TRENDING RUMORS
– Contrary to reports, Real Madrid are not considering a loan move for striker Endrick this month, reports Fabrizio Romano. Despite struggling for regular first-team minutes this season, the 18-year-old is expected to remain at Santiago Bernabéu until the end of the campaign. According to Romano, the current plan is for Endrick to remain a part of the Real Madrid squad — to “develop and grow” — under head coach Carlo Ancelotti. Endrick has scored four goals in 18 matches in all competitions this season since joining from Palmeiras last summer.
– Victor Boniface is on the radar of several Saudi Pro League clubs, Florian Plettenberg has reported. The Nigerian striker recently extended his contract to 2029 at Bayer Leverkusen, but that seemingly hasn’t dissuaded some Saudi clubs. However, the Bundesliga champions would demand at least €50 million from any interested parties if a deal were to happen. The 24-year-old has scored an impressive 20 goals in 33 Bundesliga games for the reigning Bundesliga champions, having joined in the summer of 2023 from Union St.-Gilloise.
– Brighton & Hove Albion and Aston Villa are both showing interest in South Korean sensation Yoon Do-Yong, the Daily Mirror reports. The 18-year-old, who plays for Daejeon Hana Citizen, contributed four goals and six assists last season. While Brighton are currently “leading the charge” for Yun’s signature, the winger’s representatives were at Villa’s Bodymoor Health training ground for discussions earlier this week. Yun is a South Korean Under-20 international with four caps and two goals to his name.
Manchester City are exploring the possibility of signing Bayern Munich full-back Joshua Kimmich this month, reports Football Insider. The Premier League champions have already sealed January deals for Omar Marmoush, Vitor Reis and Abdukodir Khusanov, but their winter business might have concluded just yet. The 29-year-old is said to be taking some time to decide where his future lies, having entered the final six months of his current Bayern contract. The Germany international could be signed by City to help cover for the injured Rodri in midfield — who will likely miss the rest of the season.
– EFL Championship club Luton Town are in advanced talks to sign St. Gallen forward Willem Geubbels on loan, reports Footmercato. While the likes of Norwich City and West Bromwich Albion are eyeing a move for the 23-year-old in the summer, Luton are confident they can secure a loan agreement before the end of the month. Geubbels, who previously played for Lyon and AS Monaco, has scored six goals in 13 league games this season.
