- Manchester United will provide "big competition" in the race to sign Sporting CP's Viktor Gyökeres next summer, reports Christian Falk (via CaughtOffside). The Swedish forward has been on fire this season, scoring 16 goals in 11 league games to date. Falk reports that United hold a key advantage over other clubs who wish to sign Gyökeres, as incoming manager Rúben Amorim has already worked with the 26-year-old this season at Sporting. The Red Devils also retain an interest in RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Šeško, who is expected to change clubs next summer.
- Bayern Munich are closely monitoring Jonathan David's situation at Lille as the German club look to bolster their forward line, reports Florian Plettenberg. The 24-year-old will likely be available on a free transfer next summer, as his current Lille deal expires in 2025. David is one of several strikers on Bayern's list of targets who could provide some much-needed competition for England's Harry Kane. Almost all top European clubs are said to be interested in signing David next summer, who has scored seven goals in Ligue 1 this season.
