Went for 60 million, comes back on a loan

Yan Diomande left for Real Madrid, bringing 125,000,000 euros into the club’s coffers, but Leipzig fans — who have somehow grown alongside the club — now have a new/old hero to rely on. Red Bull’s German football operation has brought back former fan favourite Christopher Nkunku. He is not quite Diomande’s position, but he was just as effective at Leipzig. The French forward previously played for the same club from 2019 to 2023 and did so exceptionally well: in 172 appearances, he scored 70 goals and provided another 56 assists.HE IS BACK! 🎈😍Christopher #Nkunku kehrt für die Saison 2026/27 auf Leihbasis zu den Roten Bullen zurück.

Allan agreed, but City still want Gakpo

Tottenham have been circling Cody Gakpo throughout the transfer window, and Liverpool might well have paid the price in their Premier League opener against Newcastle without the Dutchman. He opened the season with a superb goal, demonstrating tremendous professionalism despite having a provisional agreement with Tottenham since July over a contract running until 2031. However, Gianluca Di Marzio reports — and transfer experts across Europe are now confirming — that Manchester City have seriously entered the race and have made contact with the Netherlands international’s representatives. The Citizens are going through a summer of major changes to their squad. They have brought in 190,000,000 euros from player sales before agreeing Savinho’s move to Tottenham for close to 100,000,000 euros and Omar Marmoush’s loan deal, which includes a potential purchase for almost 60,000,000 euros. Rodri and Reijnders have left, Elliot Anderson has arrived and Ayoub Buadi is expected to follow… But a..

United finally sign their dynamo midfielder

He was never someone you would call a top-class player. But he was exactly the kind of player the vast majority of managers would want in their squad, because he could handle a variety of tasks and roles. As a player, Michael Carrick’s physicality was never his greatest asset — his brain was. He played on instinct, read situations well and, although there are no guarantees, he should probably know what this Manchester United team needs in midfield. Fans wanted Casemiro to stay for another year, and the Brazilian even kissed the badge, but he did not change his mind. He left Old Trafford, and almost the entire midfield has been rebuilt. Manchester United’s midfield looks nothing like it did last season.At last – Baleba! United closing in on Cameroonian’s move to Old TraffordYouri Tielemans arrived, as did Andrey Santos. And that was still not enough. Manchester United pushed hard in the final days of the summer transfer window and secured another midfield reinforcement: today, they offi..
