The latest transfer rumors from around the footballing world, including Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, and much more.

Ancelotti wants to sign Werner from Chelsea

Timo Werner has emerged as a summer transfer target for new Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti.

Despite only signing Werner last summer for €53 million from RB Leipzig, Chelsea are allegedly not against the idea of selling him for an affordable price. Therefore, Ancelotti is encouraged and would welcome the versatile forward to Real Madrid.

Sterling to replace Dembele at Barcelona?

With only a year left on his contract, Ousmane Dembele’s Barcelona future is under a cloud. Talks for a new deal have made little progress. The Frenchman’s situation has even reportedly captured the interest of Paris Saint-Germain.

Should Dembele leave, Barcelona believe Raheem Sterling could be an ideal replacement. The Manchester City winger may be open to a Camp Nou move after struggling to win over Pep Guardiola last season. [Sport]

Manchester United shortlist three Sancho alternatives

Signing Jadon Sancho from Borussia Dortmund this summer is Manchester United’s transfer priority.

But if the 21-year-old doesn’t arrive, the Red Devils will turn their attention to signing either Chelsea’s Callum Hudson-Odoi, Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele, or Juventus’ Cristiano Ronaldo. [Express]

Arsenal close in on a deal for Onana

The Gunners are close to completing a deal to sign Ajax goalkeeper Andre Onana.

Despite having not agreed on a transfer fee with Ajax yet, Mikel Arteta’s side are confident. Onana is seen as a replacement for the club’s first-choice keeper Bernd Leno. Although the Cameroonian is still serving a 12-month ban from football after breaching doping regulations.

Pending the result of an appeal, Onana may have to wait until January or next summer to complete his Arsenal transfer. [Football London]
