Man Utd, Newcastle See Liverpool Transfer Target as Backup Plan Amid Limited PSG Minutes | OneFootball

Gonçalo Ramos’ future at PSG has been up in the air all summer, fueling plenty of transfer talk around the Portuguese striker. Despite continued interest from the Premier League, the latest signs point toward him staying in Paris.

Ramos finished the 2024-25 season with 19 goals and six assists in 46 appearances. Whether that’s enough to lock down a regular starting spot at PSG remains unclear, but the club is reportedly keen to keep him amid the speculation.

Back in May, CaughtOffside reported that interest in the 24-year-old was growing, with Newcastle United, Aston Villa, Napoli, and Juventus all monitoring his situation. Arsenal and Manchester United are also in the market for attacking reinforcements this summer.

Journalist Graeme Bailey previously noted that Manchester United had the green light to pursue Ramos, with PSG open to a potential sale. The striker has also reportedly held discussions with clubs across Europe and in Saudi Arabia.

On Tuesday, CaughtOffside reported, citing sources, that Ramos’ limited playing time at PSG has drawn interest from several Premier League and Serie A clubs, who see an opportunity to land a proven goal scorer.

According to the report, Newcastle United, Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Liverpool are all weighing up potential summer moves. Liverpool, in particular, are said to be considering Ramos as a long-term addition. Manchester United are also exploring forward options and reportedly view Ramos as a backup plan if their top striker targets fall through.

The Reds are currently focused on signing Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, but if that pursuit doesn’t pan out, Ramos could emerge as a serious option. United, meanwhile, have Benjamin Šeško as their primary target, with Ramos still under consideration as an alternative.
