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

Wolves reignite Zinchenko interest.

Wolves are ready to restart their pursuit of Manchester City full-back Oleksandr Zinchenko when the transfer market reopens.

The Ukraine international has featured sparingly for the Sky Blues so far this season, and the Midlands outfit could use his lack of minutes to their advantage in making a bid for the defender in January.

Wolves made an unsuccessful approach for Zinchenko last summer as the defender decided to stay at the Etihad and fight his way into Pep Guardiola’s line-up. [Daily Star]

Zidane ‘pushing’ Isco out of Real Madrid.

Isco is being pushed towards the Real Madrid exit door by manager Zinedine Zidane.

The Spanish midfielder has seen just 13 minutes of Champions League action so far this term. He also played no part in the crucial La Liga games against the likes of Barcelona, Sevilla, or Atletico Madrid.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the 28-year-old is not wanted by Zidane and is not in his future plans for the club. [Marca]

Man City keen on Haaland.

Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Haaland is a summer transfer target for Manchester City.

The Sky Blues identify the prolific 20-year-old as a long-term replacement for Sergio Aguero, who is yet to open contract talks, as he approaches the end of his career at the Etihad.

Man City could face a battle from crosstown rivals Manchester United as well as Real Madrid for his signing.

PSG join Memphis chase.

Paris Saint-Germain are weighing up their options to land Lyon’s Memphis Depay in the summer.

The move is backed by PSG’s stars Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, with the pair holding the Dutch forward in high regard.

Depay’s contract with Lyon is due to expire in June, and PSG will have to fend off competition from FC Barcelona, who have long been associated with the player, to seal his transfer. [Le Parisien]
