Gasperini wants Matt O'Riley since Atalanta days

Gian Piero Gasperini has asked Roma to try and pursue Brighton midfielder Matt O'Riley. The Dane is one of Gasperini's favorite players since his days at Celtic. In fact, the Roma manager was very close to recruiting him to Atalanta last year but ultimately Brighton overtook la Dea in the race for O'Riley. Advertisement According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Roma have shown interest in the Danish talent in recent weeks, though there is a lot of competition involved. O'Riley could be the ideal reinforcement for the midfield, capable of giving balance and quality to the Giallorossi. His current pricetag is of around 20 million euros.

Football transfer rumours: Liverpool to spend £100m on PSG's Bradley Barcola?

It is a wingers special for today's tittle-tattle. Starting with Liverpool's willingness to splash £100m on Paris Saint-Germain's Bradley Barcola. Arne Slot has already signed Jeremie Frimpong and is set to add creativity in the form of Florian Wirtz. Naturally, there is not a bottomless pit of cash at Anfield, so they would be open to selling Luis Díaz, Diogo Jota and Darwin Núñez to fund the spending. After it was confirmed that Jadon Sancho will not be joining Chelsea permanently, his next move is a hot topic of conversation. Manchester United will be quite eager to earn some cash in exchange for the winger, so the prospect of Aston Villa, Newcastle and Tottenham are considering a potential move for the 25-year-old.

On the upside, he does get a few extra weeks off compared to his current teammates, giving him time to send his CV out to clubs. Newcastle and Everton could offer Grealish a route away from the City bench. Nico Williams is another who likes to get chalk on his boots. Clubs queueing up to sign him. Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Chelsea are all eager but Athletic Club want to tie the Spain international down to a new deal to keep him at San Mamés. Bayern seem to be the most eager and the European champion might have given his representatives a nudge and a wink to have a chat with the recently-crowned Bundesliga winners. Supposedly plenty of teams are interested the Sporting striker Viktor Gyökeres but no one is yet to make an offer for him, according to club president Frederico Varandas. 'I can guarantee that Viktor Gyökeres will not leave for €60m plus €10m because I never promised that,' Varandas said. 'To this day Sporting has not had an offer for Gyökeres – neither today nor last season.' Advertisement It looks like Manchester City have stolen a march of European rivals to sign Rosenborg teenager Sverre Nypan. The Norwegian was a target for any major club with a pulse, Arsenal and Aston Villa among those batting their eyelids in his direction. Nypan, however, has plumped for the Etihad Stadium as the location to progress his career alongside compatriot Erling Haaland. Trevoh Chalobah is on Napoli's shopping list. The Chelsea defender started last season on loan at Crystal Palace before being called back by Enzo Maresca to boost his centre-back options. Despite starting the triumphant Conference League final and being called up to Thomas Tuchel's latest England squad, Chalobah's future at Stamford Bridge is less than certain and a move to the Serie A champions might be tempting. Djordje Petrovic was not keen on a Club World Cup sojourn to play backup in the Chelsea goalkeeping department, so instead asked to be left out to allow him to work out for what the future holds for him. Leeds could be the answer swirling around the crystal ball. If anyone wants an experienced full-back, then Vladimir Coufal is looking for a new club after his West Ham contract expired. Everton, Wolves and Fulham are those pondering offering him a new home. Sunderland are waiting for offers for midfielder Nectarios Triantis. The Premier League newcomers want around £1.5m in exchange for his services after an impressive season on loan at Hibernian. Fortuna Düsseldorf and MLS clubs are keen on the player who is currently debating where his international future lies, with Australia and Greece vying for his qualities.
