Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool are reportedly eyeing Bayern Munich striker Lennart Karl, while AC Milan is said to be scouting United defender Leny Yoro. The transfer chatter comes as the 18‑year‑old German has struggled for regular minutes after signing a long‑term contract with the Bavarian club earlier this year. Karl has appeared nine times in the current campaign, netting one goal and providing an assist, and his future is now a topic of discussion for several Premier League giants.
Bayern’s new deal, signed in January, was intended to secure Karl’s place in the squad, but his limited game time has prompted interest from clubs across Europe. Arsenal, United and Liverpool have all been mentioned in reports from TEAMtalk as monitoring the forward’s situation. Karl’s lack of minutes could make him a viable exit option for Bayern if his role does not expand in the coming months.
Meanwhile, United’s 20‑year‑old centre‑back Leny Yoro, who joined the club from Lille for €62 million in 2024, is on the radar of AC Milan. Calciomercato reports that the Milan side is keen to add depth to its defence, with former United manager Ruben Amorim reportedly willing to pay around €50 million for the France international. Yoro has struggled to cement a first‑team place since his arrival, and a move to the San Siro could offer him more playing time.
Other transfer updates include Liverpool’s lack of interest in Trent Alexander‑Arnold, who has seen limited action at Real Madrid due to competition from Denzel Dumfries and Federico Valverde. Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United have also shown curiosity about AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori and Ruben Loftus‑Cheek, with the Rossoneri open to letting both players leave. Tottenham is also set on a high fee for right‑back Pedro Porro, who remains open to a La Liga return despite extending his contract, but the club has ruled out a mid‑season exit.
Additional rumours involve Manchester City’s continued interest in Chelsea’s Malo Gusto, Arsenal’s planned contract extension talks with goalkeeper David Raya, and Liverpool and Real Madrid’s pursuit of Brighton defender Luka Vušković. Juventus are watching Manchester City’s Rayan Aït‑Nouri, while Barcelona is preparing to negotiate a new deal with defender Gerard Martín and keep tabs on PSG midfielder Vitinha. RB Leipzig is likely to activate a €28 million option to sign Christopher Nkunku permanently after his successful return from loan, and Napoli is gearing up for a January push to add midfield and striking options.
With the summer transfer window approaching, clubs are busy finalising their squads and exploring potential departures. Karl’s future at Bayern remains uncertain, and Yoro’s next destination could be Milan if the transfer materialises. Fans will need to stay tuned for official confirmations as clubs move closer to the deadline.
