Today’s biggest transfer stories

Real Madrid are monitoring Ayyoub Bouaddi after his impressive start for Morocco at the World Cup. The 18-year-old is one of the most valuable teenagers in the world and he’s expected to depart Lille this summer with Madrid considering a bid.

Roberto De Zerbi wants to sign Cody Gakpo from Liverpool this summer and Tottenham will offer him a leading role in their rebuild. The 27-year-old is contracted at Anfield until 2031 but Liverpool could sanction a sale this summer to provide Andoni Iraola more funds.

Arsenal are increasingly confident that Morgan Rogers will decide to join them this summer. Several leading European clubs want to sign the Aston Villa star with Arsenal the leading contenders to secure his signature.
