Good morning everyone! Welcome to the latest edition of my Daily Briefing, enjoy!
There are no talks ongoing between Al Nassr and Marcelo at this stage — his future remains open. The Brazilian left back is now exploring options after contract terminated with Olympiacos, he’s available on a free transfer — nothing has been decided yet.
Despite reports to the contrary, at the moment I’m not aware of any negotiation between Arsenal and Inter for Denzel Dumfries. They are exploring right back options and Ivan Fresneda remains appreciated, they are sending scouts regularly to follow him, but Dumfries has completely different value for Inter and at the moment his situation is still quiet.
All three of Arsenal, Man City and Man United are in the title race, in my opinion. I’m not big fan of making predictions, and I love to enjoy football at top level – this year the title race is really amazing and I’m sure it will be until the final 1/2 games of the Premier League. I think City will be there until the end to fight, but I still see Arsenal as favourites; I love their mentality.
Gladbach director Virkus confirms that Marcus Thuram will leave on a free: “We have to accept that there are bigger clubs where Marcus might go.”
Thuram has proposals from England, Italy and Spain after Chelsea interest in January.
A deal for Marcus Thuram didn’t happen because Chelsea had the player on their list but it was never close. The priority was Mykhaylo Mudryk and they’ve been able to sign him. Thuram always wanted to decide his future in the final months of his contract, not in January. Thuram has many proposals from England, Spain and Italy too; decision will be later this year.
I think the best idea for Mason Mount and Chelsea is to continue together, he just needs more confidence but I think he’s an amazing player. In case contract talks do end up collapsing, he’d be a great option for every club including Liverpool; but I hope Chelsea and Mount will find a way together.
Inter CEO Beppe Marotta: “We’re now working to extend the contract of Hakan Calhanoglu. We’re in talks with his agents, contacts will continue with him and more players.”
Negotiations with Calhanoglu are advanced, Inter also want to extend Alessandro Bastoni’s contract.
