Real Madrid ready to bid €120 million for Chelsea duo, Manchester United trying to offload Anthony Martial

AC Milan v Juventus FC - TIM Cup Final
Juventus planning to sign Pogba again

The transfer window is approaching the closing stage for Premier League teams as they will not be able to buy any players after August 9. For the other leagues, it will close on August 31. It is harsh for Premier League teams as the window is closing early considering the World Cup season they should have relaxed this rule. Anyway, let us not waste our time and quickly dive into today's transfer news.


Juventus considering to lure Paul Pogba again from Manchester United

The Frenchman had a brilliant World Cup campaign and has been appreciated by many around the world not only for his performances but also for his leadership skills behind the scenes. But his situation with his current club, Manchester United, seems a bit bitter as the team's manager Mourinho still can't accept that Pogba can deliver what he did to France.

Amidst this, Juventus is on cloud 9 after signing the CR7 and wants to improve the team even more by signing the French midfielder, according to the Daily Mirror.

Juventus wants to dominate European competition once again, and the team looks like it's going in that direction, but luring Pogba requires a huge amount of money and the team is ready to fund the move from sales of Gonzalo Higuain, Miralem Pjanic, Daniele Rugani and Mattia Caldara.

Considering the situation Pogba is in with Man Utd it is a very good option for him if he chooses to stay away from his manager but the guy seems to prove to fans and manager what he is capable of and he is not a runaway kind from a difficult situation instead has that capability to lead the team which we saw during last season's match against Manchester City.

So considering all those possibilities the rumour possibility rating could be 4/10.

Barcelona confirms that Lucas Digne is leaving the club

Celta de Vigo v Barcelona - La Liga
Everton is on verge of signing Barcelona's Lucas Digne

Everton's boss, Marco Silva, wants to replace the veteran Leighton Baines with Lucas Digne, and the Toffees have been linked with him for the past few weeks, and finally, the move will be done this week after an official tweet from Barcelona revealed today that "Lucas Digne travels today to Barcelona with the Club's permission to finalize his departure from the club."

Goal has reported that a fee around €25 million has been agreed between the two clubs.

It is understandable that Lucas Digne was disappointed after his emission from the World Cup for France and that he believes his lack of regular game time with Barcelona cost him his place, and it may not change as Ernesto Valverde's first choice was Jordi Alba.

Considering all the facts, the transfer possibility rating is 9/10.

Chelsea joined the race for Christian Pulisic

Borussia Dortmund v Benfica - International Champions Cup 2018
The American teenager has attracted Premier League top clubs with his skills

Christian Pulisic is one of the brightest prospects for the American football team. The player's current loyalty lies with Borussia Dortmund, but it could change quickly in the coming days as Liverpool is eyeing the youngster for so long, and Klopp identified him as a perfect replacement for Philippe Coutinho.

Chelsea is now leading the race to sign this youngster from recent reports by The Daily Mirror.

As reports suggest that he is available for £65 million, and Chelsea is in initial talks with Borussia Dortmund over a possible move.

Chelsea Manager Maurizio Sarri possibly thought that it would be impossible to keep some of their stars and Willian might be one of them so Sarri wants to bring Pulisic before Willian's move away from the club.

Dortmund is known as a selling club and they probably won't resist the move if they receive the price quoted by them.

Considering all the facts this transfer's rating is 6/10.

PSG rejected Manchester United's Martial offer

Brighton and Hove Albion v Manchester United - Premier League
Jose Mourinho is not a fan of Anthony Martial as he is trying to sell the star.

According to Express, PSG rejected a chance to sign Anthony Martial. It is understandable that PSG was shocked by the amount Manchester United was demanding, which was around €80 million.

Manchester United is already under pressure from their fans as the club's lack of transfer activity and their recent defeat against Liverpool added salt to the wound.

Anthony Martial is undoubtedly one of the players to watch out this season. He has the potential to become a world-class player, but his lack of game time has made his situation worse as it is the reason why he was left out of the French World Cup team. The situation started to worsen when Mourinho signed Alexis Sanchez, who unsettled Rashford and Martial, who are fighting for the same spot in the team.

Mourinho doesn't like Martial, and his recent comments on his departure from pre-season to be with his newly born baby are an example for that.

Considering the facts, it is understandable that time is closer for his departure if he wants to be in the French national team's lineup again.

Considering all the facts, the rating for this transfer is 4/10.

Real Madrid eyeing for Willian and Courtois

Julen Lopetegui Announced As New Real Madrid Manager
Real Madrid prepared to raid Chelsea for superstar players

Real Madrid, interested in signing the Golden Glove winner Thibaut Courtois and his teammate Eden Hazard, is a well-known fact from so many days, but recent reports suggest that Real is now considering a single bid for Courtois and Willian.

Courtois has only one year left on his contract, and he has yet to agree to a new one, meaning after this season that he is free to move to Real. Willian situation is a bit different as a number of clubs were interested in signing him like Manchester United and Barcelona.

Chelsea probably won't sell Willian to their rivals, and Barcelona bought Malcom, which left Real Madrid in pole position to sign the Brazilian winger.

Real Madrid has a vacant place on the left wing after Ronaldo's departure, and Real will probably add a temporary replacement in the form of Willian if Eden Hazard/Neymar/Mbappe were unavailable this season.

Considering all the facts, the rating for this transfer is 6.5/10.
