Trending rumors
- Chelsea are leading the race to sign AFC Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, who is also attracting strong interest from Liverpool and Arsenal, as reported by The Telegraph. Elsewhere, TEAMtalk have suggested that Real Madrid are considering becoming involved in the race for the 23-year-old after watching him closely in recent weeks. Los Blancos have watched Scott at least three times, including his first England start in the Three Lions' 7-0 victory over Croatia.
- Bayern Munich are concerned about talks to renew Michael Olise's contract, as the winger hasn't yet told them if he even wants to stay in Bavaria, as reported by Sport Bild. The Bundesliga club is preparing for a very difficult negotiation with the representatives of the 24-year-old. One of the sticking points is that the France international wants a release clause in his new contract, something both Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala have. Bayern are willing to offer a mega contract that will run until 2032 but want an answer by next summer.
