Man United offered chance to sign another Bayern Munich defender
Manchester United are considering a repeat of last summer's transfer plan as the club weighs up a move for yet another Bayern Munich defender, according to a report from Germany. Twice bitten, not shy Matthijs de Ligt, 26, and Noussair Mazraoui, 27, were signed in a joint raid on the Allianz Arena last year to reunite the pair with Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford, having both previously played for the Dutch manager with Ajax. Their combined fee totalled over £60 million with add-ons – an expensive outlay but a reasonable one given the pair's experience at the highest level in European football relative to their respective ages. Both De Ligt and Mazraoui are primed for important roles this season, despite Ten Hag having been replaced by Ruben Amorim in November, as the former Sporting manager's 3-4-2-1 system employs an extra central defender – a role both players are comfortable fulfilling. De Ligt has primarily operated as the central centre-back in this system (CCB) and the Dutchman offers more athleticism than his competitor for the position, Harry Maguire. Mazraoui, typically a fullback throughout his career, has often played as one of the two centre-backs on the outside, though the Morocco international can also play as a wing-back. But United are reported to be considering a move for another Bayern defender with France international Dayot Upamecano 'on their radar,' according to Christian Falk. Upamecano on the radar Upamecano, 26, is a central defender with outstanding athleticism and high levels of technical ability. He he won multiple trophies with Bayern as well as the World Cup with France in 2018. Speaking to German outlet CFBayern, Falk reveals the 'Red Devils have included the 26-year-old on their list of priorities, as his contract is set to expire next summer.' The Bundesliga expert states Upamecano's agent, Moussa Sissoko, has 'offered his client to Premier League clubs' with 'interest' from United. 'Bayern are pushing hard to reach an agreement with Upamecano over a new deal, but as of now, there has been little or no progress. The negotiations are dragging on for a long time, and it is leaving Bayern frustrated, as surely they do not want another Leroy Sane saga to unfold.' Bayern boss Vincent Kompany is reported to consider Upamecano a key part of his starting eleven alongside new signing Jonathan Tah, so it remains to be seen whether INEOS can prise another defensive jewel from Die Roten to join Amorim's revolution at Old Trafford.

Journalist – Newcastle complete £35m transfer for AC Milan's Malick Thiaw
Newcastle secure £35m Malick Thiaw signing from AC Milan Malick Thiaw set for Premier League move Newcastle United have reached an agreement with AC Milan for the signing of Germany international Malick Thiaw in a deal understood to be worth around £35 million. The 24-year-old defender arrived in the north-east of England on Sunday evening and began his medical examinations on Monday morning, marking the final stages of a transfer pursued over several months. Before departing Italy, Thiaw spoke briefly to reporters, stating: 'Newcastle? I am happy with the choice. I'm ready for the Premier League.' The Magpies' hierarchy had long identified the right-sided centre-back position as a priority, with Thiaw emerging as the leading target following his strong performances in Serie A and Europe. Standing at 6ft 4in, the versatile defender is also capable of playing at right-back or stepping into a defensive midfield role, offering tactical flexibility to Eddie Howe's squad. AC Milan reluctant but Thiaw eager While AC Milan were initially reluctant to part with the defender, Thiaw made it clear he was eager for the opportunity to play in the Premier League. That determination proved decisive, with the Italian club eventually agreeing terms after extensive negotiations. His arrival is expected to provide strong competition for Fabian Schär, as Newcastle seek to solidify their defensive options ahead of a challenging campaign. With Thiaw's signing now in motion, Newcastle have effectively ended their interest in Crystal Palace's Marc Guéhi, who had been monitored closely in recent months. Striker search intensifies Attention now shifts towards reinforcing the attacking department, with the situation surrounding Alexander Isak continuing to cause uncertainty. The Sweden forward has made clear his desire to move to Liverpool, and is currently training away from the main group. Howe has reiterated that he wants only players fully committed to Newcastle, and Isak is not expected to feature in the weekend fixture against Aston Villa. As a result, Newcastle are advancing talks with Brentford over a deal for Yoane Wissa, with a transfer anticipated to be finalised this week. The 28-year-old's adaptability across the front line has made him a valued target. Porto striker monitored Newcastle have also enquired about Porto forward Samu Aghehowa. The 21-year-old enjoyed a prolific campaign last season, registering 27 goals in 45 appearances. However, his reported €100m (£86.6m) release clause presents a significant obstacle, with Newcastle weighing whether to make a formal bid. The club's activity in both defensive and attacking markets underlines a determination to strengthen key areas, ensuring squad depth and competition across all positions ahead of a busy season domestically and in Europe.
