Chelsea is looking to make major changes under Sir Jim Ratcliffe, with most of their squad available for transfer. The team is also seeking a new manager and is expected to be active in the transfer market. There are ongoing rumors and confirmed deals across Europe, including the potential departure of Greenwood from Manchester United.
Greenwood, 22, is likely to leave Old Trafford as he enters the final year of his contract. Italian club Juventus has been given permission to make a move for the United academy graduate, but they may need to sell players to balance their books. Chiesa, an Italy international, has been linked with a potential departure from Turin this summer.
Meanwhile, Manchester United is facing challenges in acquiring certain players due to high asking prices. The club’s pursuit of Everton’s centre-half, Branthwaite, has been affected by the high transfer fee. Additionally, the departure of young talent Forson, who made his senior debut under Ten Hag, highlights the transfer movements happening in the English club.
Despite previous considerations of sacking Ten Hag, the new Man Utd chief will stick with him for the 2024-25 season. Elsewhere, Bayern Munich, under the leadership of Kompany, is looking to strengthen its defense and has shown interest in Gomez’s versatility, given his impressive performances for Liverpool in various positions.
