During negotiations with Como—where Paz spent last season—representatives of the Spanish giants made it clear that a temporary move is no longer on the table. If the Italian club wants to keep one of its standout performers, they'll have to buy out his contract.

It's reported that Real's head coach José Mourinho is fully behind the idea of a permanent sale for Paz. The club believes it's time to make a long-term decision regarding the future of a player who impressed with his confident performances in Serie A.

The ball is now in Como's court, as the club must decide whether it is ready to invest heavily in the Argentine's transfer. Negotiations are ongoing, and a resolution is expected in the near future.

To secure the World Cup champion, the Catalan giants are ready to splash out on a colossal financial package—one that could rank among the biggest deals in football history. Insider sources reveal Barcelona is preparing an official offer with a fixed sum of a staggering 135 million euros.

On top of that, the deal will include various bonuses and add-ons totaling another 15 million euros, potentially taking the overall transfer package to an astronomical 150 million euros.

Their sources report that no medical was scheduled for the weekend, and now Manchester United’s top brass will have to be patient and wait longer than originally anticipated.

The official completion of the transfer has been delayed due to sudden changes in the player’s international schedule. Ederson was not initially included in Brazil’s main squad for the 2026 World Cup, but a muscle injury to defender Wesley opened the door for the Atalanta midfielder—he received an emergency late call-up and flew out to join the national team for the tournament.

Now Manchester United will only be able to finalize the deal and sign all legal documents after the Seleção complete their World Cup campaign in North America.

Reminder: Manchester United could bolster their midfield with two young talents.

Details: According to CrossyDailyStar, Real Madrid have set their sights on 29-year-old Portuguese central defender Rúben Dias from Manchester City.

It is reported that the head coach of "Los Blancos," José Mourinho, has personally requested the club's management to sign Dias. Real are prepared to offer the "Citizens" around £80 million, which could persuade City's management to let their player go.

This season, Dias has played 33 matches for Manchester City, scoring 2 goals. His current contract with the "Citizens" runs until 2029, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €55 million.

Reminder: Interesting move. Chelsea wants to sign Real Madrid defender as Cucurella replacement

Details: According to Diario AS, after Chelsea's key player Marc Cucurella made his move to Real Madrid, the London club has seriously started searching for a successor to the 27-year-old Spaniard.

The source reports that the "Blues" have set their sights on 23-year-old Real Madrid left-back Álvaro Carreras, who has failed to live up to the club’s expectations and found himself increasingly benched towards the end of the season.

At this point, it’s unclear whether Real Madrid is willing to let Carreras go, but Chelsea are ready to open negotiations after the World Cup.

Marc Cucurella joined Real Madrid last week for €55 million.

As for Carreras, this season he has played 40 matches for Los Blancos, scoring 2 goals and providing 3 assists. His transfer value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €50 million.

Reminder: Cucurella replacement! Chelsea sets sights on Uruguayan left-back

Details: According to Diario SPORT, the Blaugrana's shortlist has surprisingly featured the name of Ukrainian winger Viktor Tsygankov. The 28-year-old Girona leader is being considered by the Barcelona board as the perfect alternative to strengthen the attacking line, offering a cost-effective solution that would free up funds for other high-profile signings.

• Also read: The champion's path: prediction for Argentina vs Algeria match on June 17

Head coach Hansi Flick views the Ukrainian as an ideal team player and a true utility "joker." Tsygankov is not the type to stir up drama over limited playing time, yet he boasts the versatility to cover four attacking roles: both flanks (where he can deputize for Lamine Yamal), the playmaker position, and even as a false nine—a role he has already excelled in under Míchel at Girona.

Reports indicate that Viktor has formally notified Girona's management that his chapter at the club is over, especially in light of the team's relegation to the Segunda. Thanks to a gentleman's agreement, the Ukrainian has the right to leave the club as a free agent, with no transfer fee required.

Despite being able to sign the player for free, Barcelona is determined to maintain a strong relationship with their neighbors. As compensation for Girona’s new project in the Segunda, they may offer several promising youngsters from the famed La Masia academy on loan.

Recall: Barcelona have already found a replacement for Julián Álvarez in the Premier League.

Details: According to Corriere Dello Sport, the Manchester United board is ready to drastically shift its summer transfer strategy—opting for promising young players from the Championship instead of high-priced superstars.

Reports indicate that difficulties in negotiations with Sandro Tonali and other midfield targets have forced the Red Devils’ management to turn their attention to 23-year-old Middlesbrough holding midfielder Hayden Hackney and 22-year-old Southampton defensive midfielder Shea Charles.

Both players are viewed as more affordable options to reinforce the central defensive line if United fails to land their preferred, more high-profile targets.

Transfermarkt values Hayden Hackney at €32 million and Shea Charles at €15 million, but Southampton has already made it clear they will demand no less than £30 million.

Ansu Fati initially joined Monaco on a season-long loan from Barcelona in the summer of 2025. He made 30 appearances for "Les Monégasques" this season, scoring 12 goals—performances that convinced the club's management to trigger the buyout clause.

Reports indicate that the World Cup winner with Argentina has stopped hiding his dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs at the London club and is openly telling those around him about his desire to move on this summer.

• See also: Group G World Cup clash: Belgium vs Egypt. Match preview, June 15

Chelsea's management remains completely calm about the situation, protected by the player's long-term contract, but they are not going to force the Argentine to stay against his will. As announced last month, the Blues have set a fixed price tag of £120 million for Fernandez.

For Real Madrid, this transfer is far from a done deal. Right now, the hierarchy at Los Blancos, led by José Mourinho, are engaged in intense internal discussions. Madrid's decision-makers are trying to finalize the exact profile and characteristics of the midfielder needed to achieve perfect balance in the center of the pitch. In addition to Enzo, the club's management is actively considering other alternatives.

Currently, Real's shortlist for the central midfield position includes two other high-profile names—Mateus Fernandes and Manchester City’s star defensive midfielder Rodri.

It's worth noting that this season, the Moroccan forward has played 37 matches, scoring 19 goals and providing 9 assists. Transfermarkt values the player at €40 million.

Reminder: Bayern are preparing to snap up another talented Bundesliga player.

The source reports that one of the reasons for a possible transfer is the player's dissatisfaction with his role at the club. It's said that Barcola was left frustrated by the coaching staff's decision to bench him for the Champions League final.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

The French winger's contract with PSG runs for another two years, which means any potential buyers will have to pay a hefty fee for his transfer. In the 2025/26 season, Barcola had a standout campaign with the European champions, tallying 13 goals and 7 assists across all competitions.

The journalist reports that all parties, including the player himself, have agreed to the deal. The expectation is that the Spaniard will join Real after the conclusion of the World Cup.

Financial terms remain undisclosed, but Romano has already given his trademark "Here We Go," signaling that the negotiations are effectively wrapped up.

For the record, the 27-year-old defender has been plying his trade at Chelsea since summer 2022 after joining from Brighton. During this time, he has played over 100 matches for the London club and has become a key player for the Spanish national team.

According to journalist Ben Jacobs, the Citizens have already tabled a £121 million offer, but the Forest board has turned it down.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

Despite the initial rejection, there’s no shortage of optimism at Manchester City. At the Etihad, Anderson is viewed as a top target to bolster the midfield, and the club is ready to continue talks with Nottingham Forest, who are standing firm on their valuation.

The club is hoping to secure a fee for the 22-year-old midfielder that would eclipse the British transfer record. The benchmark is Alexander Isak’s move to Liverpool, which hit the £125 million mark.

Reports indicate the American club is the frontrunner to land the captain of the Polish national team. Once Lewandowski's contract with Barcelona expires, he'll become a free agent, and Chicago Fire is prepared to offer the striker a salary in the region of €20 million per year.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

Interestingly, over the past three years, the club had been chasing Neymar, but the Brazilian ultimately chose to return home. Now, Lewandowski has become Chicago Fire's top priority. If negotiations succeed, the Polish forward could emerge as the club's new marquee star and one of the most high-profile players in the entire league.

Reports indicate that Brown has already reached an agreement with Bayern on personal terms. The sides have ironed out a contract that will run until the summer of 2031.

In recent days, Bayern representatives have been actively negotiating with Eintracht, and now the deal is in its final stages. All remaining details are expected to be settled in the near future.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

The 22-year-old Brown is regarded as one of the Bundesliga’s most promising young players and has attracted interest from several top European clubs thanks to his consistent performances for both Frankfurt and the German national team. However, it is Bayern who have won the race for his signature.

Pulisic's current contract with the Rossoneri runs until the summer of 2027. Milan also hold a unilateral option to extend the deal for an additional season—through 2028. However, negotiations over a new long-term agreement have stalled, and the midfielder has been awaiting concrete steps from the club's management for several months.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

Reports indicate that Pulisic's representatives have held talks with Roma head coach Gian Piero Gasperini, who is eager to bolster his attacking options ahead of the new campaign. The Giallorossi, however, will face stiff competition in the race for the American's signature. According to sources, the player's agents have also received offers from several Premier League sides and MLS clubs.

The source reports that the London club values the player at around £80 million. At the same time, United believe this price tag is inflated and hope to reach a compromise during negotiations.

• See also: Favorite faces trap team: prediction for Brazil vs Morocco - 14.06.2026

West Ham's management are confident that the Portuguese midfielder's potential is on par with Declan Rice, who was sold to Arsenal in 2023 for £105 million. That's why the club is in no rush to make a decision regarding the player's sale, despite their relegation from the Premier League.

Details: According to TEAMtalk, citing Spanish outlet El Debate, the Gunners’ defenders Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapié—both capable of playing centrally or on the left side of defense—are holding regular consultations with their agents about a potential move to the Santiago Bernabéu.

• See also: Match prediction: Germany vs Curaçao. For one, a must-win; for the other, a historic day. World Cup, 14.06.2026

Both players are currently vying for game time in London and are eager to don the famous white shirt, with their combined transfer value estimated at around €50–60 million.

Nevertheless, the top priority for "the Special One" remains Manchester City’s star defender Joško Gvardiol, whose price tag is also around €60 million. Still, the Real Madrid hierarchy believes they can lure Gvardiol to Madrid for Mourinho’s ambitious new project. Should that deal fall through, Real is ready to immediately shift focus to the Arsenal alternatives.

Reminder: Two top English clubs have shown interest in Marcus Rashford.

Details: According to TUTTOmercatoWEB, the Parisian powerhouse has set its sights on Barcelona and Spain winger Ferran Torres. PSG's management considers him a top priority to strengthen the squad in the summer transfer window should one of their key forwards depart.

Ferran Torres is under contract with the Catalan club until the summer of 2027, but Barcelona's financial difficulties could help facilitate the deal if the French side comes in with a generous offer.
