Rumor: Javi Martinez – Bayern Munich to Rennes
Although much has been said about the possible departure of one of Bayern Munich’s central midfielders, it turns out that Thiago is the only one who needs to leave Bavaria.
Martinez, 31, has only 10 games this season and the club’s general manager, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, will not oppose his departure. “We know you’d like to leave the club with a proper offer,” Rummenigge told Spanish channel AZ.
Rumor: Patrik Schick – Rome at RB Leipzig
RB Leipzig needs to extend the transfer of Czech striker Patrik Schick to Roma, but has not yet reached an agreement with the Italian team. “It’s true that we struggled to find a solution with Roma,” admits sports director Markus Krosche before the Champions League quarter-finals against Atletico Madrid.
Since Timo Werner’s departure to Chelsea, RB has been in place of a striker. Milot Rashica of Werder Bremen would be a main target.
Hertha Berlin remains the favourite for the signing of Schalke midfielder Weston Mckennie, but still the value of the Royal Blues of 25 million euros ($29.4 million) is too high.
Hertha’s sporting director Michael Preetz, who has already signed goalkeeper Alexander Schwolow (from Freiburg) and side deyovaisio Zeefuik (from Groningen), needs payment of 20 million euros.
Rumor: Jadon Sancho – Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United
Jadon Sancho boarded Borussia Dortmund’s flight to the educational camp in Switzerland on Monday morning, the German club’s internal deadline for an overdue transfer.
However, reports in England recommend that Manchester United has seen the 10 August deadline as “artificial” and that the record-breaking English champions are still certain to have signed up to the extreme, but not for the 120 million euros that BVB asks for.
German media report that Sancho has been paid to remain in Dortmund, raising his salary from 6 million euros a year, with Dortmund still sure to collect next summer before the player’s contract expires in 2022.
But the hypothesis remains that they would still settle for 120 million euros this summer if United made cash until October.
Rumor: Weston McKennie – Schalke to Hertha
American Weston McKennie of Schalke, from France, England and Germany, is reportedly interested, and Hertha Berlin is leading the way, according to reports in Germany.
Backed by investor Lars Windhorst, Berliners are able to pay the Schalke’s requested value of 25 million euros ($29 million) and meet McKennie’s wage demands, figures that would have surprised southampton of the Premier League even.
Reports in France recommend that the Ligue 1 team, Monaco, also be interested in the 21-year-old player, but the Principality club has still made an offer.
Rumor: Jadon Sancho – Borussia Dortmund to Manchester United
The saga of summer goes on and on. German media report that Manchester United has agreed non-public terms with Jadon Sancho, but is willing to pay the 120 million euros ($141 million) that Borussia Dortmund is asking for for the English teenager, especially given the on-the existing crisis.
Dortmund continue to insist that he must stay with Sancho, which has a contract until 2022, and is willing to offer him a pay rise. But they also know that their price will drop next summer and will have to remain a dissatisfied player.
Sancho was spotted with his friends in London this weekend, a striker at Dortmund’s educational camp in Switzerland, which begins on Monday.
Rumor: Tahith Chong – Manchester United at Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen sporting director Frank Baumann has shown that the Bundesliga team has been in “good conversations” with Manchester United about an imaginable two-year loan for young Dutchman Tahith Chong.
The 20-year-old, who played 16 first-team games for United, and added the Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain last season, did not point to a contract extension until March, but it is a more normal playing time.
Bremen sees the fast end as a possible replacement for Milot Rashica.
Rumor: Kai Havertz – Bayer Leverkusen to Chelsea

Rumor: Ron-Robert Zieler – Hannover in Cologne

Agreement reached: Sarpreet Singh – Bayern Munich in Nuremberg
Having signed goalkeeper Christian Frachtl, Nuremberg has hired the young Bayern on loan from Sarpreet Singh. The New Zealand international, who has declared a preference to “take the next step” with Der Club, scored seven goals in 22 games with Bayern’s time team in the 3rd department last season.
