Real Madrid Eyes McTominay and Olise as Chelsea Pursues De Jong
Summary
Real Madrid is showing keen interest in former Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay and France forward Michael Olise. The Spanish giants are monitoring McTominay's contract negotiations at Napoli, with plans to potentially sign the 29-year-old Scotland international by the end of the season. Meanwhile, Manchester United appears unlikely to re-sign McTominay as they shift their focus towards younger talent.
Bayern Munich is looking to extend the contract of 24-year-old France winger Michael Olise, which is set to run until 2029. However, if a move to Real Madrid arises, Olise may reconsider his future in Germany.
In a surprising turn, Manchester United has made a formal scholarship contract offer to 16-year-old attacking midfielder JJ Gabriel. If he opts to leave the club, they could only receive £350,000 for him, should he move abroad.
Chelsea is also in the market, aiming to secure Frenkie de Jong of Barcelona as a late replacement for Enzo Fernandez, who recently transferred to Manchester City.
Liverpool holds a £59.5m buyback clause for Jarell Quansah, 23, currently with Bayer Leverkusen. Despite interest from both Real Madrid and Chelsea, Quansah is hesitant to return to Anfield.
Lastly, Juventus is evaluating their options regarding 24-year-old Germany striker Nick Woltemade, who is on loan from Newcastle United. They are considering alternatives, including 25-year-old Folarin Balogun from Monaco.
In the Premier League, both Newcastle and Everton have expressed interest in Gabriel Sara, the 27-year-old Brazilian midfielder who previously played for Norwich City before his move to Galatasaray.
