Rayan attracting Milan interest after Vasco da Gama exploits
Milan are still seeking new strikers and Sky Sport Italia report they could go for Vasco da Gama talent Rayan if Samuel Chukwueze leaves first. The Rossoneri are transforming their attack this summer to suit the ideas of new coach Max Allegri, but the process is not over yet. Even if Victor Boniface arrives from Bayer Leverkusen on loan with option to buy for €30-32m, as seems practically certain, then they are also looking at other candidates. Rayan potential reinforcement for Milan SAO PAULO, BRAZIL – JUNE 12: Rayan of Vasco da Gama celebrates after scoring the team´s first goal during the Brasileirao 2025 match between Sao Paulo and Vasco da Gama at MorumBIS on June 12, 2025 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. (Photo by) Sky Sport Italia transfer pundit Gianluca Di Marzio claims Milan are keeping a close eye on 19-year-old Vasco da Gama sensation Rayan. The teenager can play on the right, left, or as a centre-forward in a trident attack. A Brazil Under-20 talent with two goals in 10 caps, his contract with Vasco da Gama only runs to December 2026. The report makes clear that there are no firm negotiations yet, but rather the Rossoneri are keeping an eye on him, ready to swoop in case Chukwueze leaves. They already parted with Noah Okafor, who completes his €21m including add-ons move to Leeds United this week.

Bayern Munich protect future interest as starlet closes in on PSV move
Bayern Munich protect future interest as starlet closes in on PSV move originally appeared on The Sporting News Bayern Munich have now allowed their 12th player to leave the club this summer as fans believe this will trigger new signings before the transfer window closes in September. The Bavarians are extremely short on squad depth and now Germany U21 international Paul Wanner is close to completing a move to Eredivisie outfit PSV Eindhoven as per Sky Sports' Florian Plettenberg. PSV have agreed a permanent deal for Wanner worth €15 million ($17.4m) + add-ons as he is all set to undergo medical for the Dutch outfit in the next couple of days. The 19-year-old has attracted a lot of interest from clubs all around Europe including Bundesliga outfit Borussia Monchengladbach, who were in with a loan interest. However, Bayern Munich snubbed his move to Monchengladbach as they reached a permanent switch agreement with PSV with a reported buy-back clause in place. Wanner is currently recovering from a minor ligament injury and that could be a small hindrance in this deal but shouldn't be a major concern for PSV. 📲Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp Why Wanner decided to leave Bayern Munich this summer? Wanner was not in Vincent Kompany's direct plans despite injury to Jamal Musiala and Bayern Munich's failed push to sign Florian Wirtz and Nick Woltemade this summer. The 19-year-old attacking-midfielder has failed to convince the club hierarchy that he belongs to this level despite his impressive performances for Heidenheim last season. The teenager has been on loan for the last couple of seasons first at Elversberg followed by last season's loan spell at Heidenheim. Wanner featured in 29 Bundesliga matches last season and finished with three goals and two assists. he was lauded for exceptional passing range, creativity, vision and ability to use space near the final third. He was also a part of the Germany U21 team that reached the Euros U21 final in Slovakia back in June. They unfortunately lost the title clash against England. A move to PSV could help both parties as he would be featuring in a fast-paced league suited to his style of play. On the other hand, his permanent switch frees up some more funds for the Bayern bosses to make a couple of more signings filling the holes in the current roster ahead of a big 2025/26 campaign.

Julián Alvarez's entourage believe he ‘made a mistake' joining Atlético Madrid
Something of a bombshell update on the situation surrounding Atlético Madrid star Julián Alvarez at present has come to the fore on Wednesday. This comes amid claims that those closest to the Argentine international are of the opinion that he made the wrong call in penning terms at the Metropolitano. Frontman Alvarez of course made the move to Atlético in the summer of 2024, after the Rojiblancos agreed to meet the hefty valuation laid out by Manchester City for their attacking star. The 25-year-old went on to enjoy an impressive debut campaign in Rojiblancos colours, to the tune of 29 goals and eight assists across all competitions. Atlético, however, endured a largely underwhelming season as a collective. And with Diego Simeone's troops fresh off an opening day La Liga defeat this past weekend, too, it would appear that cracks are beginning to appear behind the scenes in Alvarez's representative group. As per a report from journalist Matias Palacios, speaking during an appearance on El Chiringuito TV: 'Julián Alvarez's entourage believes he made a mistake by signing with Cholo's team.'
