🤑 Transfer gossip: Real Madrid's summer plans? Dybala's demands? | OneFootball

Welcome to Tuesday’s edition of the transfer gossip.

Here is all of the latest news, rumour and speculation from across the footballing landscape.

Real Talk 👏

After suggestions about their defensive plans in recent days, Chelsea’s interest in signing Declan Rice as a centre-back have now been confirmed by The Times.

Despite Mikel Arteta insisting he wants Alexandre Lacazette to commit to a new deal, L’Equipe report that Juventus, Inter and Atlético are all interested in the striker.

That isn’t the only report related to a Frenchman from that outlet, who also say that Dayot Upamecano has decided to leave RB Leipzig this summer but only for a club where he will be a regular and ideally one with Champions League football.

He has been linked with everyone from Arsenal and Milan to RB Leipzig and Roma but Salzburg standout Dominik Szoboszlai has been urged to join Napoli by his international coach Marco Rossi, who believes he’d be the ‘ideal fit there’.

He isn’t the only player who could end up at the Stadio San Paolo with multiple reports in both France and Italy suggesting Napoli have won the race for Lille’s Victor Osimhen.

Even if they win LaLiga, Real Madrid do not plan to make any signings this summer, say MARCA, and are instead focused on raising €200 million from player sales.

There could be one staying and one leaving from the Arsenal midfield this summer, with the Athletic reporting that Matteo Guendouzi has been exiled to train alone for two weeks, while the club continue to work on a deal to keep Dani Ceballos.

Fake News 😡

While Le10Sport say that Paris Saint-Germain are interested in the idea of bringing Juventus forward Paulo Dybala to the Parc des Princes, it seems very unlikely to happen.

Despite their riches, his wage demands would pose a big stumbling block and Calciomercato state that he remains in discussions with the Old Lady over a new €12m per year deal.

Additionally, the report from the Daily Express that Chelsea are willing to sell six players in order to bring in €100m to fund a move for Kai Havertz seems very excessive.

The players in question are Marcos Alonso, Tiémoué Bakayoko, Emerson, Michy Batshuayi, Kenedy and Danny Drinkwater.

Funniest rumour of the day 🤣

It may just be the wording of it but we were quite amused by a report in the Mirror.

That stated that Bayern Munich will allow David Alaba to decide on his future and whether or not he wants to stay at the club or test himself in the Premier League.

Well, who else was going to make the call on his future?
