DAZN Transfer by Fabrizio Romano: Bayern interested in Leao, Barça no longer want Ter Stegen, and Garnacho on his way out

Until the 10th, Fabrizio Romano is covering transfer rumors ahead of the Club World Cup. A show is to follow daily on DAZN.

Fabrizio Romano, as every evening, returned to the trends and latest updates from the transfer market. This new episode features Garnacho's expected departure, Bayern’s interest in Leao, and the situation of Ter Stegen at FC Barcelona.

The current trend for Victor Osimhen is to sign with Al-Hilal. The Saudi club has reached an agreement of €75M with Napoli and is now awaiting the player's decision. The next few hours will be crucial.

The trend for Cristiano Ronaldo is to stay at Al-Nassr. As explained in a press conference, he received offers for the Club World Cup but will not play in it. Fabrizio Romano explained that the main option was Al-Hilal. It didn’t happen, notably because Al-Hilal changed coaches with Simone Inzaghi’s arrival, and the club also had other players on its list. The current trend for Cristiano Ronaldo is now to extend his contract with Al-Nassr.

Chiesa could bounce back in Serie A

Chelsea offered €35M to Dortmund for Jamie Bynoe-Gittens. Not enough to convince the club to let go of the player. He, for his part, accepted a seven-year contract and said yes to the club.

Milos Kerkez is very close to signing with Liverpool. After Jeremie Frimpong, he should join the club alongside Florian Wirtz. New contacts are expected with Leverkusen tomorrow.

Here’s what Liverpool’s XI is expected to look like:

• Luis Diaz
• Wirtz - Szoboszlai - Salah
• Mac Allister - Gravenberch
• Kerkez - Van Dijk - Konaté - Frimpong
• Alisson

Although Federico Chiesa is happy at Liverpool, the player wants to play more regularly. He is seriously considering a return to Serie A. Napoli and Milan are interested, and the Italian international is thinking about it.

Kepa is very close to Chelsea. The club has an agreement with the player, who should sign for around £5 million.

Chelsea, on the other hand, want to sign Mike Maignan. The next 24-48 hours will be crucial. If Milan accepts Chelsea’s conditions, he could sign with the English club, but the transfer remains difficult. Fabrizio Romano estimates the chances at 45%.

Tino Livramento is very far from Manchester City. Newcastle are rejecting the club’s approaches, especially since the team will be playing in the Champions League.

Rafael Leao is on his way out. Bayern want to sign the winger; he is highly appreciated by the club and by Vincent Kompany. But Milan have not yet received any official offer from Bayern.

Garnacho on the way out

Inter are interested in Rasmus Hojlund. He is one of the players the club wants. The Italian club has spoken with Manchester United, and the player is open.

Viktor Gyökeres has a 40% chance of signing with Arsenal and a 40% chance of signing with Liverpool. Benjamin Sesko remains Arsenal’s priority. Manchester United also want to sign the striker, who is interested in the club despite the absence of Champions League football next season. It remains a difficult transfer to complete, according to Fabrizio Romano.

FC Barcelona’s future will be without Marc-André ter Stegen. FC Barcelona have informed him of the situation and that there is no place for him. The question now is the player's position, as he is happy at the club and wants to stay.

Alejandro Garnacho is 100% leaving Manchester United. A decision made by both sides after a meeting. Erik ten Hag’s Bayer Leverkusen wants to sign him. Napoli are also closely monitoring him, while other Premier League clubs have approached him. The current trend is that he stays.
