Liverpool midfielder Wataru Endo has reportedly attracted interest from Eintracht Frankfurt over a potential summer move.

The 32-year-old has seen his playing time greatly reduced this season, and that could drop even further with no more domestic cup action on Liverpool's calendar this season.

Endo featured prominently in Liverpool's run to the EFL Cup final, starting in the wins over West Ham United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Southampton.

However, he was only a substitute in both legs of the semi-final against Tottenham Hotspur, and he was not used at all in the defeat to Newcastle United in the final last week.

Highly-sought-after Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres has reportedly ruled out a possible move to Nottingham Forest this summer.

Forest emerged as surprise candidates in the race for the Swedish frontman over the past week, with some of Europe's wealthiest clubs queuing up to compete for his signature.

Club owner Evangelos Marinakis has made it clear that his ambition is to take Forest to the very top of European football, and a signing such as this would have been a huge statement of intent, on top of potentially qualifying for the Champions League this season.

However, Forest fans will be disappointed at new reports that claim their club is not a realistic destination for the 26-year-old, who is almost certain to leave Sporting this summer.

How much could Saints earn for Dibling in summer transfer window as exit nears?

Southampton's Tyler Dibling could be at the centre of a transfer battle in the summer following reports that RB Leipzig have contacted the player's camp.

The Saints look destined to be relegated from the Premier League at the end of the season given they are currently in last place with just nine points after 29 matchweeks.

Boss Ivan Juric has come under scrutiny for his management of the team, with the club failing to find form following the dismissal of Russell Martin in December.

While Juric could be replaced in the summer, reports from journalist Florian Plettenberg suggest that winger Dibling may also be on the way out of the club, with RB Leipzig joining a number of sides interested in signing the winger in the summer.

Who is "the next breakout name" Man City should sign? Nine midfield targets assessed

Manchester City expert Steven McInerney from Esteemed Kompany has encouraged the Citizens to prioritise signing at least two "technically brilliant" midfielders in the summer transfer window.

After spending around £180m on four new signings in January, Man City will continue their much-needed squad rebuild in the summer, one to be led by incoming sporting director Hugo Viana who is expected to target younger players to address the age profile of Pep Guardiola's current squad.

A number of high-profile players could leave the club as part of City's "brutal" rebuild, with the likes of Kevin De Bruyne - who is out of contract at the end of June - Mateo Kovacic, Jack Grealish, James McAtee, Ederson, John Stones and Nathan Ake among those who have been tipped to depart.

© Imago

Contrary to rumours earlier this week, Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite has not stated he is unsettled at the club, according to a new report.

Sky Sports News broke the news that Branthwaite is now considering his future on Merseyside after being left out of Thomas Tuchel's England squad this month.

Branthwaite only has one England cap to his name, earned shortly before Euro 2024, a competition the Everton man would go on to miss anyway.

However, after an injury-hit start to the season, the 22-year-old is now showing the sort of form that earned him that first call-up under Gareth Southgate again, and warranted interest from the likes of Manchester United and even Real Madrid.

Manchester United have reportedly contacted Olympiacos over potentially signing their teenage sensation Charalampos Kostoulas.

Despite his tender age, the 17-year-old has broken into the Olympiacos first team this season, starting either behind the striker, or as the lone front man himself.

Kostoulas was one of the players who led the Greek giants to glory in last season's UEFA Youth League, scoring five goals in eight games on the way to beating the likes of Bayern Munich and Feyenoord to reach the final, where they outclassed AC Milan 3-0 in Nyon.

Now starring for the current Conference League holders, Kostoulas has featured prominently in both the Greek top flight and the Europa League this season.

Arsenal are reportedly prepared to enter talks with Gabriel Magalhaes over a new contract at the Emirates.

The Brazilian is currently on international duty with the Selecao, who are looking to book their spot in next year's World Cup in North America.

Gabriel is the latest star who Arsenal are looking to tie down in the long term, with the North Londoners in communication with wonderkid Ethan Nwaneri over a fresh five-year deal.

The 27-year-old has been a stalwart at the back for Mikel Arteta's side this term alongside Frenchman William Saliba, who is known to be admired by Real Madrid.

Sancho 'dreaming of return' to former club following Man United, Chelsea woes

© Imago

Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho is reportedly dreaming of a move to Borussia Dortmund over the summer.

The out-of-favour 25-year-old is currently spending the 2024-25 campaign on loan at Chelsea, who are battling hard for a spot in the Champions League positions.

Sancho started brightly at Stamford Bridge - providing an assist in each of his first three matches - but has mustered up just the single goal contribution across his last 14 appearances.

Looking to establish themselves as a powerhouse at the very top of the English game once again, the Blues are supposedly looking at replacements for the winger in the transfer window.

Two Dutch, two South American: Four players Liverpool could sign to replace Trent

Following the path that Michael Owen and Steve McManaman once ventured down, Liverpool right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold has reportedly been unable to resist the bright lights of the Bernabeu.

The 26-year-old's future - along with that of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk - has been dominating Anfield headlines for months on end, a real shame for head coach Arne Slot, who should be lapping up the fanfare ahead of an expected Premier League coronation.

Instead, the Dutchman's next press conference will surely see him have to bat away incessant questions about Alexander-Arnold allegedly moving closer to signing for Real Madrid on a free transfer at the end of the season.

Fabrizio Romano has now reported that Los Blancos have lodged an official offer to Alexander-Arnold's camp and are optimistic about getting a deal over the line, thus succeeding in their arduous mission to find Dani Carvajal's successor.

Barcelona have reportedly entered talks with the representatives of Atalanta BC attacker Ademola Lookman.

The 27-year-old enjoyed a stellar 2023-24 campaign, winning African Player of the Year while also collecting a Europa League winners medal as part of La Dea.

Lookman has continued his sensational form into the current season, with the former Everton attacker scoring 13 goals and providing five assists across 23 Serie A appearances.

As a result, there has been plenty of interest in the forward from across the European ecosystem, particularly in England, where Chelsea are believed to be preparing a bid.

Liverpool are reportedly aware what it will take to sign Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni during the summer transfer window.

While the Merseyside giants sit at the top of the Premier League table, it is becoming increasingly clear that a busy summer in the market is on the horizon.

Widespread reports have indicated that Trent Alexander-Arnold will be departing Anfield, but Arne Slot's most pressing concern will be regarding the middle of his backline.

Virgil van Dijk has just over two months remaining on his contract, while Ibrahima Konate is yet to commit to a deal longer than 2026.

Barcelona draw up five-man shortlist of Kounde replacements?

Barcelona have reportedly identified five potential replacements for defender Jules Kounde.

Since turning down Chelsea to move to Camp Nou in 2022, Kounde has established himself as a valuable member of the senior squad.

The former Sevilla defender has six goals and 18 assists to his name - largely from right-back - with a total of 131 appearances having been made in all competitions.

However, the France international has reached a stage where he has just over two years remaining on his contract and club officials are eager to agree an extension.

Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly prepared to listen to offers for one of their international midfielders.

The North Londoners are currently enduring one of their worst Premier League campaigns in recent memory, sitting in 14th position in the standings.

Although head coach Ange Postecoglou has guided Spurs through to the Europa League quarter-finals, the position of the Greek-Australian is under threat.

Regardless of who is in charge for 2025-26, there is an inevitability that ongoings and outgoings will ensue to try to move the club back up the table.

Sarabia receives 'dizzying offers' to exit Wolves, teams from three nations involved

© Imago

Pablo Sarabia is seemingly increasingly likely to depart Wolverhampton Wanderers during the summer transfer window.

The Spain international is nearly at the end of a two-and-a-half-year contract that he was convinced to sign to leave Paris Saint-Germain when Julen Lopetegui was in charge at Molineux.

Sarabia has since found himself in and out of the team under different managers, yet the 32-year-old has been a regular under Vitor Pereira whether that be from the start or off the substitutes' bench.

Nevertheless, given the playmaker's age and being one of Wolves' biggest earners, the West Midlands outfit have been in no rush to offer fresh terms when they are in a relegation battle.

Chelsea considering 'two Sancho alternatives' ahead of summer transfer window

Chelsea have reportedly identified two alternatives to Jadon Sancho ahead of the summer transfer window.

The Manchester United winger is currently spending the season on loan at Stamford Bridge, it having been well documented that there are certain terms in place where a permanent deal can be pushed through.

However, with Sancho failing to overly impress during his stint in West London, Chelsea will realistically give consideration to exercising a get-out clause.

Rather than spend in the region of £25m to sign Sancho on a long-term contract, the Blues can allegedly pay approximately £5m to send the 24-year-old back to Old Trafford.

'Mistreatment' and Man United: De Jong 'makes firm decision' on Barcelona future

© Imago

Barcelona and Frenkie de Jong have reportedly entered talks over a new contract after the Dutchman decided that he wanted to stay at Camp Nou.

The former Ajax man has long been linked with a transfer to Manchester United, whose former boss Erik ten Hag relentlessly - and without success - pursued a reunion in the summer of 2022.

The Red Devils' interest has not gone away since Ruben Amorim took charge, though, and it was recently reported that they had a £55m offer turned down by their Spanish counterparts.

At the same time, Blaugrana boss Hansi Flick could not guarantee that De Jong would stay at Barcelona, where the Netherlands international has only started four La Liga games and four Champions League games this season.

Lille striker Jonathan David has once again commented on his future amid talk of a potential free transfer to either Manchester United, Arsenal or Tottenham Hotspur.

The Canada international has already confirmed that he plans to leave Les Dogues at the end of his contract in June, and a multi-team tussle for his services is expected to materialise.

David won the Ligue 1 title in his first season with Lille in 2020-21 and has continued to go from strength to strength at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy, bagging 107 goals and 27 assists in 224 matches across all tournaments.

The 25-year-old has been in red-hot form once again this season with 23 goals and 10 assists in 41 matches in all tournaments, including seven efforts from 10 Champions League games en route to the last 16, where Lille were eliminated by Borussia Dortmund.

Foxes midfielder exit to 'Champions League' club touted as summer rebuild looms

Leicester City midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is reportedly open to a move to Turkish side Galatasaray should his team be relegated from the Premier League.

The Foxes were beaten 3-0 by Manchester United in their most recent Premier League game on March 16, a result that left them second last in 19th place with 17 points.

Given they are already nine points behind 17th-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers, it is difficult to see Ruud van Nistelrooy's side staying in the top flight.

Worrying reports from Turkish-Football.com claim that midfielder Ndidi would prefer to avoid spending a second season in the Championship, saying that he is open to a move to Galatasaray to play Champions League football.
