The summer transfer window is officially open, and it’s already boiling hot. Forget Fabrizio — the real king of exclusives is back.

The rest of the world found out after Mauricio!
So buckle up. You’re reading the weekly Transfer Rasza — where we break the hottest transfer news, rumors, and confirmed deals.
🔴 Arsenal: Edu’s Successor Comes In Hot
Arsenal's summer business has kicked off with a bang. Sporting director Bertha, newly appointed from Atlético Madrid, is not wasting any time. His track record speaks volumes — always working with a minimum of two top strikers every season. And this year is no different.
The club is now very close to signing Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting CP. Personal terms are agreed. The only thing left is the final negotiation with the Portuguese club, who are open to selling for around €70-75M including bonuses, down from the €100M release clause. Gyökeres already had an emotional farewell in his last match — this is happening!
Other targets include Gonçalo Ramos from PSG and Matheus Cunha, but Gyökeres is clearly the priority.
🏃♂️ Left Wing Reinforcement: Rodrigo in the Crosshairs
Arsenal are dreaming big. Rumors suggest they’re targeting Rodrygo from Real Madrid — imagine a frontline of Gyökeres, Saka, and Rodrygo. Madrid might cash in, especially if Rodrygo won’t be a guaranteed starter under incoming coach Xabi Alonso. Arsenal and Man City are monitoring the situation closely, with Madrid valuing him at around €100M.
✅ Confirmed Deal: Zubimendi to Arsenal
Martín Zubimendi will officially join Arsenal — just as predicted months ago. While Real Madrid had eyes on him, Arsenal acted swiftly and sealed the deal early. He’ll be the club’s first confirmed signing of the summer window, adding stability and quality to the midfield.
🧤 Goalkeeper Situation
Arteta isn’t done — he’s looking to sign a backup goalkeeper to challenge David Raya. Top target? Joan García from Espanyol. The 21-year-old Spanish keeper has a release clause of €21M and has been on Arsenal’s radar for years.
🚪 Exits from the Emirates
Jorginho is leaving as a free agent, with a deal almost done with Flamengo in Brazil. Thomas Partey may renew his contract, but talks are ongoing.
🔵 Manchester City: Rebuild Mode Starts Now
Kevin De Bruyne has likely played his last game for City. The Belgian midfielder was reportedly told he is no longer in City’s plans. Several offers are on the table — from MLS side Inter Miami, Saudi clubs like Al Nassr and Al Ittihad, and even Premier League clubs like Aston Villa and Liverpool. There’s also interest from Napoli and Inter Milan.
Meanwhile, City are busy reinforcing: a huge bid is in for Omar Marmoush (€75-80M), and negotiations continue for Reijnders from AC Milan. Other midfield options include Giovanni Reyna, Gibbs-White, and even Florian Wirtz, who is also being pursued by Liverpool, Real Madrid, and Bayern Munich.
🔴 Liverpool: Silent No More
Unlike last summer, Liverpool are serious this year. The club is fully backing new manager Arne Slot. First up? Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen. The flying Dutchman has a release clause of just €35M and can play both as a right-back and winger — a potential long-term Salah replacement.
Frimpong played alongside Wirtz at Leverkusen — could Liverpool grab both? With Bayern, Madrid, and City in the mix, it won’t be easy. But the Reds are definitely active this summer.
💎 Final Thought: Where Will Wirtz Land?
Florian Wirtz is the hottest gem on the market. Liverpool want him. City have made a massive offer. Madrid are waiting for Xabi Alonso’s approval. Bayern Munich are pressuring Leverkusen as the Bundesliga rival. Leverkusen could ask for up to €150M if he stays in Germany — or €100M if he moves abroad.
