With the summer window now closed in Europe and Saudi Arabia, Premier League clubs are pivoting to January. Arsenal have confirmed academy striker Mylo Bernard, and Manchester United have signed Liverpool prospect Isaac Konde.
The Gunners are expected to revisit January moves for Julian Alvarez and Eli Junior Kroupi, and are also credited with interest in Brentford forward Kevin Schade. Chelsea, who signed Morgan Rogers but failed to replace Enzo Fernandez, are again linked with Alex Scott and Atletico Madrid’s €100m-rated Pablo Barrios.
United, having missed out on Lewis Hall, could return with a fresh approach and have also been linked with Newcastle team-mate Malick Thiaw. A renewed move for Louis Page has likewise been mooted.
Richarlison’s options are narrowing with windows in Türkiye and Saudi Arabia shut, and he has been left off Spurs’ Premier League list for Wilson Odobert and Xavi Simons. Possible routes include a short-term loan back to a Serie A club in Brazil, a switch to Russia or Mexico before their deadlines, or minutes with the Under-21s.
A Benfica reunion under Marco Silva appears unlikely despite the Portuguese window running until September 15, with Jhon Duran among other attacking choices. Vasco da Gama fans have launched a push to sign the Brazil international.
Karim Benzema is a free agent and could draw Premier League interest, while teams in Saudi Arabia and Türkiye are also tracking him, talkSPORT claims. Anthony Martial has rejected two Ligue 1 offers and is waiting for the right project, reports Foot Mercato.
Liverpool could yet rival Chelsea for Lamine Camara after Monaco pulled the plug late, and both clubs scouted him against Paris Saint-Germain, says TEAMtalk. Manchester United and Liverpool have also made contact over Mateus Mane, according to Ekrem Konur.
