Carlo Ancelotti says Renato Sanches is free to leave
After failing to break into the Bayern Munich first team, Sanches is said to be growing increasingly frustrated at the Bavarian club and has been open to a move away this summer.
The midfielder has attracted the attention of top European clubs like Juventus and AC Milan. Despite no concrete offers coming their way, Bayern could see the back of the Portuguese before the window ends next week.
According to ESPN, Carlo Ancelotti has admitted that the player could leave and has also granted the 20-year old permission to leave Bavaria, should an appropriate offer come in.
Benedikt Höwedes agrees Juventus terms
The Schalke defender has expressed his desire to leave the club after playing 10 seasons for the Bundesliga side. Serie A giants Juventus were reportedly interested in signing the German and seem to be closing in on completing a deal.
ESPN are claiming that Juventus have, in fact, already agreed terms with the 29-year old and are expected to submit an official bid for Howedes before the culmination of the transfer window.
