Transfer Rumors Heat Up as Season Ends
As the football season winds down, all eyes are shifting to the transfer market. And let’s be real transfer rumors never really sleep. With the summer window around the corner and the FIFA Club World Cup shaking up the schedule, we’re in for a pretty wild ride. The Premier League’s transfer window will actually be split into two parts this year, meaning even more time and opportunity for clubs to land big names.
Premier League Giants Circle Patrik Schick
Bayer Leverkusen striker Patrik Schick has popped up on the radar of three big-name English clubs: Arsenal, Manchester United, and Chelsea. That’s according to CaughtOffside. The 29-year-old forward is reportedly available for around €40 million (about AU$70 million), which feels like a decent deal for a guy who’s been banging in the goals. Even though Schick is under contract until 2027, Leverkusen seems open to offers. He’s netted 19 goals in the Bundesliga this season and has some solid experience under his belt from his time in Serie A with Sampdoria and Roma. Transfer Rumors Heat Up.
Tsimikas Likely on His Way Out of Liverpool
Kostas Tsimikas just made history by becoming the first Greek player to win the Premier League title, but it sounds like his time at Anfield might be up. Football Insider reports that Liverpool are planning to sell the left-back and are already on the hunt for someone new to compete with Andy Robertson. Tsimikas has been with the Reds since 2020 and could log more minutes this season than in any of his previous campaigns, but despite that, his future at the club seems shaky. Bournemouth’s Milos Kerkez is apparently one of the names being considered as a replacement. Transfer Rumors Heat Up.
Villa Considering Selling Martinez
Aston Villa might be making a surprising move this summer. According to Mail Sport, Unai Emery’s team is in the market for a new goalkeeper and could even let go of current No.1 Emiliano Martinez. The club needs to sell a big-name player before June ends to stay within Premier League financial rules. Martinez only recently signed a five-year extension with Villa, but if Emery finds the right young keeper, he’s open to parting ways. One of the names being floated? Espanyol’s Joan Garcia.
