Why Bailey's move may help Roma sign traumatised Sancho
One question about Sancho. How are Roma still linked with the Manchester United outcast if he had rejected the Manchester United offer? The truth is that, as we already reported, Sancho has put talks on hold and Roma have not yet given up.
Still not over between Sancho and Roma

Gian Piero Gasperini's side have not sounded out any other attacking midfielder as the Giallorossi boss first wants to bring to an end negotiations with Sancho, one way or another.

Sancho is traumatised by Manchester United's decision to show him the exit door, but there's a total agreement between Roma and Manchester United and, as far as I know, the Serie A side have also shaken hands over agent fees.

In the meantime, Roma have welcomed Bailey, which could help the Giallorossi in the Sancho deal as the two players are close friends and spent holidays together this summer.

Report – Rayo Vallecano To Pull Out Of Talks For Inter Milan & Argentina Defender
Problems keep piling up for Inter Milan, with Rayo Vallecano set to withdraw from talks to sign Tomas Palacios. According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Spaniards are drifting away, leaving Inter with fewer options to offload their flop. Despite emerging as the strongest contenders to sign the 22-year-old, Rayo Vallecano are having second thoughts. Indeed, they are reportedly ready to call off their pursuit of Tomas Palacios, giving Inter another reason for concern. Rayo Vallecano Set to Withdraw from Talks for Inter Milan Bust Tomas Palacios MONZA, ITALY – MARCH 02: Nikola Vlasic of Torino is challenged by Tomas Palacios of Monza during the Serie A match between Monza and Torino at U-Power Stadium on March 02, 2025 in Monza, Italy. (Photo by) As if missing out on Giovanni Leoni's signature wasn't troubling enough, Inter cannot catch a break on the outgoing market. Leoni has joined Liverpool for a reported fee of €35 million despite Inter's long-standing interest in his services. However, that's the least of Inter's problems. Indeed, the San Siro giants aim to offload Palacios, whom they signed from Independiente Rivadavia last summer. Yet, like in the case of Kristjan Asllani, they cannot find an agreement with potential suitors, leaving the player's future uncertain.

England international agrees to join Liverpool
Liverpool are facing a contract problem with . The French defender is out of contract in 2026 and if no agreement over a new deal is reached then he will be leaving on a free next summer. That would be a bitter blow for sporting director Richard Hughes - with the Reds having invested around £35m in Konate back in 2021. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! The 26-year-old joined from RB Leipzig but it was only last season that he truly emerged as a world-class talent alongside Virgil van Dijk. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range With so much uncertainty over Konate - who has been mentioned as a potential sale this summer if no contract is signed - it's no wonder Liverpool are considering alternatives. Liverpool linked with Marc Guehi Although the club signed Giovanni Leoni for £26m from Parma last week, it remains to be seen just how much football the 18-year-old gets through in his rookie season. Accordingly, senior options have been discussed and Marc Guehi looks the ideal candidate in that respect. Like Konate, the Crystal Palace captain is out of contract in 2026 and he too could be departing on a free. Of course Palace are against that idea and if a team comes up with the asking price during this transfer window - said to be £40m - then he too would be on his way. Guehi pledges to join ONLY Liverpool Liverpool seem content to wait although expect them to strike if they get the idea that a deal is in reach before the end of the window. Now according to the Athletic, the Reds have got one less thing to worry about. That's because Guehi has assured the Reds that it's Anfield or nothing - and that he is currently NOT interested in a move elsewhere. The 25-year-old England international has earmarked a move ONLY to the Premier League champions. © IMAGO - Marc Guehi Liverpool Guehi has eyes only for Liverpool "If he leaves Palace now, Guehi only has eyes for Liverpool, who believe they already possess four elite central defenders, so are not expected to seek an alternative if they fail to land the 25-year-old,' the report reads. This stance would appear to tally with other reports concerning the former Chelsea player. Liverpool can be optimistic of landing Guehi for around £40m this summer or else bringing him in on a free in 2026. He may well be a replacement for Konate in time - should the Frenchman fail to renew his deal - but having lost Jarell Quansah and given Joe Gomez's injury record, Arne Slot could do a lot worse than add centre-back depth.
