La Liga
- According to reports from AS, Villareal is close to signing Real Madrid’s Denis Cheryshev as Real is reportedly not keen on keeping the winger. Cheryshev was on loan with Valencia last season and a move to Villareal would be better for the club and the 25-year-old as he had previously played with them on loan in 2014/15 and had performed decently across the season.
Villareal is trying to seal the deal to secure the Russian’s services and is likely to make it official before the start of the season.
- According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona’s sporting Director Robert Fernandez has scouted three players during Portugal’s match against Estonia. Though the exact details are yet to be known, it was reported earlier that Barcelona was on the lookout for a right-back, a back-up forward, a centre-back, a left-back and a central midfielder.
This has turned speculations in favour of Cedric Soares, Raphael Guerreiro, and Andre Gomez and could most possibly be their prime targets this summer as Manchester United is also apparently on the lookout for these players.
- According to reports on Sky Sports, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are keen on signing Celta Vigo’s Nolito this summer. The La Liga giants had been reportedly scouting him over the past six months and Atletico is allegedly leading the chase for the Spanish striker.
However, a move will only materialize if Nolito decides to move from his current club and reports on Lainformacion state that he is reluctant on leaving the club this season.
