe is a straight loan with no option to buy, and PSG are expected to look for a permanent move in the summer. According to Fichajes, Tottenham have recently added Skriniar to their list of defensive targets.

With uncertainty around Cristian Romero’s future, Spurs are eyeing experienced reinforcements at the back—and Skriniar, with his proven record in Serie A and the Champions League, could be a strong option.

Another Premier League club is keen on Milan Skriniar

CaughtOffside reports that Wolverhampton Wanderers are eyeing a bold move for Skriniar despite the PSG defender earning more than £200,000 per week.

Skriniar is starting to feel the flip side of free agency. Lured to Paris by a lucrative contract, the Slovak center-back now finds himself in a tough spot just two years later—struggling to find another club willing or able to match his current wages.

Speaking to Sport24Sk, Skriniar’s agent, Martin Petras, admitted the situation isn’t easy for his client.

“Skriniar made a name for himself in Italy, and for that reason, he is still in the minds of the top Serie A clubs. However, I think his move to AC Milan or another Italian club is unlikely.”

“Milan has a colossal salary, and in Italy, they will probably not be able to afford it with the taxes and contributions. With all these expenses, they would almost have to double it and pay him nearly 20 million euros per year. In my opinion, not just anyone in Serie A would pay that today.”

Last summer, Paris Saint-Germain expressed interest in Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman, but a deal never materialized. However, recent reports suggest the Ligue 1 club is still keen on signing the Nigerian forward.

Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano recently shared via Viva El Fútbol that PSG’s interest in Lookman remains strong. The player is now contemplating his future and could make a move this summer. However, competition for his signature is fierce, with Juventus also in the race.

According to GIVE ME SPORT, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur have been closely monitoring the 27-year-old over the past year, with scouts from all four clubs recently keeping an eye on him.

TEAMtalk previously reported that West Ham United is among several clubs tracking the Atalanta winger. With multiple Premier League teams weighing a move for Lookman, Atalanta are reportedly asking for more than £60 million.

Is Ademola Lookman Premier League-bound?

On Monday, TBR Football reported, citing sources, that the representatives of Ademola Lookman have approached both Arsenal and Tottenham.

The report also states that Lookman, who started his career at Charlton’s academy, is seriously considering a move back to England. Liverpool, Aston Villa, West Ham, and Newcastle are also said to be aware of the situation, along with Arsenal and Tottenham.

Lookman reportedly wanted to leave Atalanta last summer, but the Serie A side stood firm. Now, though, the Bergamo-based club is ready to let the Wandsworth-born forward go this summer.

Paris Saint-Germain was interested in signing Ademola Lookman from Atalanta last summer, but the move never materialized. However, a recent report suggests the Ligue 1 club are still keen on landing the Nigerian forward.

Matteo Moretto and Fabrizio Romano, via Viva El Fútbol, reported that PSG’s interest in Lookman remains strong. The 27-year-old is now evaluating his options ahead of a potential summer move, but Juventus are also in the race for his signature.

According to GIVE ME SPORT, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle United, and Tottenham Hotspur have been closely monitoring Lookman over the past year, with scouts from all four clubs recently keeping tabs on him.

TEAMtalk previously reported that West Ham United are among several clubs tracking the Atalanta winger. With strong Premier League interest, Atalanta are reportedly holding out for more than £60 million.

What’s the latest on Ademola Lookman?

According to Fichajes, Lookman is increasingly likely to leave Italy, with a move to the Premier League as his most probable destination. The Nigerian forward has been in strong form for Atalanta, drawing interest from several top English clubs.

Atalanta’s board reportedly prefers to sell him outside of Italy, giving Premier League teams an edge in the race for his signature.

Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea are all in the mix for the 27-year-old, with offers expected to be around €45 million, plus performance-based bonuses, per the report.

Last summer, Paris Saint-Germain showed interest in Dean Huijsen as they sought to strengthen their defense, but the Spanish center-back ultimately joined AFC Bournemouth. If PSG targets him again, they’ll face stiff competition.

PSG added Willian Pacho to their backline, but with Milan Škriniar likely to make his loan move to Fenerbahçe permanent, the club could still be in the market for another center-back this summer.

Huijsen has continued to impress in England with steady performances in the Premier League, earning widespread praise. His strong form has caught the attention of several top clubs.

As a transfer battle brews for the young defender, one club that seems poised to make a serious push is Liverpool.

The suitors for Dean Huijsen continue to grow

Manchester City have reportedly entered the race to sign Dean Huijsen this summer, according to GiveMeSport (h/t AS). The 19-year-old Spanish Under-21 international, considered one of Europe’s top center-back prospects, will have his release clause activated next summer.

He’s been impressing under Andoni Iraola, and several European clubs are interested in securing his services. CaughtOffside previously reported, citing sources, that Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and PSG are all tracking Huijsen.

The 19-year-old has a release clause of around £50 million, but that figure could rise if he signs a new contract with Bournemouth.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have secured Matheus Cunha with a long-term contract extension, despite significant interest in him during the winter transfer window.

Rumors surrounding his future persist, though. Cunha has become a key player for Wolves, impressing in various attacking roles.

Whether he’s playing as an attacking midfielder, second striker, or center-forward, the Brazilian has adapted quickly and made a real impact.

His performances have drawn the attention of top clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Paris Saint-Germain, all of whom are reportedly keeping an eye on him, according to Fichajes.

Although Wolves value Cunha highly, reports suggest they may entertain offers above €70 million. Sky Sports News also revealed that Nottingham Forest made a club-record bid of around £60 million for him during the winter window.

Premier League clubs keen on Matheus Cunha this summer

Fichajes reports that Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, and Chelsea are actively considering triggering the £62 million release clause in his contract with Wolves.

Recently, journalist Graeme Bailey spoke about Cunha’s future and noted that Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group will have to cough up a lot of money to get a deal done for Cunha.

“He’s clearly one they’re aware of, they like him,” Bailey told RousingTheKop. “He’s had a fantastic season and he’ll certainly be in contention but he won’t be cheap. He’s certainly on Liverpool’s radar, though, as with a few others.”

Last summer, Paris Saint-Germain showed interest in Dean Huijsen as they looked to bolster their defense, but the Spanish center-back ended up joining AFC Bournemouth instead. If PSG makes another move for him, they’ll have plenty of competition.

PSG strengthened their backline with Willian Pacho, but with Milan Škriniar likely to make his loan to Fenerbahçe permanent, they could be in the market for another center-back this summer.

Huijsen has continued to impress in England, delivering consistent performances in the Premier League and earning plenty of praise. His strong form hasn’t gone unnoticed, drawing interest from several top clubs.

While a transfer battle is shaping up for the young defender, one club that appears to be ready to make a serious run is Liverpool.

Liverpool could make an aggressive push for Dean Huijsen

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports that Liverpool are making strong progress in their push to strengthen the squad, with sporting director Richard Hughes working on the club’s first major summer signing. Meanwhile, interest in a top Bournemouth star is gaining momentum.

“I can confirm once again to you that Liverpool are really, really advancing in the process to identify the center-back they want to sign in the summer,” Romano told his YouTube channel. “Liverpool will go for an important center-back.

“In an internal meeting they had with Richard Hughes, with people on the board involved and Arne Slot too, they all agreed on bringing in an important center-back in the summer transfer window.

“When I say important, it could be an important talent, it could be an established player. But my information is that Liverpool want to invest in young players for present and future, so this could be the view.

“Let’s see what happens; we know their position on [Dean] Huijsen. Liverpool, Chelsea, Bayern, and Newcastle are all keen on signing him. There will be many clubs in the race.

“Liverpool are also monitoring other players, actively working on the new centre-back, working to identify who is the player they really, really want to bring in.”

CaughtOffside previously reported, citing sources, that Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and PSG are all tracking Huijsen.

The 19-year-old has a release clause of around £50 million, but that figure could rise if he signs a new contract with Bournemouth.
