Napoli and Kvaratskhelia face stalemate in contract talks
Negotiations between Napoli and star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia have hit a standstill, with significant differences in salary expectations, according to Calciomercato. The Georgian international’s representatives are seeking a raise to €8 million per season, while Napoli remain firm at €5 million. The 23-year-old has rapidly become one of Napoli’s most valued players, which has intensified efforts to secure his future, although the current impasse has complicated discussions.
Al Hilal considering replacing Neymar with Ronaldo
Saudi Arabian giants Al Hilal are reportedly contemplating a bold move to end Neymar’s contract and replace him with Al Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo, according to Sport. The potential decision reflects Al Hilal’s concerns over Neymar's recent injury history, with the club now reluctant to include him in their January roster. Neymar’s recurring fitness issues have raised doubts within the club about his long-term impact, despite the €90 million spent to bring him from Paris Saint-Germain earlier this year.
Yamal and Balde tried convincing Williams to join Barcelona
Nico Williams has joked about how the “b*stards of Barcelona” Lamine Yamal and Alejandro Balde “didn’t help” him during a summer transfer saga.
Williams has told La Revuelta of how he handled that situation, as supposed friends sought to wind him up by asking incessant questions: “It was difficult. On top of that, the 'bastards' of [Barca] Lamine and Balde and others didn't help. They would say to me ‘brother come now, come now’.”
Bayern draw up four-striker list to challenge Kane
Bayern Munich have reportedly drawn up a four-man list of strikers as they look to bring in another big-money No.9 to challenge Harry Kane.
Bayern are said to be identifying potential competition and long-term cover for Kane. A trio of rivals currently plying their trade in Germany are, according to Sport Bild, registering on recruitment radars at the Allianz Arena.
Omar Marmoush has become a prolific presence for Eintracht Frankfurt, while 21-year-old Slovenia international Benjamin Sesko has shown at RB Leipzig why he is considered to be such a hot prospect – with club colleague Lois Openda also catching the eye. Swedish sensation Viktor Gyokeres is the other striker in Bayern’s sights.
