Winning betting tips from the best verified tipsters!
Bruno Guimaraes (Newcastle United) to Arsenal
Bruno Guimaraes has been linked with a move to Arsenal throughout the transfer window, with Arsenal even having bids for the Brazilian midfielder rejected by Newcastle United.
However, following the recent news that Eddie Howe has left his position at St James’ Park, this rumour has started heating up once again, with it looking increasingly likely that Arsenal will eventually get their man.
Bradley Barcola (Paris Saint-Germain) to Liverpool
Liverpool are reportedly set to open talks with Paris Saint-Germain regarding a potential deal for winger Bradley Barcola, with the Reds aiming to bolster their frontline following the departure of the legendary Mohamed Salah.
A deal is expected to cost between £130m and £150m, but both club and player appear keen to make this materialise ahead of the new campaign.
Ayyoub Bouaddi (Lille) to Manchester City
Ayyoubu Bouaddi arrived at World Cup 2026 as one of the hottest prospects in European football, and after an impressive campaign, the midfielder has earned the interest of numerous elite sides.
Manchester City are amongst those interested clubs, and with news that Real Madrid are extremely interested in signing Rodri, Bouaddi could prove to be the perfect replacement at the Etihad Stadium.
Any potential deal has been reported to cost as much as a staggering £100m, but this fee could come down if this does ultimately take place.
Manu Kone (Roma) to Manchester United
Manchester United’s midfield rebuild has already seen Youri Tielemans and Andrey Santos come through the door at Old Trafford, but the Red Devils are supposedly in the market for one final midfield addition.
Manu Kone has been spoken about as the most likely target, with the French midfielder offering the height, mobility and defensive ability, as well as plenty of qualities on the ball and going forward, that Manchester United are lacking.
Manchester United would likely have to pay upwards of £50m to make this happen, but with the Red Devils eager to strengthen their midfield department, this could materialise in the coming weeks.
