Liverpool compete with Real Madrid for The British foot in 2023
Liverpool have reportedly joined dortmund rising star Bellingham in a signing competition and will compete with Real Madrid in 2023. The 18-year-old was impressed during his time in the Bundesliga, with Klopp's side taking a strong interest in the midfielder before he was rumored to return to England. Bellingham's current contract with Borussia Dortmund expires until 2025 and with striker Haaland being the main target for most of Europe's top teams, the Bundesliga side is expected to retain the England international this summer. However, according to British media reports, Liverpool must be prepared to move quickly next year to secure the signing of the young player, as Real Madrid will also bid for Bellingham a year later. Believed to be worth £100 million and likely to increase by the end of next season, Bellingham has been identified as Modric's replacement at the Bernabeu. The former Birmingham midfielder scored 10 goals and assisted 17 times in 83 games for Borussia Dortmund in his career.
Barca and Real Madrid snatchers Iron Guard
Barcelona are reportedly battling rivals Real Madrid in a battle for Arsenal defender Tierney this summer. The Spanish giants are believed to have cemented their interest in him after Tierney scored their first international goal for Scotland last week, while Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti is said to be a longtime admirer of the 24-year-old. Ancelotti reportedly tried to sign Tierney in 2019 when he coached Napoli but ultimately missed him, while Tierney completed a transfer from Celtic to Arsenal. However, British media reported that Ancelotti is expected to try again to sign Tierney this summer but will have to fend off competition from the Xavi side. Barcelona are expected to bid for Tierney for £50m, and Catalan clubs will also have to comply with La Liga rules, which are already concerned about Barca's financial situation. Since coming to Emirates Stadium, Tierney has provided 12 assists for the Gunners and scored four goals in 87 games.
Manchester United waived the three-time contract extension
United reportedly have no plans to renew Jesse Lingard, Mata and Cavani as the three are no longer in Old Trafford's future plans. All three attacking players, whose contracts expire at the end of the season, have struggled to buy game time during the season, with only seven Premier League starts in total. After a successful loan spell in East London last year, Jesse Lingard was rumored to be back at West Ham in January, and the Hammers are likely to be interested in signing him for free this summer. European media said the Reds had no plans to extend the contracts of Jesse Lingard, Mata or Cavani, while Bruno Fernandez, Rashford and Luke Shaw were ready to sign new contracts. United have yet to appoint their next full manager, but whoever replaces Ronnick is not expected to have these three strikers in the squad. In a bid to bolster their attacking options, United are in talks with Roma about tammy Abraham's transfer.
