Paolo Banchero (Orlando Magic)
After injury against New York Knicks, ahead of home game vs Brooklyn Nets

From his arrival in summer 2021 onward

Moises Caicedo (Chelsea)
Ongoing 2025–26 season

Current season, ahead of the January transfer window

Barcelona are tracking Virgili after selling him to Mallorca for ~€3.5m with re-sign and sell-on clauses. He logged an assist on return from the U-20 World Cup.

Stuttgart price Angelo Stiller at €50m. United scan midfield market

Angelo Stiller (Stuttgart)
October 2025

Stuttgart set €50m for Stiller despite a €40m clause they can neutralise. United’s January targets include Morten Hjulmand, Adam Wharton, Carlos Baleba, Jobe Bellingham, and Victor Froholdt.
United weigh progressive passers (Wharton) versus ball-winners (Hjulmand/Baleba). Sporting links may soften Hjulmand’s number, but January premiums, registration slots, and FFP headroom will dictate sequencing with potential outgoings.
