Despite a £125 million buyout option in his current contract, the Spain midfielder is believed to be available for between £35 and £40 million. Attletico is reported to be ready to accept a lesser offer in order to alleviate financial difficulties created by the epidemic.

Manchester United are reportedly in pole position to acquire Saul in an effort to strengthen their squad, which has already seen the arrival of Jadon Sancho and the near-completion of the Raphael Varane transfer.

Liverpool are seeking to replace the hole left by Georginio Wijnaldum, who departed on a free transfer last month when his contract expired. The midfielder was a vital member of the team that won the Champions League and Premier League, but the two sides were unable to reach an agreement, and the Netherlands international left for Paris Saint-Germain.

GOSSIP ON PAPER

– According to Calciomercato, Wolves are interested in signing Aaron Ramsey, with Juventus ready to sell the midfielder.

– If Lautaro Martinez leaves this transfer window, Internazionale have identified Joaquin Correa as a possible replacement.

Martinez seems to be on the verge of leaving the Nezazzuri, with rumours claiming Arsenal is interested in signing him.

– According to Calciomercato, new Bordeaux manager Vladimir Petkovic is interested in signing Switzerland international Ricardo Rodriguez. This summer, the two collaborated at Euro 2020, with Petkovic leading the squad to a quarterfinal defeat on penalties to Spain.

– According to the Mirror, West Ham United and Everton have been linked with a deal for Flamengo striker Gabriel Barbosa. Since joining Flamengo from Inter Milan in January 2020, the 24-year-old Brazilian has made an impression.

The winger is said to be out of Mikel Arteta’s immediate plans at the Emirates, while a loan move to Palace would free up funds for incoming manager Viera to add a striker to his team.
