Current Transfer Developments in European Football

The anticipation for the summer transfer window in Europe continues to build, with numerous potential moves and transfer rumors gaining traction across the continent. This edition of Transfer Talk delves into the latest buzz surrounding player movements, transfer speculations, and completed deals of significance.

Bayern Munich and Manchester United Eyeing Jeremie Frimpong

Bayer Leverkusen’s dynamic wing-back, Jeremie Frimpong, has captured the attention of Bayern Munich and Manchester United, as reported by Sky Sports Deutschland’s Florian Plettenberg. Frimpong’s impressive performances for Die Werkself this season, which include eight goals and seven assists in 25 league matches, have elevated his status in the footballing world.

Although there is a release clause in Frimpong’s contract estimated at €45 million, the 23-year-old Dutch international is tied to Bayer Leverkusen until 2028. With manager Xabi Alonso committing his future to Leverkusen amidst interest from Liverpool and Bayern Munich, Frimpong’s decision to stay at the club could be influenced by the continuity and stability provided by Alonso’s guidance since taking charge in October 2022.

Potential Transfers on the Horizon

  • Amadou Onana to Barcelona: Everton’s Belgian midfielder Amadou Onana emerges as a target for Barcelona as they prioritize strengthening the No. 6 position for the upcoming season. A move for the 22-year-old could hinge on Xavi Hernandez’s managerial future, with Martin Zubimendi of Real Sociedad also under consideration.
  • Juventus eyeing Maxence Lacroix: Juventus is intensifying their pursuit of VfL Wolfsburg’s center-back Maxence Lacroix, with Manchester United potentially competing for the French defender’s signature. Lacroix’s recent solid performance and goal-scoring contribution against Werder Bremen have further boosted his appeal in the transfer market.
  • Tottenham’s Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg targeted by Juventus: Tottenham Hotspur is bracing for the possible departure of midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, with Juventus maintaining a keen interest in securing the Danish international. An offer meeting Tottenham’s valuation of £25 million could see Hojbjerg make a move to the Serie A giants.
  • Newcastle United’s stance on Alexander Isak: Manager Eddie Howe has issued a hands-off warning regarding striker Alexander Isak, emphasizing the Swedish forward’s vital role in Newcastle United’s long-term plans. Isak’s integral status within the squad makes any potential inquiries for his services unwelcome.
  • Marcos Alonso’s Barcelona exit: Wing-back Marcos Alonso appears set to depart Barcelona at the end of the season, with his contract expiration drawing closer. The lack of regular playing time this campaign has prompted the decision not to extend the 33-year-old’s stay at the club.
