Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos left the Spanish club earlier this week and having been linked with Manchester City in the past, sporting director Txiki Begiristain should sign him for Pep Guardiola’s side this summer.

After bringing an end to his 16-year spell with the La Liga giants, where he would win a plethora of honours including four Champions League titles and five La Liga titles, Manchester City have been named by ESPN as the front runners in the race for the Spanish centre-back this summer.

The report claims that whilst Real Madrid were unwilling to offer him a two-year deal to stay at the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, City could offer him a two-year deal to play under Guardiola at the Etihad.

Whilst Ramos is now 35-years-old, he would bring a wealth of experience and a winning mentality to the Citizens, which could prove vital if they are to end their hunt for success in the Champions League next season.

Although he would go off injured in the final against City, Chelsea’s signing of fellow veteran centre-back Thiago Silva proved to be a masterstroke this season and he more than earned his one-year contract extension recently, so perhaps Ramos could have a similar impact at the Etihad next season.

Ramos missed much of last season through injury but emphasised his quality when he was on the pitch, averaging a solid 6.96 rating from WhoScored for his performances in La Liga, whilst his five appearances in the Champions League earned him an impressive 7.20 average rating.

Of course, City already have an impressive number of options at centre-back including Ruben Dias, John Stones, Aymeric Laporte and Nathan Ake but they could learn from Ramos’ immense experience should he arrive at the Etihad this summer.

The Spain international has proven himself, again and again, to be “world-class” throughout his career and whilst his playing days might be coming to an end, he can still be a massive addition for City this summer both on and off the pitch, so Txiki Begiristain must consider bringing him in after his Real Madrid release.

A major update has emerged on £65k-p/w Southampton transfer target Brandon Williams, it could lead to Martin Semmens needing to act swiftly.

What’s the talk?

According to The Athletic, Norwich are pursuing a deal for Manchester United fullback Williams ahead of next season. The report claims that there have been encouraging signs that Norwich can conclude a loan swoop for the English defender.

Last month, MEN reported that Williams would like to leave Old Trafford on loan next season to gain regular first-team minutes and they named Southampton as one of the teams who are interested in signing him. Ralph Hasenhuttl is said to want competition in the fullback areas and has identified Williams as a potential signing to bolster his first-team squad.

Back in 2020, United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised the “outstanding” defender for his performance against Chelsea in an FA Cup semi-final clash. He told United’s official website:

“You saw Brandon and the character he showed. He played a square pass into Mount [which led to their second goal] and he probably felt a bit responsible, but for the rest of the half he was absolutely outstanding.

“The kid has been out for a while and not played, and had the eye injury, but his character and personality out there was great, he kept going and kept going.”

Semmens must act now

Southampton CEO Martin Semmens must act now to secure a deal for Williams. If Semmens does not react quickly to this update then it could lead to the Saints missing out on his signature. Norwich are seemingly edging ahead of the Saints in the race to sign the fullback and it could be a big blow to Hasenhuttl’s plans if they watch Williams put pen to paper on a deal at Carrow Road.

The Saints are desperately lacking options in the fullback positions as it stands. Kyle Walker-Peters is currently the only senior, natural fullback who is set to be at the club beyond the end of the month, with Ryan Bertrand expected to leave upon the expiry of his contract. Le10 Sport has reported that Southampton are close to a deal to sign Brest left-back Romain Perraud, but that would still leave Hasenhuttl threadbare in the fullback positions and that is why a deal for Williams could be key.

Not only is Williams a natural full-back but he can also play on either side of the pitch. The £65k-per-week beast can play at right-back and left-back, having played both roles for Manchester United in the Premier League since the start of the 2019/20 campaign. Williams has started 13 Premier League games since 2019 for United, which shows that Solskjaer trusted him to perform when needed.

Therefore, fans would love it if the club could secure a deal for Williams. He has proven that he can play at Premier League level with Manchester United, as shown by Solskjaer’s faith in him, and has the versatility to cover two important positions for the Saints. This is why Semmens must act swiftly to avoid missing out on him to Norwich in the coming weeks.

تغلب فريق إنتر ميلان على نظيره هيلاس فيرونا، بهدفين دون رد، مساء اليوم السبت، ضمن منافسات الدوري الإيطالي لموسم 2021-2022.

وحل هيلاس فيرونا ضيفًا على إنتر ميلان في ملعب “جوزيبي مياتزا” معقل النيراتزوري، وذلك في إطار مباريات الجولة 32.

بدأ إنتر ميلان المباراة بقوة وسيطر على الكرة حتى تمكن نيكولو باريلا من إحراز الهدف الأول لأصحاب الأرض في الدقيقة 22 بعد تمريرة عرضية من إيفان بريسيتش.

Manchester City have a huge void in their side after seeing their all-time top scorer, Sergio Aguero, walk away as a free agent but former defender Steve Howey believes that they have a chance of signing one of Harry Kane or Erling Haaland.

City’s chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak has promised fans that they will replace Aguero this summer and that will have got minds racing in Manchester about the thought of their club going all out for Kane or Haaland, as they could potentially afford one of them.

Reports have confirmed that the Premier League champions are interested in both Kane and Haaland, as are most of the top clubs in Europe, and with them scoring a combined total of 74 goals in all competitions it would be bizarre if they weren’t making calls.

Kane reportedly wanted his future sorted before the European Championships and considering England’s first game is on Sunday that appears unlikely, however they still have a chance of getting him or Haaland, that’s according to Howey who spoke exclusively to Football FanCast:

“There’s every chance, but Pep Guardiola is one of these managers that definitely won’t pay over the odds for anybody, and I think Haaland’s release clause comes into effect next summer.”

It would appear unlikely that Haaland would leave Borussia Dortmund this summer considering they’re wanting over £100 million but he can be signed for closer to £70 million next summer when his release clause comes into play.

Kane however appears to be desperate for a new challenge and having the ability to win silverware, something that is still just a dream for both fans and players at Tottenham Hotspur.

West Ham United are reportedly facing even more competition for one of their top transfer targets ahead of the summer transfer window…

What’s the word?

Back in April, the ever-reliable Irons insider ExWHUemployee told fans that David Moyes’ first-choice striker target was Tammy Abraham, who is thought to be free to leave Chelsea for around £40m.

And now the Hammers are facing a likely transfer tussle over his signature, especially with the Scot supposedly unwilling to pay such a high fee for a homegrown and proven Premier League talent.

According to the Sunday World, top-flight rivals Crystal Palace are the latest side to be linked to the 23-year-old forward and despite not having a manager in the dugout, there is ‘strong interest’ from their side.

Leicester City, Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers have also been linked to Abraham in recent months.

Big setback

This will come as devastating news to Moyes, especially if the Chelsea outcast is indeed his no.1 candidate.

It’s no secret that the East London outfit are desperate for additions to their frontline. After the departure of club-record flop Sebastian Haller in January, the 58-year-old was left with only one striker, an injury-prone Michail Antonio.

He has not started in more than 24 games in any Premier League season, leaving Moyes in a sticky spot whenever he’s injured. At times, the likes of Manchester United loan sensation Jesse Lingard and Jarrod Bowen had to be deployed as makeshift centre-forwards.

[snack-amp-story url= “https://www.footballfancast.com/web-stories/read-the-latest-west-ham-news-transfer-rumours-the-latest-gossip-and-much-more” title= “Read the latest West Ham news, transfer rumours, gossip and more!”]

The need for a new talisman has since ramped up, with the Irons qualifying to compete in the Europa League next season. Even the addition of one man may not be enough to keep them competitive in what could be a 50-plus game season.

Abraham is certainly an interesting candidate, given he finished the season amongst Chelsea’s top goalscorers (six) despite rarely featuring under Thomas Tuchel.

In all competitions this season, the six-time England international – who is not on the plane to the Euros – has found the next 12 times, taking his total tally for the Blues to 30 in 82 appearances, via Transfermarkt.

His attitude on the training ground earned praise from club legend John Terry, who coached him during a loan spell at Villa in the Championship. He told the club’s official website that the striker was “incredible” and also added:

“His passion is infectious. We all want results and performances, but supporters want you to work your socks off for the football club. Tammy has that and that’s what you want in the whole group. It breeds a winning mentality and makes you relentless.”

The fact that there is yet another side in the running for him will come as a massive blow to the Irons, especially it could leave Moyes rueing his stubbornness over the fee.

They simply cannot afford to risk going into next season with just Antonio. That would be disastrous.

Um dos nomes indicados por Abel Braga à diretoria do Fluminense é o do volante Wellington Martins, do São Paulo. O técnico ainda sugeriu outros possíveis reforços para 2017, mas os nomes ainda são debatidos pelo grupo formado pelo presidente Pedro Abad para gerir o departamento de futebol.

O treinador é fã do futebol do Wellington, com quem trabalhou no Internacional em 2014. O comandante vê no jogador, que completa 26 anos em janeiro, a capacidade de atuar em várias funções no meio de campo.

Depois do período em que estiveram juntos no Colorado, a carreira de Wellington percalços. No fim de 2015, ainda no Inter, o volante foi pego no doping e suspenso por cinco meses. De volta ao São Paulo, sofreu com lesões e só entrou em campo três vezes.

A princípio, Wellington está nos planos do clube paulista para 2017, mas sua negociação não é descartada pela diretoria. Revelado nas categorias de base do São Paulo, Wellington tem contrato válido até outubro de 2018.

Além da boa relação com Abel Braga, o Flu espera contar com a vontade do jogador em se juntar ao elenco das Laranjeiras. Isso porque Wellington chegaria com status de titular, enquanto no São Paulo brigaria por uma vaga, agora sob o comando do técnico Rogério Ceni.

According to Vital Rangers, Ryan Gauld would be interested in a move to Glasgow Rangers from Portuguese outfit Farense.

Gauld would consider Rangers move

Gauld currently plays in the Portuguese top tier with Farense, who he joined from previous outfit Sporting Lisbon in 2019.

Now, it is being reported that the £3.15m-valued 25-year-old (Transfermarkt) would be interested in moving to Ibrox. He is out of contract at the end of the campaign, Vital Rangers also add.

Potential bargain

Gauld was once lauded as the next star in Scottish football. He started out at Dundee United as a teenager before moving to Lisbon, and was even likened to world superstar Lionel Messi (The Guardian). Initially, though, he struggled to match any of his huge potential.

However, his latest move has coincided with huge improvements to his game. Last term, he netted nine goals and provided five assists in 24 games, while this term he has eight and five respectively in 28 outings (Transfermarkt). Finally, he is showing in parts why so many expected big things from him.

Of course, Rangers would represent a step up in terms of the size of club, but the Portuguese league is superior in technical quality than the Premiership. Signing him on a free transfer would be a potential bargain.

In other news, this Gers star says he wants to stay at Ibrox.

In an exclusive interview with The Transfer Tavern, Steve Howey, who made 271 appearances during his career, believes that if West Ham paid £60 million for Jesse Lingard they would not be overpaying.

Since joining in January, Lingard has enjoyed a fine loan spell at West Ham having scored eight goals in just nine Premier League games, which saw him earn a recall to Gareth Southgate’s England squad last month.

Simon Jordan claimed on talkSPORT that West Ham won’t be able to sign Lingard this summer because he will cost them too much, and that Man United will value him at £60 million.

Speaking on how £60 million wouldn’t be a lot of money for West Ham and how it would be a big thing for Lingard to leave Man United, Howey told The Transfer Tavern:

“It’s all very good going somewhere on loan but it’s a totally different proposition moving to London permanently.

“I think £60 million is a lot of money for Jesse Lingard, but on the other hand if he went to West Ham for that amount of money and keeps up this kind of form he’s in, then it won’t be a lot.”

It has been reported that David Moyes wants to sign Lingard permanently in the summer, however, they face competition from Arsenal who are prepared to hijack any potential deal for the Man United midfielder.

Moyes will be hoping Lingard can remain fit for the rest of the season and help bring Champions League football to the London Stadium next season.
