Liverpool are on the verge of sealing a deal for Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, with a bid reportedly topping \u00a370 million, beating out a rejected \u00a370 million offer from Newcastle.<\/h2>\n
Hugo Ekitike, 23, is coming off a standout Bundesliga campaign, scoring 15 goals and recording 8 assists in 31 starts. His 117 shots on goal were the highest in the league last season, and his xG of 21.6 ranked second only to Harry Kane.<\/p>\n
With Alexander Isak off the table, the Reds view Ekitike as their central striker solution in place of their late Portuguese forward, Diogo Jota.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Ekitike is open to the move, drawn by the chance to join the Premier League champions.<\/p>\n
Newcastle Pivot to Yoane Wissa<\/h2>\n
With Frankfurt holding firm on Ekitike, Newcastle United are now turning their attention to Yoane Wissa of Brentford. The 28-year-old striker had a breakout season, scoring 19 Premier League goals, all from inside the box, ranking second for open-play goals in the 2024-2025 season.<\/p>\n
Wissa, who stepped into the central role following Ivan Toney\u2019s departure, is also on the radar of Tottenham and Nottingham Forest, but Newcastle are expected to step up their interest within 24 hours.<\/p>\n
Manchester United Continue Their Push For Bryan Mbeumo<\/h2>\n
Manchester United have tabled a third bid worth up to \u00a370 million for Bryan Mbeumo, with \u00a365 million upfront and \u00a35 million in add-ons. United hope to wrap the deal before flying to the U.S. for pre-season, where manager Ruben Amorim wants Mbeumo integrated into his system.<\/p>\n
The 25-year-old scored 20 league goals last season and prefers a move to Old Trafford, despite interest from Spurs and others.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, United\u2019s focus on Mbeumo could further sideline Marcus Rashford, Garnacho, Sancho, and Antony.<\/p>\n
Arsenal Line Up Final Signing After \u00a3200 Million Spree<\/h2>\n
Having secured Cristhian Mosquera, Viktor Gyokeres, Noni Madueke, Christian Norgaard, Martin Zubimendi, and Kepa Arrizabalaga, Arsenal are preparing to make one final statement signing.<\/p>\n
According to The Athletic, Rodrygo and Eberechi Eze are among the top names on Arteta\u2019s wishlist. Additionally, German sources confirm Arsenal are in serious talks with Bayern over Jo\u00e3o Palhinha to replace Jorginho and Thomas Partey.<\/p>\n
The Gunners\u2019 transfer activity could surpass \u00a3250 million, but outgoings are expected to balance the books.<\/p>\n
Ronaldo Wants D\u00edaz at Al-Nassr<\/h2>\n
Cristiano Ronaldo has reportedly asked Al-Nassr to pursue Luis D\u00edaz from Liverpool. The Portuguese icon sees D\u00edaz as the ideal wing partner to boost his title ambitions in the Saudi Pro League.<\/p>\n
D\u00edaz, who has attracted interest from Barcelona and Bayern, is open to a move if the right offer arrives. Al-Nassr are eager to back new manager Jorge Jesus, who replaced Stefano Pioli this summer.<\/p>\n
Garnacho Set for Premier League Exit?<\/h2>\n
Alejandro Garnacho\u2019s future at Manchester United looks bleak. Having been dropped from the pre-season squad and benched in the Europa League final, the 21-year-old Argentine is now wanted by Chelsea, Tottenham, and Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
With Ruben Amorim unwilling to reintegrate him, a summer exit looks increasingly likely. Garnacho, however, is said to prefer staying in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
