According to Sport 1’s podcast Die Bayern-Woche, Bayern Munich is reportedly keen on selling Sadio Mane during the upcoming summer transfer window.

It is suggested that the Senegalese forward is no longer part of manager Thomas Tuchel’s plans following a somewhat underwhelming campaign.

Bayern Munich is hoping to persuade Newcastle to acquire the 31-year-old, as the Magpies are among the few clubs capable of matching Mane’s current salary of €20 million per year.

However, despite the potential transfer speculation, Mane himself is reportedly keen to remain at Bayern and prove his worth to his critics.

In his debut season with Bayern Munich, the former Liverpool forward scored 12 goals and provided five assists in 38 appearances.

Despite previous expectations of his departure, Napoli’s Victor Osimhen has hinted that he may be open to staying at the club for another season.

The Nigerian striker played a pivotal role in leading Napoli to the Serie A title, earning hero status among fans with his impressive tally of 31 goals this season.

Osimhen’s exceptional performances have caught the attention of several top clubs, including Manchester United, Chelsea, and Real Madrid.

These clubs have now entered the race to secure his signature. However, Napoli has set a high price tag of £130 million for the talented forward, indicating their intention to retain him.

Asked about his future, he told DAZN: “I don’t know, the President has to decide that.

“I love the people of Napoli, they have shown me so much love. For me, I don’t mind, the president decides and I will just go with the flow.

“I appreciate the Neapolitans a lot, they deserve this and hopefully we’ll have many more trophies to come.”

Chelsea Football Club has officially announced the signing of Kendry Paez, the talented midfielder from Independiente del Valle. The Ecuadorian player will join Chelsea after he turns 18, and he has already established himself as one of the most promising and creative young talents in South America.

In their statement, Chelsea emphasized Paez’s exceptional abilities, highlighting his skilful dribbling, vision, and technique, which enable him to unlock defences with his precise passing. His arrival at Chelsea further strengthens the club’s commitment to nurturing and developing young talent.

“The Ecuadorian, who will join Chelsea after his 18th birthday, has already built a reputation in South America as one of the brightest and most creative young talents around, thanks to his combination of skilful dribbling along with the vision and technique to open up defences with his passing,” Chelsea said in statement.

“Paez caught the eye by finding the net on his senior debut for his club this year, becoming the youngest debutant and scorer in the Ecuadorian top flight. He has six senior appearances to his name this season in addition to making his continental debut in a 2-1 Copa Libertadores win over Corinthians at the start of May.

“He has also starred at the Under-17 Copa America, registering two goals and six assists while captaining his country, before getting another goal and three assists as he started all four of Ecuador’s matches at this summer’s Under-20 World Cup.

“He was previously named as the top talent at the 2022 Next Generation Trophy, a prestigious youth tournament in Austria featuring clubs from all over the world.”
