3 big-name superstars who could switch clubs during this summer transfer window

We are already in that period of the year when transfer rumours and speculation fill the air. The transfer window will officially open in a few days time across the major leagues in Europe.

Following the conclusion of the 2020-21 season, clubs will be looking to make the necessary adjustments to their squads to get ready for the upcoming campaign.

Apparently, every club wants to sign the best players available on the market. The best teams also try to keep hold of their prized assets. However, there's no denying that some of these outfits will be forced to part ways with their finest superstars due to various reasons.

That could give us some big-name transfers this summer.

Barcelona have wrapped up the signing of Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero and Real Madrid have also announced the capture of David Alaba from Bayern Munich.

We are already off to a great start. More big players are expected to join the list before the end of the transfer window.

On that note, let's quickly take a look at three big-name superstars who could be on the move this summer.

3 top players who might move this summer transfer window

---

#1. Paul Pogba

A return to Turin could be on the cards for Pogba this summer... or Real Madrid.

Manchester United will be looking to make a few changes to their squad this summer following their collapse in the Europa League final. Paul Pogba is one of the few superstars who could be shown the exit door to make way for a new revolution at Old Trafford.

Paul Pogba isn't new to speculation. He has just one year left on his contract with the transfer window just a few days away. We should be ready to witness another summer full of rumors about the Frenchman's next club.

As the media has had it going for some time now, the midfielder could end up plying his trade at Juventus next season. The Bianconeri are looking to kick-off a new era and they've appointed Max Allegri to take charge of affairs.

Pogba had his best days playing under the Italian in Turin. There are reasons to believe the pair could end up reuniting this summer.

The Old Lady are reportedly looking to offload Cristiano Ronaldo. Manchester United are among the favourites to sign the Portuguese superstar. It shouldn't be a surprise if we eventually hear of a swap deal between the clubs that would involve some amount of cash.

#2. Kylian Mbappe

The attacker is yet to commit his future to PSG with just a year left on his contract.

Paris Saint Germain attacker Kylian Mbappe is another big name who could be on the move this summer.

The Frenchman's future at the Parc des Princes continues to draw attention as he is yet to sign a contract extension with the Ligue 1 heavyweights. His current contract expires at the end of the upcoming season.

It is believed Mbappe has intentionally slowed things down as he has doubts over his continuity in the French capital. The 22-year-old is said to be considering taking the next big step in his career and he already has a host of elite clubs paying close attention to his situation.

Real Madrid are reportedly leading the pack while Liverpool are also in the race.

PSG could be forced to sell the winger for an astronomical figure this summer instead of losing him for free next year. It remains to be seen where the story will lead to.

Mbappe had a record of 42 goals and 11 assists for the French side during the recently-concluded campaign. He will be hoping to continue his scintillating form in front of goal when he takes to the pitch to represent his country at the Euros later this month.

#1. Cristiano Ronaldo

The Portuguese is expected to leave Turin this summer

It appears Cristiano Ronaldo has reached the end of the road at Juventus. It shouldn't be a surprise to see the attacker wearing the colors of another club next season. It could well be because of the drama that has surrounded his name in Turin over the last few weeks.

He was the subject of intense scrutiny as Juve concluded another disappointing campaign. It was marked by their failure to stage a fight for the Serie A title as well as their embarrassing elimination from the Champions League round of 16.

Ronaldo left Real Madrid to join the Bianconeri in the summer of 2018. He was signed with the expectation of helping the Old Lady win the coveted Champions League title which has eluded them for decades.

Following his third straight season with the Italian giants without any progress in the European tournament, there have been a lot of calls to get rid of the attacker.

Former manager Max Allegri has been appointed to lead a new era at Allianz Stadium. Rumors have it that the tactician doesn't have Ronaldo in his plans for next season.

So the attacker is said to be on the search for a new club this summer. Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United are said to be the main clubs exploring the possibility of prising him away.
