Paqueta-Manchester City, the return?
Did you like the first summer negotiations between West Ham and Manchester City regarding Lucas Paqueta? You will love the second opus! Brazilian media UOL claims that the European champion wants to resume negotiations with the Hammers. An agreement in principle was reached last summer, for a sum of around 80 million pounds, but the English Federation’s investigation into Paqueta’s sports betting caused the transfer to fall through.
Our opinion: A good option to replace Kevin De Bruyne.

Chelsea follows ( once more) a Brazilian crack
During an interview for ESPN Brasil, Gabriel Moscardo, Corinthians nugget, confirmed that Chelsea did seek to recruit him: “I received an offer from Chelsea a few months ago. I spoke a lot with my agent and my parents, and they told me to wait until the end of the season before deciding,” said the 18-year-old midfielder, also followed by Arsenal, Barcelona and Liverpool.
Our opinion: But what for?
Italy loves Thiago Alcantara
On the sidelines due to a hip injury since April, Thiago Alcantara is at the end of his contract at Liverpool. He will be free to engage with the training of his choice in January. And among the contenders for his signature, two Italian clubs: Juventus and Inter Milan have expressed their interest in the 32-year-old Spanish international according to The Daily Mail.
Our opinion: Little spared from injuries since 2022, Thiago remains a formidable footballer.
MU will downsize at Christmas
Manchester United intends to use the winter transfer window to release bulky elements of its workforce. Thus, Antony, Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial might well pack their bags following Christmas, as The Sun informs us.
Our opinion: A diet following the holidays doesn’t hurt anyone.
“There is something that is vitiated, rotten, at Manchester United”
Chicharito is in high demand
As his adventure at Los Angeles Galaxy draws to a close, Javier “Chicharito” Hernandez is looking for a new challenge. The Mexican, currently injured in the knee, said he had several contacts in Europe, Mexico, Saudi Arabia and also in MLS. “I came back stronger, more resilient and eager to continue having fun,” said the Manchester United striker.
Our opinion: At 35, Chicharito can take one last big check in the Gulf.
Juventus extends Fagioli
Suspended seven months in the sports betting affair, Nicolo Fagioli has extended his contract with Juventus. The Italian international midfielder is linked to the Bianconeri until 2028. His salary has also been increased.
Our opinion: Very classy gesture on the part of the Old Lady, who supports her player.
Ruben Neves back in England?
A few months following his departure for Saudi Arabia, Ruben Neves might return to the Premier League. Eddie Howe, the coach of Newcastle, owned by the Saudi public investment fund, has positioned himself for the recruitment of the Portuguese midfielder. “He’s a player we liked when he played at Wolverhampton. I’m open to signings if they’re good and make our team better,” he said at a press conference. Neves was the star of the Wolves for six seasons.
Our opinion: Given the links between Newcastle and Saudi Arabia, this movement might cause discussion.
