Transfer gossip: Dybala to Real Madrid? Ramsey to Juve this month? | OneFootball

Let’s not mess about today. There’s plenty of gossip going around with some of the biggest clubs on the continent looking to do business before the window shuts next Thursday.

Here’s some the juiciest tidbits.

Real talk 👏

We all know that Aaron Ramsey is off to Juventus in the summer, but a new report from the Independent has claimed that the Wales international could be allowed to join this month – only though, on two conditions. Arsenal would need to sign both Denis Suárez from Barcelona and James Rodríguez from Bayern Munich before they would give Ramsey their blessing to leave halfway through the camapign. Better fire up that fax machine, guys.

On Tuesday we wrote in these pages that Paris Saint-Germain had made an offer for Everton’s Idrissa Gueye. The reigning Ligue 1 champions had, according to L’Equipe, offered €25m for the midfielder which, as you can imagine, was swiftly rejected by the Toffees. Now though, a story in the Mirror has claimed that with the Senegal international angling for a move to Parc des Princes, the Merseyside outfit will accept €40m.

It looks as if AC Milan have found the striker they’re looking for, freeing up Gonzalo Higuaín to join Chelsea and in turn allow Álvaro Morata to go to Atlético Madrid. That man is Genoa’s Krzysztof Piątek, who looks likely to join the Rossoneri for €35m with just the details to be finalised. The striker merry-go-round really is in oiled up and in full swing.

Fake news 😡

Our old friends at The Sun – well-known for their high-level contacts inside Santiago Bernabéu – say that Real Madrid will make a €100m move for Paulo Dybala in the summer. That they may do, but are Juventus accepting €100m for Dybala? Not a chance.

Fantasy football ⭐️

Big Sam’s back doing his media rounds which means only one thing: the human gravy boat is after a new job. But in the meantime, he’s been regaling talkSPORT with tales of his Everton days and reveals that he was close to signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Borussia Dortmund. Fantasy football, indeed.

Gelson Martins has endured a pretty terrible first six months at Atlético Madrid but imagine his face if he was told by the club that he was moving to Newcastle on loan? That’s what’s going to happen, say AS, who believe that the Magpies have offered €5m to take the winger until the end of the season.

What you missed yesterday 👇

The biggest news of the day came with the announcement that Chris Mepham – one of the Championship’s most promising defenders at Brentford – had joined Bournemouth for €15m. Watch out for this kid.
