#5 Freiburg respond to Soyuncu claim

It was claimed yesterday by Altinordu’s president that their former player Caglar Soyuncu is on his way to Arsenal from his current club Freiburg. The director of Freiburg, however, refuted those claims and labelled them as “nonsense.”

Saier told Bild: “Ozkan can know little about the overall scenario. This is total nonsense. Arsenal did not contact me and there is no offer.”

Tottenham Hotspur look set to strengthen their backline as the North Londoners are eyeing a double swoop worth £65 million, according to Express. Swansea’s Alfie Mawson and Southampton’s Ryan Bertrand top the list of Mauricio Pochettino.

Meanwhile, London sisters West Ham are pushing for Rodrigo Battaglia of Sporting and will make a €30 million bid for him in the summer, if a rumour from A Bola, translated by Sport Witness, is to be believed.

Liverpool’s interest Christian Pulisic isn’t new. They have been looking at him for quite a while now but Dortmund sporting director reveals that Liverpool haven’t been in contact with him.

"I am in constant exchange with Jurgen Klopp, but I am not aware of this," Michael Zorc was quoted by Daily Mail.

Meanwhile, Karim Benzema seems to have raised some eyebrows with his performance against Bayern as Don Balon claim that Arsenal are among the many clubs interested in him.

#2 Kane-Bale Spurs-Madrid

Tottenham Hotspur v Watford - Premier League
Kane to Madrid in a swap deal for Bale?

Real Madrid star Gareth Bale wants to leave the club and has made Tottenham Hotspur his first priority. As a result, according to Don Balon, the Blancos want to use him as a card to bring Harry Kane to the club.

They rate Bale at £90 million but Spurs don’t value their former star at more than £60 million, which is why they want £115 million + Gareth Bale + £25 million in variables for Harry Kane.

Manchester United have been interested in Justin Kluivert for quite a while, which is why the youngster has refused to accept a new deal. Man United legend Edwin Van Der Sar, who is the CEO of Ajax, however, wants the 18-year-old to snub United and stay at the club and is trying to convince him to do so, according to Mirror.

Meanwhile, Arsenal and Liverpool are apparently interested in acquiring the services of Keylor Navas as his stock has increased since his brilliant performance against Bayern Munich in the Champions League, say Don Balon.
