Juventus
Arkadiusz Milik: “I have good memories of when I used to play for Marseille, but I play for Juventus and I hope to stay there.”
Juventus have the option to purchase Milik for €8m, not mandatory, in June 2023.
Manchester United
There will be internal discussions on the striker and on Cody Gakpo in the next days and we will see how Man United will proceed as they consider how to replace Cristiano Ronaldo.
Cody Gakpo on a January move: “I have to be honest, I am not thinking about that now. I am focused on the World Cup, want to keep performing well. Hopefully when we become world champions we can think about other things.”
Manchester United left-back Tyrell Malacia on Cody Gakpo and a possible big move in January: “Gakpo’s good enough for the top, there’s no doubt.”
It’s looking possible for Aaron Wan-Bissaka to leave as Man United have been very clear: they want to find a solution for him, though it’s still too early to say where he is going. Options at right-back for United could be Jeremie Frimpong and Denzel Dumfries.
Both Barcelona and Manchester United were interested in Thomas Meunier last August but there was no chance to agree on deal with Borussia Dortmund. The problem was not on player’s side but on club’s side, as BVB wanted to keep him.
Nottingham Forest
Done deal: Gustavo Scarpa signs as new Nottingham Forest player on a contract valid until 2026. That’s their 24th signing of the season.
“I’m very happy to be here, it’s a dream for me to play in Premier League”, said Gustavo.
Tottenham
Jonathan David has made it clear he wants to play in the Premier League, so where could the Lille striker end up?
At the moment there are no conversations or contacts between Spurs and Lille or Jonathan David’s agents. Tottenham were informed on David one year ago but it’s still quiet now. I think he’d be great solution for many clubs, including Tottenham; he’s a very good striker.
Watford
Canadian gem Ismael Kone is set to join Watford, here we go — it will be a record transfer fee for Montreal
Kone will sign his Watford contract in the next few days, and a medical has already been approved.
Wolves
Wolves and Atletico Madrid are in talks for Felipe, not just Matheus Cunha. It’s a potential ‘package’ to include two players in the deal.

Coming from an Arsenal fan, yes Giroud is a good player. Congrads on passing Henry for all time scoring record. But let’s not compare Giroud to France’s all time greats: Henry, Zidane, Platini…
