European football transfer news on the 25th: Real Madrid targets the Golden Ball winner, Liverpool still wants to sign Isack

The summer transfer window has entered a white-hot stage, and major European giants have frequently signed and cleaned up. From Bayern winger refusing to join Fenerbahce, who coached by Mourinho, to Real Madrid's interest in Manchester City's midfield core, to Liverpool's persistent pursuit of Isak, this week's transfer market is full of highlights.

Bayern winger is hindering the reputation of Mourinho's rejection of Fenerbahce: Bayern Munich hopes to send away 23-year-old Spanish winger Brian Zaragoza. Turkey's team Fenerbahce was once a popular next home and has met Bayern's asking price. But according to German "Kickers", Zaragoza himself rejected the transfer because he was upset about Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho's "reputation".

Last season, Zaragoza was loaned to Spain's Osasuna, played 28 times and contributed 1 goal and 6 assists, and returned to Bayern after the loan period expired. At present, except for Fenerbahce, other potential players are only considering loans, which puts Bayern's cleaning plan to a deadlock.

Real Madrid aims to have a "Golden Ball" midfielder: Rodley becomes the target, and can sign 100 million euros this summer or half price next summer

Spain "As" reported that Real Madrid is interested in signing Manchester City midfielder Rodri. The 29-year-old Spanish international has two action windows for the contract expires in 2027:

This summer: about 100 million euros transfer fee will be paid;

Next summer: the contract has only one year left, and the price may drop to around 50 million euros.

Rodri missed most of the games last season due to a torn cruciate ligament, playing only 8 games (including the Club World Cup), but he is still an indispensable core of Manchester City's midfielder. If Real Madrid successfully signs him, it will greatly enhance the hardness of the midfield.

Muller bid farewell to Bayern and is about to join the 35-year-old Thomas Mueller left Bayern as a free agent after the 2025 Club World Cup. Germany's Sky Sports confirmed that he will go to the 2025 professional career. The most likely next home is Los Angeles team, and the specific ownership will be announced in the next few days.

Last season, Mueller made 49 appearances for Bayern, contributing 8 goals and 8 assists, showing a competitive state with 16 "goals + assists".

Chelsea is close to signing Simmons: Leipzig asks for 70 million euros, and the Blues need to sell first

Leipzig midfielder Xavi Simmons has agreed to join Chelsea. According to Fabrizio Romano, the 22-year-old Dutch international tends to land at Stamford Bridge. Arsenal and Bayern are still waiting and watching, while Chelsea's interest is the most firm.

Leipzig priced Simmons for 70 million euros. Since the team did not qualify for European competition, the players sold were in line with their financial plans. Chelsea must first complete the sale of some players (such as defender Renato Vega) in order to collect enough funds to complete the transaction.

Paris wants to poach Real Madrid midfielder Camavenga: Enrique values his all-roundness

Spanish Marca reported that Paris Saint-Germain coach Luis Enrique hopes to sign Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavenga to strengthen the team's midfield depth.

22-year-old Camavin and has been absent for more than 5 months due to four injuries in the season, and has only made 35 appearances (of which 5 came as left-back), which makes Real Madrid doubt its health. If the Paris offer is appropriate, Real Madrid may consider letting go.

Liverpool has not given up on Isaac: Newcastle's asking price exceeds 125 million euros, and the Reds need to sell Dias first, although Hugo Ekitic has signed, Liverpool is still chasing Newcastle striker Alexander Isaac. Romano confirmed that the Swedes remain the primary goal of the Reds, and whether the transaction can be achieved depends on two points:

1. Whether Newcastle is willing to sell (the asking price exceeds 125 million euros, setting a record in the UK);

2. Whether Liverpool can sell Louis Dias to raise funds.

Isaac made 42 appearances for Newcastle last season, scoring 27 goals and assisting 6 times. His efficient performance made him a hot striker in European football.
