Transfer 1+2: Liverpool striker may reduce the price and transfer to Serie A championship. Manchester United s 33-year-old veteran refuses to go to Saudi Arabia

Reds forward transfers are in a standstill

According to the latest reports, Darwin Nunes has agreed to join Naples, but the joining time still needs to wait, as Liverpool demands a transfer fee of £70 million. As of now, the Reds are still the most spent team in the Premier League this summer. After signing Flynnon, Wilz and Kerket, the club's spending has reached nearly £200 million. If the Premier League champions sign Crystal Palace centre-back Mark Guy, their spending will exceed the £200 million mark, but reports say Slot is also eager to bring in a striker. However, it wouldn't be surprising if Liverpool hopes to recycle some of their spending this summer to fund their pursuit of the No. 9 player. British media said striker Nunes is ready to join Naples, but the Reds want to ensure funds are used for further signings, so there has not yet been a concession to the Uruguayan player's £70 million valuation. While Naples is unlikely to afford to pay £70 million for Nunes, the Merseyside club may still agree to a fee of about £50 million. Winter Luis Dias may also leave the team, and Barcelona and Saudi professional leagues have expressed interest in him, and the striker is expected to be worth more than £70 million. Perhaps Liverpool could raise funds by selling Xavi Elliott, a player who performed well in the England U21 win over Germany on Saturday. Teams like Brighton are said to appreciate the English player, but the Seagulls may be discouraged by his £45 million offer. Liverpool will certainly receive a fee of up to £35m after agreeing to sell centre-back Quarner to Leverkusen, and apparently Slot's transfer budget could increase significantly in the coming weeks.

The two Premier League teams compete to compete for the A midfielder

Brentford is reportedly preparing to compete with Leeds United in order to sign midfielder Noah Sadiki of Belgium's San Giros Club. Leeds United are preparing to return to the Premier League after winning the Championship last season, and they are eager to strengthen their midfield strength. Previously, Leeds United and Strasbourg captain Habib Diyala were closely linked, but now they seem to be "intercepted" by Sunderland, who are also promoted teams. Therefore, Daniel Falke's team turned their attention to alternative targets - Sadiki of Sangiros, but they still need to face another round of competition to sign the Democratic Republic of Congo international. According to British media, Brentford has now joined the midfielder's competition. Currently, Sadiki has two years left in the contract with San Giros. Brentford has listed Sadiki as a viable target for strengthening midfield strength before Keith Andrews' first season. The latest news shows that Leeds United and German club Frankfurt have contacted the players' camp on personal terms. Sadiki played 55 official games for Belgium's San Giros last season, helping the team end the 90-year wait for the top league championship, which has attracted a lot of attention. Brentford may see Sadiki as a potential replacement for captain Christian Nolgao. Norgo has played for Brentford for six years and is about to leave the team - Arsenal has reached an agreement with Brentford to sign Norgo for an initial price of 10 million pounds and up to 15 million pounds (including additional terms). Norgo will make a formal transfer after completing the physical examination, which will leave a clear vacancy in the Brentford midfield.

Red Devils midfielder may stay in the team this summer

It is reported that Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has decided to stay in the team, although Saudi Arabia has expressed interest in him. Red Devils coach Ruben Amorim is looking to revive the team after a poor performance in the 2024-25 season. Manchester United ranked 15th in the Premier League last season and failed to qualify for the European Cup. The club's poor performance highlights the weak links in multiple positions. Although many point out that the forward line is the reason for the team's sluggish form, there are also problems in the midfield. Commentators like Carragher have bluntly criticized Casemiro, saying he sometimes struggled to adapt to the intensity of the top league. However, British media reported that the 33-year-old will reject the invitation from the Saudi professional league and continue to stay in Old Trafford. At the end of the season, Casemiro performed better than many expected, and the Brazilian player successfully squeezed Manuel Ugat out of the starting lineup. Although the midfielder did experience a certain recovery in the later stages, he has been unstable throughout the season and there are risks of relying on the older star. Casemiro's decision to stay in the team may give Amorim a headache, with Amorim's transfer budget limited due to financial difficulties. Casemiro's weekly salary is £350,000, and if his salary can be removed from the payroll, it will undoubtedly enhance the club's ability to sign in the summer. It should be noted that the 33-year-old is not the only player who is difficult to send away, and players such as Marcus Rashford and Jaden Sancho have been difficult to find their next home so far.
