The January transfer window is now little more than a distant memory in European football and as such clubs across the continent are already making plans for the summer window. Teams are working tirelessly behind the scenes on identifying targets and figuring out their budgets.
Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals. A plethora of players will become available in the summer where clubs famously have more money to spend and aren’t as restricted by financial fair play rules. The rumour mill is beginning to pick up pace and we’ve collated some of the biggest current transfer stories.
Today’s biggest transfer stories
Everton are reportedly weighing up a move for Liverpool star Ben Doak this summer. The 19-year-old has impressed on-loan at Middlesbrough this season but the Anfield club could cash in this summer with rival boss David Moyes a huge admirer of his countryman.
Cristiano Ronaldo will allow his contract at Al Nassr to expire this summer, according to reports in Spain. The legendary attacker is yet to agree an extension with the Saudi club and it’s claimed that he wants to return to Real Madrid – although it’s incredibly unlikely.
Wolves striker Matheus Cunha has admitted that he wants to ‘take the next step’ this summer in order to ‘fight for titles’. The Brazilian penned a new deal at Wolves recently but it contains a €70 million release clause with Arsenal a potential destination.
