Arsenal outcast aids Pep as Man City 'receive boost' in Cambiaso transfer chase

Manchester City have reportedly received a boost in their hopes of landing Juventus full-back Andrea Cambiaso, as the Bianconeri have identified two ideal replacements for the Italian.
Pep Guardiola's side took an interest in signing Cambiaso during the January transfer window, as confirmed by his agent, but a transfer did not materialise over the winter months.
Juventus were believed to have slapped a £66.7m price tag on the head of the versatile defender, who was tipped to join the Citizens as Kyle Walker's long-term successor, but the Old Lady's asking price proved prohibitive.
Guardiola's full-back worries have been eased by the emergence of young star Nico O'Reilly, though, while Matheus Nunes and Rico Lewis are capable of covering on the right-hand side of the backline.
Adam's assurances: Wharton 'lays out demands' for £50m Liverpool move

Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton has allegedly laid out his demands to make the move to Premier League champions Liverpool in a £50m deal this summer.
All throughout the 2024-25 campaign, Arne Slot has witnessed Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch excel in the middle of the park, and the former took home the man-of-the-match prize from their title-clinching 5-1 battering of Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
Mac Allister put the Reds 2-1 up on the day with a stunning strike from outside the box, prior to which Gravenberch had prevented Archie Gray from latching onto a loose pass by effectively getting his body in the way.
However, Mac Allister and Gravenberch have been short of genuine cover all season, and Slot's midfield ranks could be thinned further if both Wataru Endo and Tyler Morton leave this summer.
Gunners and Reds transfer blow as Arteta and Slot look to strengthen in attack

Bayern Munich winger Leroy Sane has reportedly rejected interest from Arsenal and Liverpool and has agreed to sign an extension to keep him in Germany.
Arsenal look destined to finish second behind Liverpool in the Premier League, and given they have often had to use midfielder Mikel Merino in the forward line, it would not be surprising if they looked to strengthen in the summer.
Though Liverpool are on the verge of clinching the top-flight title, they have been reliant on the output of 32-year-old Mohamed Salah to help them build their lead over the Gunners.
Mikel Arteta and Arne Slot will almost certainly be competing for the Premier League next term, and the destination of the title may be decided by which attacking players each club signs in the summer.
La Liga Lewandowski 'replacement' linked to Barca as Flick plans for future

Barcelona are reported to be keen on signing Atletico Madrid striker Julian Alvarez, who has been touted as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski.
Hansi Flick's side emerged as 3-2 winners against fierce rivals Real Madrid on Saturday in the final of the Copa Del Rey, winning the first trophy of a potential treble.
Barca are first in La Liga and are in the semi-finals of the Champions League, with the Spanish giants considered one of the favourites to win the competition.
The club's remarkable success this campaign has been spearheaded by the deadly front three of Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Lewandowski.
£68m bid 'prepared' as PSG 'target summer move' for Real Madrid midfielder

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly preparing to make an €80m (£68m) offer for Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga.
The 22-year-old will not play again for Los Blancos this season, while he is also expected to miss the Club World Cup, due to the abductor injury that he suffered in the La Liga clash with Getafe last week.
Camavinga will therefore end the 2024-25 campaign with two goals and two assists in 34 appearances for Carlo Ancelotti's side, and there has been criticism of his performances during the current season.
The France international signed a new contract at Bernabeu in November 2023, with his deal running until June 2029, but it is believed that Real Madrid would be willing to let him leave for the right price this summer.
Christensen 'makes major call' over Barcelona future amid exit talk
/https%3A%2F%2Fsportsmole-media-prod.s3.gra.io.cloud.ovh.net%2F24%2F50%2Fandreas-christensen.jpg "Barcelona's Andreas Christensen on August 12, 2024")
Andreas Christensen reportedly has no desire to leave Barcelona this summer, with the Denmark international intending to remain with the Catalan giants until his contract expires in the summer of 2026.
The 29-year-old has had an incredibly frustrating campaign due to injury, spending a lengthy period out with an Achilles issue before picking up a muscular problem, and he has only played once for Barcelona this term.
Christensen was again an unused substitute in the Copa del Rey final on Saturday evening, and he is down the pecking order when it comes to the centre-back spots at Camp Nou, with Pau Cubarsi, Ronald Araujo, Inigo Martinez and Eric Garcia all ahead of him.
The Dane proved to be an important player for the Catalan team during the 2023-24 campaign, though, making 42 appearances in all competitions, and he spent time in central midfield last term due to the club's injury problems.
Five-year deal on the table: Man United 'move a step closer' to signing 'top transfer target'

Manchester United are reportedly preparing to offer Matheus Cunha a five-year contract with the option of an additional 12 months, as the Red Devils seemingly move closer to a deal for the Wolverhampton Wanderers attacker.
The Brazil international has been in excellent form for Wolves during the 2024-25 campaign, scoring 17 goals and registering six in 32 appearances in all competitions, including 15 goals and six assists in the Premier League.
Cunha starred during Wolves' 3-0 success over Leicester City on Saturday afternoon, finding the back of the net before coming up with two assists, and he has been one of the standout players in England's top flight this term.
Man United's interest in the 25-year-old is not new; the Red Devils were linked with him during his time at Atletico Madrid, while Arsenal are also believed to be long-term admirers of the Brazilian.
