Will it extend? At the end of the contract, Alexis Sanchez is not lacking in opportunities… And obviously, the Chilean has not yet decided on his future. Olympique de Marseille, which is pushing to keep it, thus remains (still) in the dark. Javier Ribalta explained it in the program Les Réservistes broadcast on Youtube: “We are waiting with the new coach. For him (Sanchez), it’s also important to know who’s coming, we’ll see in the next few days. It is true that he has important offers. We have to discuss with the new coach and him with his entourage and with us too, said the director of Marseille football. Today, I can’t say if he will continue or not. It’s the truth.” Aged 34, the versatile striker carried the formation of La Canebière in 2022-2023 with in particular 14 goals and 3 assists in 35 Ligue 1 matches.
Free since the end of his contract with PSG, Christophe Galtier has several suitors in the Middle East. Indeed, as Foot Mercato and RMC Sport revealed, the French coach would be in the small papers of Al-Shabab (Saudi Arabia) but also in those of Al-Duhail (Qatar). Will the 56-year-old technician be sensitive to any of these proposals? As a reminder, the one who led LOSC to the title of French champion in 2020-2021 will be tried on December 15 by the Nice criminal court on suspicion of discrimination.
It would be done. After successfully passing the traditional medical examinations, Kim Min-jae would have signed his contract with FC Bayern Munich, reports Fabrizio Romano this Saturday. The South Korean defender would have signed up with the Bavarian club for the next five seasons, i.e. until June 2028. The cost of the operation would amount to 50 M€ (the amount of his release clause). Aged 26, Kim Min-jae was one of SSC Napoli’s strong men in 2022-2023 when they won the Scudetto (35 matches, 2 goals, 2 assists).
He only stayed for a year. Arrived free last summer at Inter Milan after the end of his adventure with Ajax Amsterdam, André Onana would be on the verge of joining Manchester United, reports Fabrizio Romano. The Cameroonian is said to have already agreed with the Red Devils regarding the terms of his contract. The two formations should find a complete agreement in the coming days. Aged 27, the goalkeeper, who had a great season with the Nerazzurri, should be the next number one for the Mancunian club. As a reminder, David de Gea, at the end of the contract, has still not extended.
Tracked by FC Bayern Munich, Kyle Walker, who also has an extension offer from Manchester City, has still not decided on his future. However, according to the latest revelations unveiled by Fabrizio Romano, the British defender should make up his mind shortly. Thomas Tuchel, the Bavarian coach, would push hard to seduce the 33-year-old player. Will the efforts of the German technician be enough to convince him?
It’s only a matter of time. Christian Pulisic is reportedly set to leave Chelsea to join AC Milan, reports The Guardian. The two teams are said to be in the process of finalizing an agreement. The operation should amount to 22 M€. Aged 24, the attacking midfielder was notably courted by Olympique Lyonnais. The American joined the Blues in the summer of 2019 from Borussia Dortmund for €64m.
It would be done. According to the latest information revealed by Fabrizio Romano, FC Barcelona would have sent all the administrative documents to Club Athletico Paranaense concerning the transfer of Vitor Roque. The Blaugrana only have to wait for the return of the Brazilian formation before being able to formalize the operation. Aged 18, the transfer of the (very) promising striker would amount to €30 million in fixed compensation and nearly €31 million in bonuses. The Brazilian is expected to join Catalonia from January 2024.
