Elsewhere, Aston Villa are exploring a loan move for Real Madrid forward Endrick, while Barcelona are expected to return for Manchester City midfielder Rodri after having an initial proposal rejected. One reported scenario could involve Frenkie de Jong forming part of Barcelona’s attempt to structure a deal. Ferran Torres is meanwhile being linked with Paris Saint-Germain, though no final agreement has been verified. Newcastle are assessing midfield options following major departures, with João Palhinha and Pierre-Emile Højbjerg among names currently being discussed.
These situations remain reports or negotiations rather than completed transactions. Other developing business includes Fulham moving closer to a reported £30 million deal for Southampton midfielder Shea Charles, Ipswich awaiting Bayer Leverkusen’s response to an approach for Exequiel Palacios, Manchester United showing interest in Leicester teenager Louis Page, and Chelsea potentially allowing Jamie Gittens to move to Roma. In Asia, there was no newly verified blockbuster J.League international signing early Monday that justified elevating it above these stories; Reuters’ latest Asian football review instead notes the previously completed move of Australia international Jackson Irvine from St Pauli to Cerezo Osaka. The Saudi market also remains active ahead of the new league season, but Sunday’s confirmed Samu Costa → Al-Nassr move is unchanged and therefore is not being recycled as new Monday news.
