\n \u00a9IMAGO\n <\/p>\n

The summer transfer window is approaching quickly on the horizon and clubs are already busy working on deals to acquire their top targets. For most clubs, planning will already be complete and they will have identified which players they want to sign, and which players they want to sell.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals this summer. The rumour mill is still gathering pace and we’ve collated some of the biggest current transfer stories – you can access the full rumour mill below.<\/p>\n

\nToday’s biggest transfer stories<\/p>\n

Cole Palmer<\/a> would be interested in a move to Manchester United<\/a> this summer, according to the Daily Mail<\/a>. Despite struggling for form this season, Palmer remains an elite player and could look to leave Chelsea<\/a> as they won’t qualify for the Champions League next season. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Barcelona<\/a> have identified Wesley Fofana<\/a> as a potential centre-back target this summer. It’s understood that Barca’s priority remains Alessandro Bastoni but it may prove difficult to extract the Italian international from Inter Milan. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Juventus<\/a> have been offered the chance to sign David Alaba<\/a> this summer. The 33-year-old’s Real Madrid<\/a> contract expires at the end of the season and a move to Serie A would appeal to the highly-decorated Austrian international. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"May 7th\u00a0 \u00a9IMAGO The summer transfer window is approaching quickly on the horizon and clubs are already busy…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":18511,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[180,1806,3198,830,2139,3201,92,266,88,942,3195,3197,3202,3199,2121,1385,223,3200,1807,2412,2991,272,263,1819,83,3196],"class_list":{"0":"post-18510","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-barcelona","8":"tag-ac-milan","9":"tag-alessandro-bastoni","10":"tag-antoine-semenyo","11":"tag-arsenal-fc","12":"tag-atletico-de-madrid","13":"tag-ayyoub-bouaddi","14":"tag-barcelona","15":"tag-bayern-munich","16":"tag-borussia-dortmund","17":"tag-chelsea","18":"tag-chelsea-fc","19":"tag-conor-gallagher","20":"tag-curtis-jones","21":"tag-deinner-ordonez","22":"tag-endrick","23":"tag-erling-haaland","24":"tag-fc-barcelona","25":"tag-gabriel-jesus","26":"tag-inter-milan","27":"tag-kees-smit","28":"tag-liverpool-fc","29":"tag-manchester-city","30":"tag-manchester-united","31":"tag-paris-saint-germain","32":"tag-real-madrid","33":"tag-tottenham-hotspur"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18510\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/spain\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
