March 2026

Barcelona remain interested in Julian Alvarez as a long-term attacking option, but reports say the club have fixed a strict maximum valuation and will not chase the deal at any price. Atletico Madrid, however, continue to insist the forward is not leaving. A fresh report said Barcelona’s ceiling sits at around €70 million, while a separate recent report quoted Atletico director Mateu Alemany dismissing exit talk and stressing Alvarez is happy and expected to stay. That gap in valuation makes any deal difficult unless one side changes position.

Inter are again being linked with Andrey Santos as part of a wider summer rebuild that could reshape their midfield and slightly alter their long-used tactical structure. The Chelsea midfielder remains highly appreciated in Milan even after previous talks failed to produce a deal. Reports say Inter have held multiple meetings in the past with intermediaries close to Santos, but Chelsea previously blocked an exit because they viewed him as part of the first-team picture. The renewed interest fits Inter’s plan to add more physicality in midfield and greater unpredictability further forward.

The Newcastle midfielder is now being treated as a leading target, with his Premier League pedigree and profile seen as a strong fit for United’s planned midfield rebuild.

Sandro Tonali is also being monitored, but Guimaraes currently appears to be the more advanced option in United’s internal planning

Ricardo Pepi’s proposed move to Fulham has stalled after PSV and the Premier League club failed to agree on final terms. The transfer was close enough for Pepi to undergo a medical, but one unresolved detail prevented the deal from being completed. The main dispute concerned when responsibility for the player would officially transfer, either immediately or after the World Cup. Earnie Stewart said both clubs moved closer in negotiations but stayed too far apart in the end, while leaving open the possibility of fresh talks later.

Newcastle are stepping up plans to sign a new striker after struggling to replace Alexander Isak. Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap have emerged as the leading options, with the club viewing both Chelsea forwards as realistic alternatives rather than attempting to sign both. Newcastle’s lack of trust in current options was reflected by using Anthony Gordon and Will Osula centrally against Barcelona. Jackson and Delap are both seen as attainable because neither has fully secured a long-term role at Chelsea, while the Magpies continue assessing which profile best fits their rebuild.

The Manchester City midfielder has emerged as one of several experienced names under review in Turin.

Enzo Fernandez
March 2026

Enzo Fernandez has fuelled fresh uncertainty over his Chelsea future after admitting he does not know where he will be next season. Chelsea are not actively looking to sell, but reports say any deal would require at least a British-record fee. Fernandez made the remark after Chelsea’s 8-2 aggregate loss to Paris Saint-Germain. Reports linked his preference to Real Madrid if an exit becomes real, while Chelsea’s long contract leverage means only a very small group of clubs could realistically afford him.
