Ligue 1 powerhouse Paris Saint-Germain is preparing for life without their departing star forward Kylian Mbappe. According to UK media outlet Daily Mirror, PSG is looking to pursue a move for Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford.

Reportedly, PSG is ready to offer £75 million ($95 million) in hopes to entice Man Utd to let Rashford go. The Premier League side is believed to be open to discussions but will likely hold out for a bid of £100 million ($127.5 million).

It is believed that Rashford is PSG’s primary target but also not the only one. If they are able to get a deal done with Manchester United, the French club is expected to turn to Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.

While Manchester United considers Rashford to be a key player, they also need to comply with the Financial Fair Play rules. Netting a huge transfer sum for Rashford would alleviate these concerns and open up the possibility for other moves in the summer.

PSG also pursued Rashford back in 2022, when they were reportedly willing to give him wages in the range of £400,000-a-week. At the time, the England international opted to stay at Old Trafford and later signed a new deal with Red Devils.

Rashford has underperformed this season, scoring just seven goals and adding six assists in 34 matches in all competitions. For comparison, he finished 2022-23 with 30 goals in 56 matches.

Despite a flurry of reports that he’s considering a shocking return to professional soccer, former Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero is insisting that he will remain retired.

Various media outlets reported that Aguero, who retired in 2021 due to a heart condition, is considering a comeback and will train with the Argentinean side Independiente. Aguero started his professional career with the club, which is currently being managed by his friend and former Argentina teammate Carlos Tevez.

“It’s totally a lie, I’m not going to train with Independiente,” Aguero said during a recent Twitch stream as reported by ESPN. “Sometimes things are invented. I reiterate that the cardiologist said that I am well, that it is important that I am in good health. But to return to training at the First Division level, I would need to undergo a lot of tests.”

Aguero’s comments come after Tevez recently told the media that he would welcome Aguero to the club if he were to change his mind about playing professionally again.

Sergio Aguero is best known for his time with Manchester City, where he played between 2011 and 2021. He became the club’s all-time leading scorer with 260 goals during that time and helped City win 15 trophies, including five Premier League titles.

Aguero left City as a free agent in the summer of 2021 in order to sign with Barcelona. However, he only played five games for the La Liga powerhouse before a heart condition forced him to retire.

La Liga giants Real Madrid is no longer interested in Paris Saint-Germain’s star forward Kylian Mbappe. According to a recent report by Spanish media outlet Cadena SER, Real won’t make an offer to Mbappé even if he becomes a free agent this upcoming summer.

Real has been pursuing Mbappe for several years now, but PSG rejected several of their attempts to sign the Frenchman. The player himself also opted to ink a new contract with Ligue 1 champions in the summer of 2022 despite being a free agent.

Mbappe is now set to become a free agent in the summer of 2024 again and reportedly isn’t interested in remaining with PSG. Many believed this would finally open the doors for Real Madrid, but the Spanish club is now the one who isn’t interested in doing business.

Reportedly, the biggest issue for Real is that Mbappe is looking for a big signing bonus while also demanding a salary north of $20 million on an annual basis. The club wants to stick with a sustainable transfer policy that doesn’t include huge salary discrepancies in the squad and made a decision to focus on young talents.

Even with Real Madrid out of the race, Kylian Mbappe is expected to attract interest from all other big European sides. He can sign a pre-contract with his new club as soon as January.

All things point out that Wales star forward Gareth Bale is nearing the end of his stint with La Liga giants Real Madrid. If this ends up being the case, his next destination might be Italy, where AC Milan is believed to be interested in his services.

Calciomercato reports that AC Milan is ready to make a move for Bale in the summer when the 32-year-old player becomes a free agent. It is believed that the club’s sporting director Paolo Maldini already got in touch with the player’s representatives to see if the Welshman would be in favor of the move.

Bale has been out of favor at Real, making only five appearances in all competitions this season. However, he played better for the national team, scoring two goals earlier this month in a 2-1 win over Austria in the European qualifiers. The latter led the interested clubs, which also include Championship side Cardiff City and his former club Tottenham Hotspur, to believe Bale can still be a difference-maker with a chance of scenery.

But while Gareth Bale might have his options in the summer, it might all be for nothing. English media recently reported that the nagging injuries could lead Bale to retire from soccer altogether. If Wales manages to get to the 2022 World Cup, he would be interested in signing a short-term deal and then quitting after the tournament. On the other hand, if his national team doesn’t manage to get in, Bale could walk away as soon as his contract with Real Madrid runs out.

Various rumors have long situated Spanish giants Real Madrid with interest in adding a striker, and a new name has emerged as a potential target for Zinedine Zidane’s squad heading into the 2020-21 season.

England and Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane is now a top target in Real Madrid’s effort towards improving its attack this summer, according to Spanish newspaper SPORT.

Kane, who has scored 17 goals in 25 games across all competitions for the North London side this season, is one of the premier strikers in the sport. He has been unwaveringly loyal to the squad where he played as a youth since joining its senior team in 2009, only leaving on loan stints.

Recent frustration with his club’s inability to win titles on an international and domestic level, however, has reportedly frustrated the 26-year-old, and has led him to consider other options.

It certainly wouldn’t be cheap for Real Madrid to acquire the London native’s services, as he is currently the sixth-most valuable player in the sport according to Transfermarkt. However, he would undoubtedly provide a boost in front of the goal for a team that has at times been frustrated by its lack of striking punch this season.

If Kane decides that he wants a new challenge and Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is willing to pay the high fee that will be required for his services, the English superstar could be on his way to a new league and country in the fall.

With constant rumors surrounding Jadon Sancho’s possible move away from Borussia Dortmund this summer, team president Hans Joachim Watzke has come out and named his price for the star forward.

In an interview with Bild Sport over the weekend, Watzke stated that it will not be cheap to buy the services of the 20-year-old phenom despite the expected fall in transfer costs due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The German club is set to demand at least $143 million for the sale of their star player and they certainly wouldn’t be upset to earn even more if a bidding war breaks out.

Sancho has been linked to a number of the biggest clubs in English soccer over the past several months. The London native reportedly has clubs such as Manchester United and Chelsea ready to make moves for his services on the pitch.

The England international has scored 17 goals and provided 19 assists between Bundesliga, Champions League, and cup action this season in 35 games, outstanding numbers for a winger.

Sancho also scored his first goal for the national team in September in a 5-3 European qualifying win over Kosovo.

The young star could very well be on the move this summer, but teams now know that taking him away from Borussia Dortmund will be neither cheap nor easy.

Belgian right-back Thomas Meunier’s time in France seems to be over. Reportedly, Meunier decided to join Borussia Dortmund in the summer after failing to agree on a new deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

Meunier is on an expiring contract, but was hoping to remain with PSG. The Ligue 1 side, however, didn’t make him a satisfying offer, which allowed Dortmund to snatch the 28-year-old.

According to ESPN FC, Meunier will ink a four-year deal with Bundesliga powerhouse, which will pay him around $55 million overall. He most likely comes to Dortmund as a replacement for Achraf Hakimi, whose loan spell with Borussia expires in the summer.

After playing out his early career in native Belgium, Thomas Meunier joined PSG in 2016 in a transfer worth $7.5 million. While Meunier was solid in France for most of his time there, he never managed to establish himself as a part of the starting 11. This was particularly the case this season, as he only made 12 appearances in Ligue 1.

Besides Meunier, PSG will part ways with several other veterans in the summer, including Layvin Kurzawa, Edinson Cavani, and Thiago Silva. All three players are also on an expiring contract.

Real Madrid’s Zinedine Zidane made his press conference appearance on Monday prior to his squad’s crucial Champions League matchup against Paris Saint-Germain.

One of the biggest topics of conversation was, of course, PSG’s young superstar, Kylian Mbappe. Zidane didn’t hide his adoration for the wunderkid when asked about the 20-year-old forward.

When asked about the French starlet, Zidane said, ” I’ve known him for a long time. I’ve been in love with him for a long time, but as a person first.”

The young star’s compatriot’s comments did nothing to slow down the rumors that have tied Mbappe to Los Blancos for the better part of the past year.

PSG coach Thomas Tuchel didn’t take too well to Zidane’s admitted adulation for his team’s top star, saying “Kylian is our player. We are trying to create a team with him. I do not want to consider Kylian departing anytime soon .”

Mbappe has had yet another sensational start to the 2019-20 season, scoring 9 goals and recording 4 assists in 12 official games in the first few months of the campaign.

The Parisians will look for Mbappe to lead them to at least a point against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, which would clinch first place in their group in the Champions League.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has spent the past two seasons establishing himself as one of the most colorful and memorable characters to have played in the MLS.

Now, at the age of 38, he is looking to move back to Europe to finish his career, and according to MLS Commissioner Don Graber, he has one suitor that is pushing for him hard.

In an interview with ESPN on Thursday, Graber said: “He is being recruited by Milan, one of the biggest clubs in the world.”

It has long been speculated that Ibrahimovic could look to rejoin his former Serie A club, and it appears that the recruiting process has already started. The Swedish striker played for AC Milan for two seasons from 2010 to 2012, appearing in 61 games and scoring a total of 42 goals.

Nearing the twilight of his career, the polarizing character has shown no signs of slowing down. Since joining the LA Galaxy at the beginning of the 2018 season, Ibrahimovic has dominated Major League soccer, scoring 52 goals in only 56 matches.

Despite nearing the age of 40, Zlatan still clearly has something left in the tank, and it looks like AC Milan will be pushing hard to acquire his services in this winter’s transfer window.

Despite a flurry of reports that he’s considering a shocking return to professional soccer, former Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero is insisting that he will remain retired.

Various media outlets reported that Aguero, who retired in 2021 due to a heart condition, is considering a comeback and will train with the Argentinean side Independiente. Aguero started his professional career with the club, which is currently being managed by his friend and former Argentina teammate Carlos Tevez.

“It’s totally a lie, I’m not going to train with Independiente,” Aguero said during a recent Twitch stream as reported by ESPN. “Sometimes things are invented.

Sergio Aguero is best known for his time with Manchester City, where he played between 2011 and 2021. He became the club’s all-time leading scorer with 260 goals during that time and helped City win 15 trophies, including five Premier League titles.

Aguero left City as a free agent in the summer of 2021 in order to sign with Barcelona. However, he only played five games for the La Liga powerhouse before a heart condition forced him to retire.

Various rumors have long situated Spanish giants Real Madrid with interest in adding a striker, and a new name has emerged as a potential target for Zinedine Zidane’s squad heading into the 2020-21 season.

England and Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Kane is now a top target in Real Madrid’s effort towards improving its attack this summer, according to Spanish newspaper SPORT.

Kane, who has scored 17 goals in 25 games across all competitions for the North London side this season, is one of the premier strikers in the sport. He has been unwaveringly loyal to the squad where he played as a youth since joining its senior team in 2009, only leaving on loan stints.

With constant rumors surrounding Jadon Sancho’s possible move away from Borussia Dortmund this summer, team president Hans Joachim Watzke has come out and named his price for the star forward.

In an interview with Bild Sport over the weekend, Watzke stated that it will not be cheap to buy the services of the 20-year-old phenom despite the expected fall in transfer costs due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The German club is set to demand at least $143 million for the sale of their star player and they certainly wouldn’t be upset to earn even more if a bidding war breaks out.

Sancho has been linked to a number of the biggest clubs in English soccer over the past several months. The London native reportedly has clubs such as Manchester United and Chelsea ready to make moves for his services on the pitch.

The England international has scored 17 goals and provided 19 assists between Bundesliga, Champions League, and cup action this season in 35 games, outstanding numbers for a winger.

Sancho also scored his first goal for the national team in September in a 5-3 European qualifying win over Kosovo.

The young star could very well be on the move this summer, but teams now know that taking him away from Borussia Dortmund will be neither cheap nor easy.

Belgian right-back Thomas Meunier’s time in France seems to be over. Reportedly, Meunier decided to join Borussia Dortmund in the summer after failing to agree on a new deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

Meunier is on an expiring contract, but was hoping to remain with PSG. The Ligue 1 side, however, didn’t make him a satisfying offer, which allowed Dortmund to snatch the 28-year-old.

According to ESPN FC, Meunier will ink a four-year deal with Bundesliga powerhouse, which will pay him around $55 million overall. He most likely comes to Dortmund as a replacement for Achraf Hakimi, whose loan spell with Borussia expires in the summer.

After playing out his early career in native Belgium, Thomas Meunier joined PSG in 2016 in a transfer worth $7.5 million. While Meunier was solid in France for most of his time there, he never managed to establish himself as a part of the starting 11. This was particularly the case this season, as he only made 12 appearances in Ligue 1.

Besides Meunier, PSG will part ways with several other veterans in the summer, including Layvin Kurzawa, Edinson Cavani, and Thiago Silva. All three players are also on an expiring contract.

Real Madrid’s Zinedine Zidane made his press conference appearance on Monday prior to his squad’s crucial Champions League matchup against Paris Saint-Germain.

One of the biggest topics of conversation was, of course, PSG’s young superstar, Kylian Mbappe. Zidane didn’t hide his adoration for the wunderkid when asked about the 20-year-old forward.

When asked about the French starlet, Zidane said, ” I’ve known him for a long time. I’ve been in love with him for a long time, but as a person first.”

The young star’s compatriot’s comments did nothing to slow down the rumors that have tied Mbappe to Los Blancos for the better part of the past year.

PSG coach Thomas Tuchel didn’t take too well to Zidane’s admitted adulation for his team’s top star, saying “Kylian is our player. We are trying to create a team with him. I do not want to consider Kylian departing anytime soon .”

Mbappe has had yet another sensational start to the 2019-20 season, scoring 9 goals and recording 4 assists in 12 official games in the first few months of the campaign.

The Parisians will look for Mbappe to lead them to at least a point against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu on Tuesday, which would clinch first place in their group in the Champions League.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has spent the past two seasons establishing himself as one of the most colorful and memorable characters to have played in the MLS.

Now, at the age of 38, he is looking to move back to Europe to finish his career, and according to MLS Commissioner Don Graber, he has one suitor that is pushing for him hard.

In an interview with ESPN on Thursday, Graber said: “He is being recruited by Milan, one of the biggest clubs in the world.”

It has long been speculated that Ibrahimovic could look to rejoin his former Serie A club, and it appears that the recruiting process has already started. The Swedish striker played for AC Milan for two seasons from 2010 to 2012, appearing in 61 games and scoring a total of 42 goals.

Nearing the twilight of his career, the polarizing character has shown no signs of slowing down. Since joining the LA Galaxy at the beginning of the 2018 season, Ibrahimovic has dominated Major League soccer, scoring 52 goals in only 56 matches.

Despite nearing the age of 40, Zlatan still clearly has something left in the tank, and it looks like AC Milan will be pushing hard to acquire his services in this winter’s transfer window.
