Gabriel Jesus leaving Arsenal to return to Brazil?
Palmeiras president Leila Ferreira has announced that the club is planning to bring Gabriel Jesus back from Arsenal in the near future. She shared a heartfelt message: “Soon enough, Gabriel, you will come back home!”expressing the desire to reunite with the star who was developed in their youth academy.
According to sources in England, Arsenal is open to offers for Jesus, who has not played since January due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury. With no spot in the Champions League squad, the 28-year-old striker’s return to Palmeiras in the upcoming transfer window is quite possible.
Man Utd plans to sign a new midfielder to replace Casemiro
Sky Sports reports that Manchester United aims to recruit a high-quality central midfielder in the summer 2026 transfer window rather than rushing signings in January. This decision is part of a long-term squad restructuring plan, as key players including Casemiro are nearing contract expiration and will not be renewed due to age and declining form.
Man Utd has added Brighton’s Carlos Baleba and Nottingham Forest’s young talent Elliot Anderson to their watchlist. Baleba nearly joined Old Trafford before and is seen as the ideal successor to Casemiro. The club wants to build a youthful, dynamic midfield with long-term growth potential instead of splurging on short-term deals.
Man Utd breaks the bank for a €90 million star
According to Sky Sports Italia, Manchester United is preparing a €90 million offer for Kenan Yildiz, Juventus’s 20-year-old prodigy. The Turkish player is regarded as one of Serie A’s most promising attacking talents, known for his technique, speed, and rare ability to create chances.
United sees Yildiz as a strategic piece to rebuild their attack and compete strongly in Europe. However, the deal is complicated because Juventus recently extended his contract until 2029, and Chelsea and Arsenal are also interested. Still, Man Utd believes that the €90 million price tag and the chance to become a Premier League key player might persuade Yildiz to leave Turin next summer.
Ter Stegen considers leaving Barcelona, heading to the Premier League
Spanish media reports that Marc-Andre Ter Stegen is weighing a move from Barcelona to Newcastle United in the winter transfer window. The German goalkeeper faces three key factors influencing his future: recovery from back surgery, acceptance of a new role with a salary cut, and financial agreement between the two clubs.
Barcelona aims to reduce their wage bill and is willing to listen to reasonable offers, while Newcastle views Ter Stegen as the perfect upgrade for their defense. If he fully recovers, embraces the new challenge, and Barcelona agrees on the transfer fee, this could be one of the most notable Premier League signings in the winter.
Liverpool targets Willian Pacho from PSG
Liverpool is considering signing Ecuadorian center-back Willian Pacho from Paris Saint-Germain to strengthen their defense for the next season. The 23-year-old impressed in Ligue 1 with his reading of the game and aerial ability, seen as a potential replacement if the Reds fail to sign Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace.
Pacho’s contract with PSG runs until 2029, making this a challenging deal as his value is estimated around €65 million. Nonetheless, Liverpool’s management believes his consistent form, youth, and European experience make him an ideal defensive addition. If negotiations succeed, this could be one of the Premier League’s most significant defensive signings in the upcoming window.
