Transfer Rumours: Man Utd move '100% decided' as €350m bid breaks the market
FootballTransfers runs through the biggest rumours from 24 March, including the latest updates on Lamine Yamal, Jadon Sancho and Ayyoub Bouaddi.
PSG plot new Yamal bid
PSG are ready to make another monumental offer for Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal, according to Fichajes.
The French giants previously failed with a €250 million bid for the teenage sensation. Barcelona rejected the offer out of hand, even though Yamal had not yet established himself as the face of the club at the time.
With the Spain international now widely recognised as one of the best players in the world, PSG are ready to go as high as €350m in order to get Barcelona to sell. Such a fee would naturally make the Catalans reconsider their not-for-sale stance.
Dortmund in Sancho talks
Jadon Sancho's summer departure from Man Utd is "100% decided" and set in stone, according to Sky Germany.
Borussia Dortmund are once again weighing up a move for their former wonderkid and have already held talks with Sancho over a potential transfer. Club chief Hans-Joachim Watzke is the main driver behind the interest.
Though he has yet to make a final decision, the current Aston Villa loanee is understood to be open to a third spell at BVB and would even take a significant pay cut to be able to complete the transfer.
Arsenal step up Bouaddi chase
Arsenal are accelerating their pursuit of Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, TEAMtalk claims.
The 18-year-old was already linked with a move to North London in January, but he ultimately decided to stay put and penned a new long-term contract with his formative club.
However, Bouaddi acknowledged shortly after his extension that a summer move is possible, and Arsenal have made him a priority target for the upcoming transfer window.
Perez pushing for Vinicius extension
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is pushing hard for a new contract for Vinicius Jr, as per Fichajes.
The Brazil international was heavily linked with a departure from the LaLiga giants during Xabi Alonso's tenure, as the pair had a tense relationship. The winger reportedly even informed Perez that he would not extend at that time.
The situation dramatically changed with Alonso's sacking, and Perez is now determined to end the media speculation of Vinicius - who is a key target for the Saudi Pro League - once and for all.
Man Utd chase double deal
Man Utd are interested in Monaco duo Maghnes Akliouche and Lamine Camara, according to TEAMtalk.
Scouts from the Red Devils and Newcastle watched the pair in action as the Principality club defeated Lyon on Sunday. Akliouche has just been called up to the senior France squad.
Man Utd are interested in the winger as well as Camara, a central midfielder, ahead of the summer, though they are far from their only admirers. Camara could become an option if the Old Trafford club miss out on priority target Elliot Anderson.
