The summer plans for AC Milan are becoming more known, and it seems they are targetting a big deal for an aging Saudi Pro League star. There have been a number of impressive imports to the Saudi Pro League in recent years, especially in the forward market. For example, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema have both headed to Saudi Arabia. However, there has also been a market for players who are not quite in the elite bracket, and Aleksandar Mitrovic is one of those. Now, he is being linked with a move back to Europe. According to L’Equipe this afternoon,…
Martin Zubimendi appears to have cast fresh doubt on a potential transfer to Arsenal. The Spain midfielder had been expected to complete a high-profile summer move to north London that was first mooted back during the January window. Arsenal were expected to trigger the £51million release clause in Zubimendi’s current contract at Real Sociedad, with reports emerging last week that the 26-year-old was poised to undergo a medical with all the relevant paperwork signed and the deal close to being finalised. However, around the same time the player himself uploaded photos to social media from a beach in San Sebastian,…
Mitrovic enjoyed five brilliant seasons for Fulham, returning 111 goals and 21 assists in 206 appearances for the Cottagers and establishing himself as one of the most underrated forwards in England. The Serbian international had previously played for Newcastle United before joining the West London club on loan in the winter window in 2018. Fulham would sign him permanently the following summer in a deal worth a potential £27 million. But Mitrovic left Craven Cottage in 2023 after Al-Hilal offered £50 million to sign the number nine – a record fee for Fulham. Across 79 appearances for the Saudi side,…
Since the Los Angeles Lakers are expected to be on the hunt for a big man this summer, one Lakers-centric writer suggests that the Detroit Pistons might have the perfect prospect. Isaiah Stewart might’ve been a popular trade candidate coming out of Detroit last summer, but this time around, Jalen Duren has a small spotlight on him. “The Lakers desire an athletic center, preferably on the younger side, who can play both ways,” writes LakeShowLife’s Svyatoslav Rovenchuk. “Duren would certainly provide them with that.” Just a few months ago, the Lakers famously traded for a young veteran center ahead of…
The Dallas Mavericks shocked the sports world in February when they traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. The blockbuster deal paired Doncic with NBA legend LeBron James. Doncic averaged 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 7.5 assists with the Lakers in the regular season after the Mavericks traded him. The future Hall of Famer then put up 30.2 points, 7.0 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game in the 2025 playoffs. Despite Doncic putting up stellar numbers, though, the Lakers lost to the Timberwolves in the first round in five games. The 26-year-old Doncic will make $45.9 million next season.…
Several major sources reported late on Monday that Milan have accepted a bid from Al-Hilal for Theo Hernandez worth €35m in total. While waiting for the player to give the green light, Juventus’ Andrea Cambiaso has apparently been earmarked as a potential replacement. According to the latest from CaughtOffside, there is another name on Milan’s radar and he is one of the Premier League’s ‘most dynamic full-backs’. Manchester United, Chelsea, Milan and Spurs are all after Brighton left-back Pervis Estupinan. The Seagulls are open to offers for the Ecuador international but they have set a high initial asking price of…
Football Italia understands Al-Hilal are ready to bid €30m plus add-ons for Theo Hernandez, who has been offered a €20m-a-year contract. Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal are ready to secure Theo Hernandez’s services from Milan for €30m plus add-ons, Football Italia understands. The Rossoneri are eager to sell the French star as his contract expires in June 2026, and his demands for a new deal have been judged unrealistic. Sources tell Football Italia that Al-Hilal have offered Theo a €20m-a-year contract to convince him to leave San Siro. The France international still hopes for a call from a European club,…
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Maignan has not yet committed to a contract extension at AC Milan, which has alerted Chelsea to the possibility of securing a deal. The Premier League side are closely monitoring developments and have reportedly already made contact with Milan over a potential transfer. Maignan has long been admired at Stamford Bridge and has featured prominently on Chelsea’s shortlist for some time. The decision, however, now rests with the Rossoneri hierarchy, who must choose between retaining their prized goalkeeper or cashing in while his market value remains high. Bringing Maignan to Stamford Bridge could represent…
According to Calciomercato, Hernandez could turn down a mega €20 million (£17m/$23m) salary offer as he would prefer to stay in Europe. Al-Hilal and Milan agreed terms for the sale of the defender for a sum of €35 million (£30m/$40m) but the move hinges on the player’s willingness to move. Atletico and Newcastle have reached out and the Frenchman will consider his options in the coming days. With renewal talks between Milan and Hernandez stalling, the club have opted to put the left-back up for sale to ensure they do not lose him for free when his contract expires in…
David Raya has lifted the lid on how he turned his Arsenal career around following a lengthy meeting at the club’s training ground. The Spanish goalkeeper has won the Premier League’s Golden Glove award for the last two seasons thanks to his impressive haul of clean sheets. However, Raya suffered a difficult start to life with the Gunners after first joining on loan from Brentford during the summer of 2023. Mikel Arteta’s decision to play Raya over England international Aaron Ramsdale initially drew raised eyebrows in the early stages of the 2023/24 campaign following a series of high-profile blunders. The…
