FootballTransfers runs through the biggest rumours and gossip from 9 February, including the latest updates on Iliman Ndiaye and Xaver Schlager.
Arsenal want Iliman Ndiaye
Arsenal have reportedly joined the race to sign Everton forward Iliman Ndiaye amid significant competition from multiple top Premier League clubs.
Ndiaye has scored four goals and provided two assists in 19 Premier League appearances so far this season, and his form has alerted scouts from a number of English top flight teams, according to CaughtOffside.
It’s reported that Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are all closely monitoring the 25-year-old ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window, with Everton reportedly set to demand a fee of up to €75m for their star attacker.
Celtic submit contract proposal
Celtic have reportedly offered a pre-contract deal to RB Leipzig midfielder Xaver Schlager as they look to secure the Austrian’s signature this summer.
Schlager has been identified as a potential summer signing and Celtic have already submitted their first contract offer, as per The Daily Record.
The 28-year-old has confirmed that he will leave Leipzig when his current deal expires in July, after rejecting a contract extension proposal, and Celtic are among the clubs eager to land him.
Sandro Tonali asking price
Newcastle United will demand a fee of between €92m to €115m (£80m-£100m) for Sandro Tonali this summer amid growing transfer interest in the Italy midfielder, as per a report from talkSPORT..
The 25-year-old was linked with a bombshell move to Arsenal on Transfer Deadline Day and although advanced talks didn’t take place, FootballTransfers understands that Tonali is keen on completing a move to the Emirates Stadium this summer.
Chelsea, Manchester City and several clubs in Serie A are believed to be keeping close tabs on Tonali’s situation at Newcastle, while Manchester United have now officially joined the race for his signature as they search for a suitable replacement for the departing Casemiro.
Real Madrid consider Gonzalo Garcia sale
Endrick has enjoyed a sensational start to life at Olympique Lyon and his form has raised serious questions over Gonzalo Garcia’s long-term future at Real Madrid.
Multiple clubs have been linked with a permanent move for Endrick this summer, including Chelsea and Manchester United, however Los Blancos are expected to bring him back to the Bernabeu in order to play a more prominent role in 2025-26, as per Fichajes.
Furthermore, it’s claimed that Besiktas have lodged a €25m offer for Garcia, with Real Madrid now discussing a potential sale.
Chelsea prepare Morgan Rogers bid
Chelsea officials are reportedly discussing a €115 million (£100m) bid for Aston Villa superstar Morgan Rogers as they look to finally sign the England international this summer.
The Blues are expected to dip back into the market for attacking reinforcements this summer and Rogers has been earmarked as one of their priority options amid his immense form for Aston Villa.
That is according to Spanish publication Fichajes, who claim that Liam Rosenior has given the ‘green light’ to a blockbuster transfer as he looks to bolster the options at his disposal this summer.
