Vinicius Jr. Targeted by PSG, Chelsea; Palmer Receives Alarming Saudi Offer as Man Utd Pursues Valverde
PARIS & LONDON – Real madrid winger Vinicius Jr. is the subject of a potential bid from Paris Saint-Germain, while Chelsea are also monitoring the Brazilian international, according to Fichajes.net. Separately, Cole Palmer, Chelsea’s recent signing, has reportedly received a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia, a growth that has surprised the club. Meanwhile, Manchester United have made a bid for Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde, though it was quickly rejected.
These developments signal a potentially volatile January transfer window as clubs assess their squads and opportunities arise. Vinicius Jr.’s situation stems from concerns over his role at Real Madrid, while Palmer’s sudden Saudi interest highlights the growing financial power of the Saudi Pro League. Manchester United’s pursuit of Valverde underscores their ongoing efforts to strengthen their midfield.
Brahim Díaz, also at real Madrid, is reportedly seeking an exit in January due to a lack of playing time under Xabi Alonso. E-Notícies reports that Díaz is unwilling to accept a limited role and will explore other options.
In Barcelona, emerging talent Dro Fernández intends to renew his contract with the club, dismissing interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Paris Saint-Germain, as reported by TBR Football.
Sevilla are attempting to secure Odysseas vlachodimos’s loan move from Newcastle United with a permanent deal valued at just €5 million (£4.4 million, $5.9 million), despite Newcastle having paid £20 million (€22.9 million,$26.9 million) for the goalkeeper earlier in 2024, according to Estadio Deportivo. Vlachodimos is pushing for the move to be accepted.
