Hello and welcome to the transfer roundup of this week. As always we have some crazy transfers and plans made by the clubs. We have lots of trending news about some of the major clubs like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus. The transfer season will end by August 31 for all the leagues, so these are the last few days of transfers which makes it much better as we will see many last minute transfers happening. So without wasting any time further, let us begin!
Zaha signs a new contract
Wilfried Zaha has now become Crystal Palace's best-paid player ever, according to the Mirror.
Zaha recently signed a new five-year contract with his club and he is set to get around £135,000 a week or £33.8m over the duration of his deal.
Many big clubs such as Manchester United, Tottenham, Everton and Chelsea all wanted him this summer but did not agree to Crystal Palace's demand of £60m for him.
So now it looks like Zaha is not going anywhere soon and will remain with Crystal Palace till the end of his contract which ends at 2023.
"I’m very pleased. Obviously, I just wanted to get it over and done with, so I can just focus on the season," the 25-year-old said in a club statement.
"I’m buzzing that we managed to get it sorted.”
Napoli and Ospina negotiations
According to Goal, Ospina has started talks with Napoli and he could soon move away from the Gunners.
Ospina is not happy with his play time since he has now become Arsenal's third choice goalkeeper with the arrival of Bernard Leno. Napoli is targeting four goalkeepers Ochoa, Mignolet, Ospina and Tatarusanu but seems like they would land Ospina soon.
The Club Chairman, Aurelio De Laurentiis told the press "It is true that Ospina could arrive, we are negotiating, there are still some differences on the requests."
Juventus reject PSG's offer for Alex Sandro
According to Bleacher Report, Juventus has just turned down an attractive €60 million offer from PSG for their defender Alex Sandro.
PSG are still looking to reinforce their team till the last day of the transfers but it looks like Juventus is not ready to sell their star, so PSG will have to look somewhere else.
Alex Sandro has been playing good football for Juventus in Serie A and Europe in the last term and Juventus would not be able to replace a player like him at such a late stage of the transfer.
Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival at the club has added optimism for the team and their fans. Juventus are now trying to bring in as many best players possible to support Ronaldo.
Milinkovic-Savic could arrive at Real Madrid
According to Sempreinter, Real Madrid could bring in Lazio midfielder Milinkovic-Savic to replace Luka Modric in case he leaves.
If you did not know, Luka Modric's agent has revealed that Inter Milan is interested in Modric and the Real Madrid midfielder is excited by the idea of playing for the Serie A side, according to Goal.
Real Madrid sees Milinkovic-Savic as the player who can replace Modric and Los Blancos will only give up Modric if they get Savic as a replacement.
No more Barca signings
According to BarcaBlaugranes, Barcelona club President has told the media that they will not be doing any last minute transfer and are currently extremely happy with the squad they have. Barca has brought in Clement Lenglet, Arthur, Arturo Vidal and Malcom this summer.
Josep Maria Bartomeu: “As you all know, the transfer window shuts on the 31st August and we’re keeping an eye on the market, but there’s no immediate need to sign anyone.
“We’re satisfied with our business in this window, both with the arrivals and departures, and I want to thank the people who are often forgotten about: our CEO, Oscar Grau, the managing director, Pep Segura, our director of football Eric Abidal and his assistant, Ramon Planes.
Real Madrid to go for Rodrigo
According to Donbalon, Real Madrid is planning to bring in Rodrigo as a player who can compete in place for Karim Benzema.
Los Blancos are looking for a number nine and it seems like Rodrigo is the best fit for it. Real as already given a 70 million euros bid to Valencia but they rejected it asking for 90 million euros.
Valencia will be tempted to sell Rodrigo for 80 million euros or more. Since Lopetegui as already targeted him, he would most likely come to Real by the end of the transfer season.
