Live Transfer Market: News, Transfers and Rumors Today, 23 July 2023
Danjuma, on loan to Everton
Villarreal has loaned Danjuma again, this time to Everton. Previously, the winger spent the winter on loan at Tottenham Hotspur before returning briefly to Villarreal. The latest arrangement keeps him within the English-speaking football sphere as clubs reassess attacking options for the forthcoming campaign.
Verratti, Atleti’s number one target for midfield renewal
Atlético de Madrid recognizes the challenge of securing a player like Marco Verratti from Paris Saint‑Germain, yet they are actively pursuing midfield reinforcement with him as the primary objective. Reports indicate talks between the rojiblancos and PSG as Diego Simeone’s side weighs the benefits of adding an experienced pivot to the squad. The proposed transfer price is around 70 million euros.
Madrid insiders stress that no player is irreplaceable in the French squad, echoed by recent market movements. Competing interests include Middle Eastern investors scouting Verratti and interest from English powerhouses in the Premier League, such as Liverpool, who could join the race if opportunities arise.
PSG anticipates multiple offers for Mbappé
Paris Saint‑Germain has signaled openness about Mbappé’s future by omitting him from the squad’s plans for a forthcoming tour. This stance keeps the door open on a potential departure and leaves a sizable transfer windfall in the club’s treasury. Mbappé’s status remains highly transferable, attracting interest from several top clubs beyond Real Madrid, which had been the early frontrunner, as noted by sports outlets.
According to Marca, PSG expects a bid from Saudi Arabia in the near term, with Al Hilal among the most mentioned suitors. Other major European clubs are weighing their options as well, including Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur, who could enter the bidding if Mbappé remains on the market. (Marca)
