Welcome to Wednesday morning’s Premier League transfer rumors roundup. Today, we’ve got the latest on Manchester United and Wolves, but first, let’s dive into the big striker battle brewing at the top of the table.
Caught Offside has the inside scoop on Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak’s future. The Swede has been linked with a move to Arsenal, but Chelsea is also in the mix. Both London clubs are eyeing Isak, with a reported asking price of £115m. However, it’s believed that Arsenal and Chelsea are confident they can negotiate down to £80m, a more acceptable figure for their transfer teams. If Isak doesn’t work out, both teams have their sights set on RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Šeško.
As for Manchester United, there are rumors swirling around potential wing-back signings. Sky Sports Germany’s Florian Plettenberg suggests that a left-sided player is a top priority for Rúben Amorim. Bayern Munich’s Alphonso Davies is the prime target due to his expiring contract, though a deal may be difficult. AC Milan’s Theo Hernández is also on the radar.
Lastly, Wolves are reportedly keeping a close eye on Galatasaray midfielder Yunus Akgün. If Akgün continues his impressive form, Wolves could make a move next summer. With only a year left on his contract, the price tag may not be astronomical. Akgün’s skills on the ball and growing productivity in attack make him an attractive prospect for English clubs, including Wolves.
In conclusion, the Premier League transfer market is heating up, with big clubs eyeing key signings to bolster their squads. Stay tuned for more updates as the season progresses.
