Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has urged the club to sign Inter wingback Federico Dimarco, with United’s interest reportedly stalling his contract talks. Meanwhile, a Middle Eastern consortium’s bid to buy Chelsea from Behdad Eghbali and Clearlake Capital was quickly rejected.

Corinthians’ 20-year-old midfielder Breno has attracted global attention, with Manchester United, Manchester City, Wolves, Napoli, Zenit, and Saudi clubs all interested. Liverpool have identified seven potential centre-back targets, including Marc Guéhi, Murillo, Castello Lukeba, Dayot Upamecano, Ronald Araújo, Jarrad Branthwaite, and Sven Botman. Elsewhere, Borussia Dortmund boss Niko Kovač is targeting a reunion with Chelsea’s Axel Disasi, while Chelsea and Tottenham have approached Juventus striker Dušan Vlahović, who will be a free agent soon. Spurs could hold an advantage, as Randal Kolo Muani is reportedly keen on returning to Juventus next summer.
