PSG Talk

Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović is attracting serious interest this summer, with PSG, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and Aston Villa all reportedly eyeing a move for the Serbian international.

Although Vlahović is under contract through 2026, Juventus seem open to parting ways, in part due to his high wages putting pressure on the club’s finances. On the PSG side, the French champions are reportedly planning changes up front, with growing speculation that both Randal Kolo Muani and Gonçalo Ramos could be made available.

CaughtOffside previously reported that PSG started tracking Vlahović earlier this year, while Arsenal and Manchester United have also been linked—raising the possibility of a bidding war. With just one year remaining on his contract after this season, Juventus could be motivated to sell now rather than risk losing him for free in 2026.

Juventus plotting swap deals for unwanted striker?

Juventus are still having trouble finding a buyer for striker Dusan Vlahovic, and according to Gazzetta dello Sport, they may look to move him in a swap deal instead. One option on the table is a move to Atletico Madrid, with defender Nahuel Molina—valued by the Spanish side at €30 million—heading to Turin.

The report also reveals that another possibility would see the Serbian forward join AC Milan, potentially in exchange for Malick Thiaw or, more likely, Strahinja Pavlovic.

CaughtOffside recently claimed Newcastle United, Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest are exploring potential moves for the striker.

In addition, Manchester United are said to have opened discussions with Juventus about a possible swap deal involving Jadon Sancho. The winger is expected to leave Old Trafford this summer, and Juventus have long admired him—potentially making a deal that benefits both sides.

Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid is uncertain after an up-and-down showing at the FIFA Club World Cup, and with the transfer window open, speculation around a possible move is picking up.

An earlier report from Sports Zone suggested that Real Madrid no longer considers Rodrygo untouchable. His camp has reportedly held talks with Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool. PSG remain interested but are said to be proceeding more cautiously.

More recently, transfer insider Fabrizio Romano described the situation as complicated. Rodrygo is still strongly attached to Real Madrid and feels he has more to contribute, but he’s also aware he could have a bigger role elsewhere. Talks with the club are ongoing, and the final call may come down to him.

Liverpool have a clear path for Rodrygo

On Wednesday, Foot Mercato’s Josué Cassé reported that Rodrygo isn’t a target for PSG in response to Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg noting that Tottenham Hotspur aren’t in on the Brazilian.

He's not a target for PSG either 😉❌ https://t.co/yw0DPfkKec

Earlier this year, PSG sold Xavi Simons to RB Leipzig, and since then, the Dutch midfielder has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur.

Fabrizio Romano reported that Leipzig paid €80 million for Simons, with €55 million upfront. The 22-year-old signed a contract through June 2027, and PSG secured a sell-on clause as part of the deal.

CaughtOffside recently revealed that Simons could be available this summer for around €60 million and is open to moving to the Premier League. Discussions are already underway about a potential transfer to London, with Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham all in the mix as possible destinations for the Netherlands international.

Chelsea make progress on former PSG standout

On Wednesday, Romano reported that Chelsea are making good progress in talks with Simons over personal terms. Simons is eager for the move and open to joining Chelsea, with direct negotiations underway to finalize contract details.

According to Romano, Chelsea want to move quickly before club-to-club discussions with Leipzig begin.

Sky Sport Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reported that Chelsea held more talks with Simons’ camp this week. The club remain seriously interested and are pushing to strike a verbal agreement.

RB Leipzig are open to selling Simons and are seeking a total package worth at least €70 million, but Chelsea are hoping to bring that number down. If talks fall through, other clubs are prepared to jump into the mix.

PSG have stepped up their pursuit of Bournemouth defender Illya Zabarnyi in recent weeks, but negotiations remain tense with both clubs standing their ground.

According to L’Équipe’s Loïc Tanzi, PSG have opened talks for the 22-year-old, who is reportedly open to the move, especially with the FIFA Club World Cup on the horizon. However, Bournemouth continue to hold firm on their €70 million valuation.

RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins reports that PSG have submitted two offers so far, with the latest nearing €60 million, but there’s been little progress toward reaching an agreement.

PSG hold edge over Tottenham for Bournemouth standout

Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reported that Zabarnyi wants to join Paris Saint-Germain, and the French club is preparing to submit an improved offer.

A verbal agreement was reached with Zabarnyi in June, and PSG are expected to approach Bournemouth again soon. Despite recent reports, Romano notes that there have been no active talks with Tottenham so far.

Recently, CaughtOffside reported that Tottenham Hotspur have opened talks to sign Zabarnyi as a potential replacement for Cristian Romero.

Tottenham are reportedly one of the few clubs willing to meet the full asking price for the Bournemouth defender.

They’re said to be preparing an offer worth more than €70 million, including bonuses. Despite the interest, Zabarnyi remains focused on Paris Saint-Germain and isn’t currently engaging in discussions with other clubs.

Newcastle United are reportedly keeping tabs, as they look to find a reliable partner for Sven Botman ahead of their return to the Champions League. CaughtOffside adds that Chelsea have added Zabarnyi to their long-term center-back shortlist, while Liverpool are said to be exploring him as a possible successor to Ibrahima Konaté, though they have yet to make a formal move.

Earlier this year, PSG sold Xavi Simons to RB Leipzig, and the Dutch midfielder has since drawn interest from several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur.

Former PSG standout on Premier League radar

According to The Telegraph, Chelsea are interested in signing Simons but will need to offload some players first to make space for the RB Leipzig playmaker. Simons is reportedly open to making the move to Stamford Bridge.

This week, Romano reported that Arsenal are considering adding another attacking player after signing Viktor Gyökeres. Eberechi Eze and Simons are said to be among the options being looked at.

Sky Sport Germany’s Florian Plettenberg reported Monday that Chelsea are set to hold more talks with Xavi Simons’ camp later in the evening. The club remain seriously interested and are pushing to strike a verbal agreement.

Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid is up in the air following an inconsistent performance at the FIFA Club World Cup. With the transfer window now open, rumors about a potential move are gaining traction.

According to an earlier report from Sports Zone, Real Madrid no longer sees Rodrygo as untouchable. His representatives have reportedly spoken with Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool, while PSG remain interested but are said to be approaching things more cautiously.

More recently, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano described Rodrygo’s situation as complicated. The Brazilian has a strong connection to Real Madrid and believes he still has more to offer, but he’s also aware that he could play a more prominent role elsewhere. Discussions with the club are already underway, and the final decision appears to be his.

Another Premier League club eyes PSG transfer target

Eduardo Burgos of Diario AS reports that Tottenham are monitoring Rodrygo as a potential summer target. The operation remains complicated, with Liverpool, Arsenal, and Chelsea currently leading the race, while Bayern Munich are also in the mix.

The report adds that Rodrygo still needs to meet with Xabi Alonso and the club to discuss his future. Real Madrid are looking to generate funds.

Will Inter Milan secure former PSG standout?

Tuttomercatoweb’s Marco Conterio reported on Monday that Inter Milan are looking for a big signing in attack, and Ademola Lookman of Atalanta is not the only target: there has been direct contact, and talks are still ongoing between sporting director Piero Ausilio and the super agent Ali Barat.

Simons’ contract expires in two seasons, and RB Leipzig would prefer not to keep him until one year before expiration, so a sale is possible now to avoid losing a valuable asset.

Moreover, Romano reported Friday that Chelsea and Arsenal are among the clubs closely monitoring Xavi Simons this summer. Simons is expected to leave Leipzig—a decision that’s been clear since May—and several top Premier League sides are well aware of the situation.

That said, no formal offers or negotiations have taken place yet. As for Barcelona, Romano says nothing concrete is happening on that front.

However, Bild notes that Simons is still looking for a new club as the window opens. While several Premier League teams—including Newcastle—remain interested, he’s reportedly not keen on a move to northeast England. There are also questions about his attitude, which could give some clubs pause.

Randal Kolo Muani made a solid impression during his loan spell at Juventus last season, finishing with 10 goal contributions in 19 appearances across all competitions.

PSG are hoping his time in Turin helped boost his market value ahead of the summer transfer window. The club is reportedly looking to recoup at least half of the €95 million it paid to sign him from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2023.

Kolo Muani struggled to find consistent minutes under Luis Enrique, starting just two games all season. His long-term future remains uncertain and could depend on how things shake out under Juventus’ new coaching staff.

After Thiago Motta’s exit, Igor Tudor took over as manager. Kolo Muani had to work for his place in the lineup early on but earned more regular playing time as the 2024-25 season went on. Juventus kept him through the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup, but now that the tournament is over, the French striker will soon have a decision to make about his next step.

What’s the latest on Randal Kolo Muani leaving PSG

Kolo Muani is back at PSG, but that might not last. According to Calciomercato (via Le10Sport), Juventus are looking to bring the French forward back, ideally on a loan deal. The club’s manager, Igor Tudor, is reportedly pushing to have the striker available for their summer training camp, scheduled for July 24 at Continassa.

According to a previous report from Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus were hoping to secure another loan for the 26-year-old, and PSG initially seemed open to the idea.

However, the Club World Cup semifinalists are now only willing to consider a permanent transfer worth €40 million. Juventus’ only remaining hope is that PSG change course and revisit the loan option.

In April, GIVEMESPORT reported that Tottenham Hotspur are ready to make another move for the French forward if Juventus chooses not to make his loan permanent.
