Transfer Rumors: Manchester United to offer €200m and Pogba for Neymar
@soccernews takes a look at the biggest transfer news and rumours from the top leagues in Europe and the realistic possibilities of the transfers.
Manchester United to offer €200m and Pogba for Neymar
As per Don Balon, Manchester United are said to be ready to contribute €200 million and Paul Pogba in exchange for PSG star Neymar.
The Brazilian star is said to be happy if he was to work under Jose Mourinho, with whom Pogba has had his difficulties this season. However, PSG would reportedly demand €400m for Neymar after his arrival in a €222m deal last summer.
Having just moved the last summer, it is highly unlikely that PSG would be letting their central star leave.
Outcome: Unlikely
Juventus eyeing Dembele
Juventus are said to be interested in Mousa Dembele from Tottenham as reported by the Evening Standard.
The 30-year-old midfielder's contract expires at the end of next season, and the Serie A side could make a move after being impressed by Dembele's performance in the teams' Champions League last-16 tie.
Having been torn apart by Real Madrid in their previous Champion's League game, Juventus would look to bolster its midfield.
Outcome: Plausible
Roma to bid €100m for three Real Madrid players
Roma is prepared to pay €100 million this summer to land the signatures of three Real Madrid players, according to Diario Gol.
Roma is hoping to take advantage of the trio's desire for more playing time, with none of them being able to play consistently for the Los Blancos.
Roma hopes to land midfielders Lucas Vazquez and Mateo Kovacic, as well as defender Nacho Fernandez with this considerable bid.
It is difficult to see Real Madrid willingly let three players go at once. Perhaps one or two from the trio may leave next summer but not all three.
Outcome: Unlikely
Bayern eyes Rakitic for €80 million
Don Balo reports that Bayern Munich is prepared to offer €80 million for Barcelona midfielder Ivan Rakitic.
Rakitic is a starter at the Camp Nou but fears potential and incoming transfers could jeopardise his spot in the first eleven.
It is tough to see this as anything but unrealistic. Bayern currently has a stacked midfielder with the addition of incoming free transfer from Schalke, Leon Goretzka. It does not make sense to include another midfielder in the lineup.
Outcome: Unlikely
Upamecano to Barcelona for €100m
As reported by Telefoot, Barcelona is prepared to bid €100 million for teenage RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano. Upamecano has become a regular starter for Leipzig this season, and the Catalans see him as the successor to 31-year-old Gerard Pique.
Such a transfer may happen but not at the cost of €100m. It seems to be too high a price for a 19-year-old defender
Outcome: Plausible but not €100m
Juventus wants Morata back
Mundo Deportivo reports that Juventus are looking to sign Chelsea striker Alvaro Morata.
Morata appeared for the Old Lady on loan between 2014 and 2016, before moving back to parent club Real Madrid and then to Chelsea last summer for €80 million.
Having three strikers in Higuain, Dybala and Mandzukic, adding a fourth striker does not seem like a realistic scenario. Furthermore, Morata has only just arrived at Chelsea last summer and is unlikely to want to move again so soon.
Outcome: Unlikely
