Liverpool
Jurgen Klopp really wanted Aurelien Tchouameni one year ago, yes; but I’m also sure Real Madrid have not changed their mind on Tchouameni and they consider him a key player for present and future. I see him staying at Real Madrid this summer, despite some recent speculation to the contrary.
Manchester City
Pep Guardiola: “Julian Alvarez, exceptional player. City made an incredible signing for this price.”
Manchester City paid €18.5m with taxes for Alvarez… and also rewarded him with a new deal and improved salary until 2028.

Manchester United
I can confirm Luke Shaw has a full agreement on a new deal with Manchester United until June 2027. He has accepted days ago and Erik ten Hag approved the deal as he’s big fan of Luke performances and attitude. It’s almost done.
Do Manchester United need Champions League football to attract the best players? Erik ten Hag has had his say: “We have to be in Champions League. This is clear. Casemiro won everything, Champions Leagues but also he’s willing to come — even when we were playing in Europa League. Man Utd attracts people, they want to be part of this club. But we have to be in UCL.”
Napoli
Official, completed. Juan Jesus signs new deal with Napoli valid until June 2025. Contract also includes an option for further season.
Real Madrid
Carlo Ancelotti on the Brazil job: “The reality is that Brazilian national team want me — and this makes me delighted, happy. But I want to fulfil and respect my contract. I love Real Madrid. Retiring after Madrid? I can’t confirm it today. I’ll stay here until Real Madrid let me.”
Ancelotti on Asensio, Ceballos, Modric and Nacho out of contract in June: “We are not thinking about my future or the player’s future — the players are not thinking about the contract renewals. Full focus on the games. We can win titles.”

Roma
There is nothing new on Paulo Dybala’s future because right now he wants to 100% focus on Roma as they fight for Europa League, but also for a Champions League place and it could be crucial to decide his future. As recently revealed, there will be release clauses active this summer, but I’m sure he’s focused on Roma now.
