Premier League Transfer News: Salah, Kane, Manchester United And Much More
As the summer transfer window approaches, clubs across Europe are lining up their moves. From Mohamed Salah’s potential exit to Manchester United’s growing list of targets, here’s a roundup of the latest transfer rumours making headlines.
Mohamed Salah Still a Priority for Saudi Clubs
Officials in Saudi Arabia remain optimistic about signing Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah this summer. With just three months left on his current contract and no clear progress toward an extension, the Egyptian’s future at Anfield is far from certain. His frustration over stalled negotiations has added to the unease already surrounding Liverpool, especially given the contract situations of Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Despite Salah still prioritising Liverpool, Saudi Pro League officials believe they are firmly in contention to sign him at the end of the 2024/25 season. According to The Telegraph, Salah maintains open communication with Saudi representatives, and there’s growing confidence that he may consider the move if Liverpool fall short of his contract demands.
Harry Kane Shuts Down Exit Talk – For Now
Harry Kane has poured cold water on speculation linking him with a return to the Premier League, insisting he is happy at Bayern Munich. The England captain, who is closing in on his first senior team trophy with Bayern, labelled reports of release clauses and transfer links as “a few random stories” in an interview with ESPN.
“I’m happy here at Bayern Munich,” Kane stated, although he didn’t rule out a Premier League return later in his career. When asked, he responded, “I’m not sure… I like to just go with the flow and at the moment the flow is here at Bayern Munich.” The forward remains under contract with Bayern until 2027.
Matheus Cunha Could Leave Wolves Amid Premier League Interest
Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Vitor Pereira has not closed the door on a potential exit for star striker Matheus Cunha. The Brazilian forward has thrived since joining from Atletico Madrid for £44m, hitting a purple patch in 2024/25 and outdoing his tally of 14 goals from the previous season.
Speaking before Wolves’ match against West Ham, Pereira admitted, “The future? I don’t know. He knows his potential… It’s normal he has the ambition to fight for titles” (pre-match press conference). Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United are all believed to be monitoring Cunha closely ahead of the summer.
