Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are all reportedly eyeing a move for Atlético Madrid midfielder Giuliano Simeone, while Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool have turned their attention to AS Roma’s 19‑year‑old right‑back Emanuele Lulli. The latest reports, sourced from TEAMtalk and other outlets, suggest that Premier League clubs are keen to bring fresh talent from Europe to their squads ahead of the new season.
Simeone, the son of Atlético’s long‑time coach Diego Simeone, has attracted interest from the three North London clubs after a strong showing in the Spanish league. Tottenham are said to have explored a switch, but Atlético have expressed a reluctance to let the young midfielder leave, meaning any transfer would face significant hurdles. The 23‑year‑old has already made a name for himself in La Liga, and the Premier League clubs hope he can add creativity and energy to their attacking options.
Meanwhile, Lulli has made a splash in Serie A, starting four of Roma’s five games this season. His performances have drawn the eye of Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool, as well as Paris Saint‑Germain. Roma are currently trying to secure a long‑term contract for the defender, but the clubs in England are reportedly ready to swoop in if the player becomes available. Lulli’s pace and defensive work rate make him an attractive prospect for teams looking to strengthen their full‑back options.
Other transfer chatter includes Chelsea’s interest in Barcelona’s Jules Koundé, who scored in a 3‑0 win over Getafe last week. The France international is also on the radar of several Premier League clubs, and Barcelona are reportedly open to a move in the summer. In the German Bundesliga, Bayer Leverkusen and Christian Kofane are at an impasse over a contract extension, with the 20‑year‑old unhappy about his role in the squad and hoping to move to the Premier League in the future.
Additional rumors involve Arsenal’s continued pursuit of Julián Álvarez, Tottenham’s interest in Benfica striker Vangelis Pavlidis, and Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham monitoring Roma full‑back Wesley. Other clubs such as RB Leipzig and Leeds United are also eyeing players in the coming windows, while Atalanta’s Gianluca Scamacca is close to signing a new deal until 2030. The latest transfer news underscores the busy activity across Europe as clubs prepare for the upcoming season.
