Arsenal eye £60m Monaco star, Jadon Sancho could move to Serie A, Atletico Madrid going 'all out' for Spurs' Cristian Romero - Euro Transfer News

Rumours continue to rage in the summer transfer market, with the onset of July always a vital time in the footballing financial year. In Wednesday's round-up of European transfer news, Jadon Sancho could be set for a move to Italy, Arsenal are considering a double winger swoop, while Atletico Madrid look determined to bring in Spurs defensive lynchpin Cristian Romero.

Sancho could move to Italy

Jadon Sancho has had "positive contacts" with Juventus over a potential move to the Serie A side, says Gianluca Di Marzio.

Sancho, who won the UEFA Conference League title last season with Chelsea, is not in the US for the FIFA Club World Cup, instead looking for a move away from Manchester United to reignite his career.

Di Marzio writes: "Juventus' transfer market continues, moving on multiple fronts. After reaching a basic agreement last night [Tuesday] with Jonathan David, the Bianconeri are pushing for Jadon Sancho.

"There have been positive contacts with the player, so will continue to work on him even after having closed the arrival of the former Lille striker [David].

"Juve have already had contact in recent weeks regarding Sancho, and are insisting on strengthening the wings.

"Sancho would be open to a transfer to Juventus after the failed agreement to renew his loan with Chelsea."

Arsenal in for £60m Monaco star

Arsenal could bolster their wide areas with the signing of French winger Maghnes Akliouche, says L'Equipe.

The Gunners, who confirmed the signing of Kepa Arrizabalaga on Tuesday, could be set for a double winger swoop as Ademola Lookman remains "an option".

"Arsenal are particularly interested in AS Monaco attacking midfielder Maghnes Akliouche," the report begins.

"While The Gunners' priority in attack remains Sporting's Swedish striker Viktor Gyokeres, for whom negotiations are progressing well, the London club have also targeted Monaco's Maghnes Akliouche.

"The 23-year-old attacking midfielder, whose agent - former Swedish player Hasan Cetinkaya - is the same as Gyokeres', is high on the list of players likely to compete with Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli on the wings of Arsenal's attack.

"However, the club do not want to release him from the last three years of his contract for less than €70 million.

"Still on the attacking front, The Gunners have also made Nigerian international Ademola Lookman an option."

Atleti going 'all out' for Romero

Cristian Romero was one of Spurs' defensive cornerstones last season under former boss Ange Postecoglou, but he is being pursued by Atletico Madrid, AS reports.

"Atletico Madrid are willing to go all out to bring in Tottenham defender Cuti Romero, all to satisfy Diego Simeone and his expressed desire for the defender," the article states.

"The Argentine is Simeone's request, and Atletico Madrid will do almost anything to get him to wear the red and white jersey.

"The Metropolitano club are willing to pay €55 million for the player, plus another €15 million in variables. Tottenham is asking for €70 million for the 27-year-old defender, who has two more seasons left at the English club."

Asensio to Fenerbahce?

Marco Asensio starred with Aston Villa in the second half of last season on a loan deal from Paris Saint-Germain, but now could see his career continue in Turkey.

L'Equipe's report reads: "Fenerbahce are not only negotiating with PSG to permanently sign defender Milan Skriniar.

"The Turkish club has also sent a €15 million offer to the Parisian club for the proposed transfer of Marco Asensio.

"The Spaniard is coming off a successful loan spell at Aston Villa (21 matches, 8 goals, 1 assist) and is set to leave Paris this summer, where he doesn't feature in Luis Enrique's plans.

"The former Madrid player must now make the decision whether or not to move to Istanbul.

"Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho is trying to convince him to do so."
