General transfer rumours

The fawning over Rashford is ridiculous but to be expected from the Rag media. He has pace and can sometimes finish well, but the jury is well and truly still out imo on whether he will be make it and become a top class player.

His club goal scoring record is pretty poor really. He's all sizzle and no sausage right now, only time and better coach will tell whether he can realise his full potential

Barcelona have identified Manchester City midfielder Ilkay Gündogan as a major summer target to replace the outgoing Andres Iniesta, according to Charlie Wyett, football editor of The Sun.

The 27-year-old is an important member of Pep Guardiola’s Man City squad, despite not being a guaranteed starter, and Barça see him as having the right profile to step in for club legend Iniesta.

According to the report, Gündogan, who cost City a reported £20million when he joined from Borussia Dortmund in 2016, would set Barcelona back in excess of £50million were he to be sold.

City have no desire to let the German international leave and are likely to offer him a new contract soon, which would extend his stay beyond 2020.

The idea of becoming a regular for the Spanish champions could turn Gündogan’s head however, and it remains to be seen how he would respond if Barcelona follow up on their interest with a bid.

Gündogan had an agreement to join the La Liga giants in 2015, but then-coach Luis Enrique insisted on signing Arda Turan and a proposed deal collapsed – leading to him joining City the following year.

Ilkay made 46 appearances in all competitions for City in the double-winning 2017-18 season, starting 15 of the team’s 38 Premier League fixtures.

Alisson to Real Madrid can be finalized in a matter of days or even hours. The signing can be closed between €60-65M which is cheaper than De Gea and Courtois’ €100M price tag. The club wants Keylor to compete with him & Alisson won’t arrive as a ‘definitive starter’. [marca] pic.twitter.com/65oenLLXwI

Big blow for Liverpool.

If they don't significantly upgrade on Karius and Mignolet then I can't see them getting anywhere near us next season.
 
Whilst he doesn’t have the excellent distribution of Ederson and Allison, I think Schmeichel would be a good option for Liverpool. He’s one of the best shot stoppers in the league, and is better than Mignolet and Karius.

I'd be happy to see him go there.
He's a decent keeper but absolutely calamitous at playing out from the back under a high press.
His distribution is rubbish.
