Neymar → Barcelona?

Fee: >€160m

Credibility: ★★★☆☆

RUMOUR: Neymar desperate for return to Barcelona with 'constant calls' to Nou Camp (AS)

If everything happens for a reason, then these nonstop reports on Neymar wanting a Barcelona return should be taken into account.

Perhaps Neymar finds it too easy in France's Ligue 1 with every domestic trophies won last season, and also wants to leave Kylian Mbappe's shadow.

Gonzalo Higuain → Chelsea? + Alvaro Morata → Juventus?

Credibility: ★★★★☆

RUMOUR: Morata & Higuain swap deal 'agreed' with 'Spaniard to join AC Milan' (MediaSet)

Italian source Sport MediaSet says both Chelsea and Juventus have agreed to do the swap business and it makes sense after all.

Morata was a super sub for Juventus from 2014 to 2016 and Higuain worked with Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri at Napoli before. What's more, AC Milan want to cut short the 18-month loan deal for the Argentine.

Romelu Lukaku → Juventus?

Fee: Not known yet

Credibility: ★☆☆☆☆

RUMOUR: Juventus 'set to make move for Man United striker Lukaku'

Is Mino Raiola that good at negoatiating? One can believe Paul Pogba is under the discussion between the super agent and Juventus, but Lukaku seems an odd topic.

Calcio Mercato believes the Belgian international is seen as the replacement for Mario Mandzukic, but honestly who is the better striker?

Douglas Costa → Manchester United?

Fee: >€60m

Credibility: ★★★☆☆

RUMOUR: Man Utd make sensational €60m bid for Juventus winger Costa (Calciomercato)

Both The Sun and Calcio Mercato report that Manchester United target Douglas Costa and see the €60m bid rejected already.

Costa has been a bench warmer for Juventus this season and the last Brazilian to join Man United is... Fred - another bench warmer.

Aaron Ramsey → Inter? Bayern Munich? Juventus?

Fee: Free in the summer

Credibility: ★★★★☆ (Juve) / ★★★☆☆ (Bayern) / ★☆☆☆☆ (Inter)

RUMOURS:

Juve 'give Ramsey €10m-per-year salary' to sign him on free transfer

Inter have a verbal agreement for Ramsey next summer (La Repubblica)

One thing for sure is Ramsey is leaving Arsenal. The 27-year-old is a proven Premier League player during his ten years at North London.

Many European giants are keeping tab on him and it appears that Serie A champions Juventus are leading the race.

Jadon Sancho → Real Madrid? Barcelona? Bayern Munich?

Fee: Not known yet

Credibility: ★★☆☆☆ (Madrid) / ★★☆☆☆ (Barca) / ★☆☆☆☆ (Bayern)

RUMOUR: Real Madrid, Barcelona & Bayern Munich closely monitoring Sancho (Marca)

Sancho is performing magic with Dortmund at Bundesliga after leaving Manchester City in 2017.

It is not surprising if he catches the eyes of Real Madrid, Barcelona and co., but who can afford the 18-year-old who looks as good as Kylian Mbappe?

Marcus Rashford → Real Madrid? Barcelona? AC Milan?

Credibility: ★☆☆☆☆ (Madrid) / ★☆☆☆☆ (Barca) / ☆☆☆☆☆ (Milan)

RUMOURS:

Rashford 'wanted by Barca and Madrid' as his future remains uncertain (Express)

Milan reportedly considering a surprise swoop for Man Utd striker Rashford

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is a manager that gives young players chances to play and Rashford is set for a major role under his guidance.

Given his growing status at Manchester United, it is almost impossible if the club would allow him to leave for either Real Madrid or Barcelona.

Brahim Diaz → Real Madrid?

Fee: €15m

Credibility: ★★★★★

RUMOURS: Madrid reach an agreement to sign Man City's Brahim Diaz for €15m (Marca)

It's time for the professor to return to football! Gennaro Gattuso has his Milan team suffer five-game winless run, further dropping out of Serie A top 4 and even eliminated from Europa League.

With former Arsenal chief Ivan Gazidis working as Milan CEO now, it becomes clear that Wenger is a top target for the Serie A giants.
