Major Transfers and Rumors in the 2025 Summer Window

The summer transfer window of 2025 is in full swing, with top European clubs making strategic moves to strengthen their squads. Here’s a detailed look at the key transfers and rumors shaping the football landscape.

Juventus Eyeing Sancho and Rashford

Juventus are reportedly interested in acquiring both Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford from Manchester United. However, financial constraints and the players' high wages pose significant challenges. Sancho, with a year left on his contract, may only move on a loan deal, while Rashford’s long-term commitment to United makes a permanent transfer unlikely.

Liverpool’s Stance on Luis Díaz

Liverpool have firmly stated that Luis Díaz is not for sale this summer, despite interest from Bayern Munich and Barcelona. The Colombian winger was pivotal in Liverpool’s Premier League triumph last season. However, with two years remaining on his contract and no progress on a new deal, the situation remains fluid.

João Félix’s Future at Chelsea

João Félix’s future at Chelsea is uncertain. With a residual transfer value of £36m and high wages, a permanent move seems improbable. A loan deal appears to be the most viable solution, with Chelsea likely covering a portion of his wages.

Christian Pulisic and Saudi Interest

AC Milan’s Christian Pulisic is on the radar of Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr. Despite the interest, Milan have yet to receive a formal offer. Pulisic has been impressive since joining from Chelsea in 2023, and his contract runs for another two years.

Manchester City’s Transfer Strategy

Manchester City are focused on retaining key players like Nico González, despite limited playing time. The club is also managing interest in young left-back Nico O’Reilly and midfielder James McAtee, who could command a significant fee.

Real Madrid’s Remaining Needs

Real Madrid have been active in the transfer market but still need reinforcements in central midfield. Potential departures of Rodrygo and Dani Ceballos could trigger further signings.

Other Notable Moves

• Ademola Lookman: Atalanta may consider selling the winger if they receive a substantial offer.
• Rodrigo De Paul: Set to join Inter Miami on loan, with an option for a permanent move in 2026.
• Keylor Navas: Transfer to Pumas is complicated by Newell’s Old Boys’ valuation.

Stay tuned for more updates as the transfer window progresses, with clubs racing against time to finalize their squads for the upcoming season.
