Kylian Mbappe REJECTS Al-Hilal’s mega offer

July 25, 2023 No Comments

Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe has reportedly rejected the proposal to join Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal. PSG put the French winger on sale this summer because he refused to sign a new contract at the club with one year left in his current deal. The French club believe he has an agreement to move to Real Madrid next year and have told him he has to find a new club as they do not want to lose him for free next summer.

They now granted the Saudi Arabian club permission to speak to Mbappe. However, Madrid-based news outlet Relevo reports that Mbappe ‘does not want to play in Saudi Arabia’ despite Al-Hilal’s stunning bid. Per the report, the Frenchman is determined to see out the final year of his contract with the reigning French champions, even if that means he will sit on the bench throughout next season. His decision would represent a significant challenge for new PSG boss Luis Enrique, particularly should the reigning champions struggle. The 24-year-old was already left out of PSG’s pre-season tour of Japan and South Korea, with his future a significant headache for the Ligue 1 side.

Manchester United won’t OVERPAY for Rasmus Hojlund despite Atalanta’s huge asking price

July 25, 2023 No Comments

Manchester United are reportedly willing to pay only £60m for their number one striker target Rasmus Hojlund. The Danish international has emerged as United’s priority signing to fill the number nine position ahead of the new season. United have been in talks with Atalanta for weeks, and it is understood that they are ready to submit their opening bid. However, according to Sportsmail, the Red Devils are determined not to spend above £60m on Hojlund, who only cost Atalanta £15m when he moved from Sturm Graz eleven months ago. Read more: Chelsea submit £39m bid for Michael Olise Atalanta values the 20-year-old at £86m, but that is way more than what United expected to pay for a striker who scored nine goals in Serie A last season. The Old Trafford side are operating on a tight budget due to FFP rules. Having already spent £110m on the acquisition of Mason Mount and Andre Onana, United will already have to sell players to sign Hojlund beyond the £60m mark they have in mind. According to sources, paying an additional £10m on the Danish striker will affect any future business due to Financial Fair Play restrictions. Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag’s side is also interested in Eintracht Frankfurt’s Randal Kolo Muani. However, they have ruled themselves out of the race for Kane even though Spurs owner Joe Lewis has told chairman Daniel Levy to sell the England captain this summer if he doesn’t extend his one-year contract at the club.

Tottenham owner makes decision on Harry Kane’s future amid Daniel Levy stand-off

July 24, 2023 No Comments

Tottenham Hotspur owner Joe Lewis has reportedly told the club’s chairman Daniel Levy to sell Harry Kane this summer. Kane’s future remains up in the air this summer amid a contract standoff with Tottenham. The striker is keen on leaving, but Tottenham want to keep him beyond this summer. Although Joe Lewis owns Tottenham, the British billionaire is not involved in the day-to-day running of the club. His company ENIC Group have employed Levy to manage Spurs, with the club chairman having the final say on transfers. Levy has been unwilling to entertain any interest in the Kane despite concrete interest from Bayern Munich. The Bundesliga giants are desperate to sign Kane and have made two huge bids for his services,. They are expected to submit a third bid this week.

But now, according to 90min via Topsixfootball, Spurs’ owner Lewis has intervened and instructed Levy to sell Kane this summer rather than lose him for nothing in 12 months. Per the report, Lewis has told his chairman that the club must sell Kane this summer if he does not agree to a contract extension. Tottenham have offered Kane a new contract and promised to make him Premier League’s highest-paid player if he signs a new deal. But the Englishman is keen on moving to Bayern Munich, where he believes he can win trophies. With Lewis intervening in the saga, it is expected that Levy will allow Kane to leave when Bayern submit their third bit, which is set to be beyond £70 million.

Chelsea have reportedly submitted a £39m bid to sign Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise. The Blues want to sign the French star this summer and have made an initial proposal to wade off interest from Manchester City, who are also interested. According to French sports publication RMC Sport, Chelsea tabled an initial offer for the 21-year-old who is interested in the project at Stamford Bridge under Mauricio Pochettino. Read more: Manchester United winger SAYS NO to Everton Pochettino is assembling a squad that can fight for the title this season after a poor end to last season that saw Chelsea finish in the bottom half. The club have already signed Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson this summer, with a deal for Moises Caicedo expected. However, Pochettino is a big admirer of Olise and has already spoken to him, with the younger winger having reportedly agreed to join Chelsea if a deal can be reached. Per the report, although he has a £35m release clause in his contract, Chelsea have added an extra £4m to their bid to ensure they secure the deal for Olise. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace are trying to convince him to stay. Pochettino’s side will likely need to trigger that buyout clause as Roy Hodgson’s side are reluctant to entertain negotiations to sell him.

Newcastle have signed Harvey Barnes from Leicester City in a deal believed to be around £39 million.

The 25-year-old scored 13 goals for the Foxes last season–a career-best–despite Leicester’s relegation from the Premier League.
