TRENDING RUMORS
– Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens is high on Bayern Munich ‘s list of targets for next summer, according to Florian Plettenberg. The 20-year-old, who has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in the Bundesliga, is yet to express a desire to leave Dortmund. However, Vincent Kompany and Max Eberl are reportedly “raving” internally about Gittens, who scored against Bayern earlier this season. A winter transfer has been ruled out, meaning Dortmund will wait until the summer to see which clubs make a genuine attempt to sign their star attacker. Gittens has scored 14 goals in all competitions for Die Schwarzgelben since 2022.
– Manchester United are keeping tabs on Victor Osimhen ahead of the January transfer window, Sky Sports reports. The Nigeria international is currently on loan at Galatasaray but could be recalled by Napoli next month — and transferred permanently. Already in contract with Osimhen, it is claimed United would have “no trouble” reaching an agreement over personal terms with the 22-year-old. Nevertheless, a transfer fee would still need to be settled with Napoli, who are expected to demand around $US78 million to sanction his exit.
– Atalanta head coach Gian Piero Gasperini is seriously concerned that Liverpool or Real Madrid will try to sign Charles De Ketelaere in the near future, La Repubblica reports. The Reds have recently been linked with De Ketelaere, who has scored 10 goals and registered nine assists in 24 games this term. The 23-year-old — who operates chiefly as a No. 10 — moved to Atalanta on an initial loan, which subsequently became permanent earlier this year.

The 21-year-old has been lined up as a potential replacement for Randal Kolo Muani by PSG head coach Luis Enrique. The Parisians are keen to strengthen their attack this winter, and they could turn to the Villa man, who has bagged seven goals in 17 Premier League games this season. Durán has previously been linked with the likes of Chelsea and Napoli. (Ekrem Konor)
