HONG KONG, CHINA - MAY 30: Alejandro Garnacho of Manchester United in action during the match between Manchester United and Hong Kong at Hong Kong Stadium on May 30, 2025 in Hong Kong, China. Chelsea have been highly active in the summer transfer market revamping their attack. It has already paid dividends with triumph at the FIFA Club World Cup, now it remains to be seen what else is done with ambitions next to challenge for the Premier League title. Liam Delap, Dario Essugo and Joao Pedro were all added to Enzo Maresca's squad for the Club World Cup. Jamie Gittens was another mid-tournament signing but was cup-tied so therefore could not feature. So the former Borussia Dortmund man is set to be added ahead of the new season along with the highly-anticipated Estevao Willian, completi...

Juventus eye Bayern Leverkusen’s Granit Xhaka to bolster midfield

Juventus have identified Bayern Leverkusen holding mid-fielder Granit Xhaka as an ideal candidate to bolster the midfield. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that with the Bianconeri set to part ways with former West Ham midfielder Douglas Luiz after a difficult first season in Turin, coach Igor Tudor’s side turn towards the former Arsenal skipper as the Croatian tactician seeks a flexible, dynamic, and highly skilled in both phases of the game. Sandro Tonali remains the dream signing, but with his lucrative price-tag and the Italian international inching closer towards extending his stay with Newcastle United, it remains unlikely for the former Milan midfielder to be sold this summer from the Magpies. Inter midfielder Davide Frattesi was also another profile that intrigued Juventus, but...
