Football – Transfers: Gnabry, Marseille, Kane and Real Madrid: the 6 mercatos info for this Thursday, May 26
Real turn to Gnabry
After seeing Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappé pass under their noses by choosing Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid is logically looking for other alternatives to strengthen offensively. And according to the German daily Bild, the White House would now set its sights on… Serge Gnabry. At the end of the contract in June 2023, the all-purpose winger from Bayern Munich comes out of a new full season with 17 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. But his salary expectations would be above what the Bavarians want to offer him.
Our opinion: Serge Gnabry would be a very good weapon on the right wing of Real.

Arsenal want Saliba back
Invited to deliver on the airwaves of RMC, Pablo Longoria has long referred to the William Saliba case. And the least we can say is that he was won over by the 21-year-old defender, on loan from Arsenal. But Mikel Arteta is counting on him next season. A choice that the Marseille leader respects: “Everyone knows the value of Saliba. In football, everything is a question of respect and balance. We respect his club, we have to thank Arsenal, a friendly club that has helped us a lot”.
Our opinion: Arsenal are right to recover their young French international.

A De Jong-Bernardo Silva swap?
According to Mundo Deportivo, a win-win deal could be in preparation between FC Barcelona and Manchester City. Wanting to strengthen their offensive lines, the Catalan leaders would lose Frenkie De Jong, but not at any price. The former Ajax, who arrived in 2019 and who seems to be finding good marks under Xavi, could be sent to the Premier League in an exchange with Bernardo Silva (27). Problem: the Portuguese, under contract until 2025, has a much higher market value than the 25-year-old Dutch midfielder.
Our opinion: the shortfall would be too great for Pep Guardiola, who adores Silva.

For Kane, Conte would have changed everything
Arrived at the point of embarking on a strike not so long ago to leave Tottenham and join Manchester City, Harry Kane would have completely changed his mind. And, according to the London Evening Standard, this is due to only one man: Antonio Conte. Arrived on the Spurs bench last November, the Italian coach would have seduced the captain of England through its management methods.
Our opinion: Haaland’s arrival at City has definitely reshuffled the cards
According to RMC SportAurélien Tchouaméni would have his future sealed with Real Madrid. While a five-year contract for a fixed price of €80m has reportedly been agreed to by all parties involved, nothing has been officially signed yet. The reason ? Paul Mitchell, the sporting director of AS Monaco, would take advantage of the offensives of Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool to try to raise the stakes.
Our opinion: Monaco is in a strong position and has no interest in rushing.
Tchouaméni at Real, the ideal reinforcement?
Dembele scrutinized by several clubs
At the end of the contract at the end of next season, Moussa Dembélé seems to be attracting the greed of many European clubs. Author of a superb end to the season with Olympique Lyonnais (nine goals in the last seven days of Ligue 1), his fibula injury seems officially behind him. Manchester United, Arsenal, Tottenham, Sevilla and several Serie A clubs have shown interest.
Our opinion: Dembélé is coming back strong and is used to transfer rumours, he will make the right decision.
