Done Deal:Liverpool has signed £116M Premier League star who is Man United and Chelsea target
Liverpool’s interest in Crystal Palace’s standout winger Michael Olise may hit a snag as reports indicate the player has a preference for Manchester United.
Despite Liverpool and Chelsea’s readiness to activate Olise’s £60 million release clause following his impressive performances, Olise’s lifelong support for Manchester United could tilt his decision in their favour.
Olise, who had previously rejected a move to Chelsea last summer despite a £35 million release clause being triggered, chose to extend his stay at Selhurst Park.
His decision to remain was quickly followed by a new contract that increased his release fee. His continued form this season, with nine goal contributions in just 12 appearances despite injuries, has made him a hot property in the transfer market.
Meanwhile, Liverpool continues to explore options to strengthen their squad, and Olise had been identified as a potential target to enhance their attacking lineup.
However, according to Football Transfers, with the player reportedly leaning towards Manchester United, Liverpool may need to reassess their transfer strategies.
In the January transfer window, journalist Ben Jacobs said to “keep an eye on” Olise to Liverpool but it doesn’t look a likely transfer now.
The situation around Olise emerges amidst Liverpool’s broader ambitions to refresh their forward options, especially considering uncertainties around other player movements and performance inconsistencies.
As the summer transfer window approaches, Liverpool may have to look beyond Olise to secure the necessary reinforcements to maintain their competitive edge.

Bayer Leverkusen chief executive Fernando Carro has admitted that Xabi Alonso could end up managing Real Madrid amid links with Liverpool.
Alonso was heavily linked with becoming the next Liverpool manager when Jurgen Klopp leaves at the end of the season. The former Reds midfielder recently guided Leverkusen to their first-ever Bundesliga title, beating Bayern Munich in the process.
That success led to Alonso being linked with being Klopp’s successor at Anfield as well as replacing Thomas Tuchel at Bayern Munich. However, Alonso confirmed last month that he would be remaining in charge at Leverkusen beyond this season and would not be moving to Liverpool.
Carro has spoken about Alonso’s future, where he has also been linked with managing Real Madrid at some point in the future. The Leverkusen CEO has admitted that he believes Alonso will take charge at the Santiago Bernabeu at some point in his career.

“It is possible that at some point in his career as a coach, he [Alonso] ends up managing Real Madrid, yes,” Carro told Spanish news outlet AS.
Carro went on to acknowledge that several clubs were “interested” in appointing Alonso as manager. The Leverkusen chief also admitted that it’s still possible that Alonso could manage one of his former teams in the future, which include Liverpool, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.
“There are many interested clubs, it is true, which does not mean that in the future he [Alonso] cannot coach some of those that have been named, especially his former teams as a player,” said Carro. “But he feels at ease here; if not, he wouldn’t continue.
“We will maintain our ambition next year and play in the Champions League. Obviously, we are very happy with it. It’s a good situation for all parties and I think we both win.
“This is a project that we started with him and it is very important that it continues. But Xabi also knows what he has at Leverkusen as a club, not only do we know what we have with him as a coach. It is good for both of us to continue working together.”

‘Control yourself!’ – Angry Pep Guardiola fires Rodri warning after crazy red card in Man City’s win over Nottingham Forest

Pep Guardiola admitted he was angry with Rodri after the midfielder was sent off against Nottingham Forest and faces a suspension.
Guardiola furious with Rodri’s red card
Midfielder suspended for three games
Told to control his emotions
WHAT HAPPENED? Rodri was shown a straight red card for grabbing Morgan Gibbs-White by the neck at the start of the second half in the 2-0 win over Forest. Although City survived playing 45 minutes with 10 men, they will miss the influential midfielder for the next three games, including the blockbuster clash at early title rivals Arsenal.
WHAT THEY SAID: “Hopefully Rodri will learn. Rodri has to control himself and his emotions,” Guardiola told a press conference. “This is what he has to do. I can get a yellow card, but Rodri cannot get a yellow card, I do not play. The guys inside [the pitch] have to be careful. I cannot control myself, but I do not play. Soon I will be in the stands because I will get enough yellow cards.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE: City dug deep in front of a fired-up home crowd to record their sixth straight Premier League win, equalling their best ever start to a season. Guardiola praised his side’s performance and their reaction to going down to 10 men. “I thought the way we played in the first-half was amazing, against a difficult side for the physicality, the pace they have up front,” he said. “An exceptional game in the first-half. Exceptional game in the second for our resilience and our work because we played 51, 52 minutes 10 vs 11 so it was not easy but we were fantastic”

Bayern Munich have been dealt another injury blow ahead of the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie against Arsenal.
ADVERTISEMENT
The German club drew 2-2 with the Gunners in the first leg at Emirates Stadium this week.
That was followed by a 2-0 victory at home to Koln in the Bundesliga, with Raphael Guerreiro and Thomas Muller getting on the scoresheet.
However, Thomas Tuchel is set to be without an important player as result of an injury that was sustained against Koln.
The news will be a source of frustration for Tuchel as Bayern look to finish strongly in what has been a challenging campaign.

Tuchel will be without Kingsley Coman for the second leg against Arsenal due to an adductor muscle issue.
The winger, who featured as a substitute in the first leg against the Gunners, had to be replaced in the 50th minute against Koln.
He told Sky; ‘The big downside to the whole game is the injury to Kingsley Coman. It makes me very sad because I know how hard he worked and how important he is for us. First Serge Gnabry is out, then he and Leroy Sane are doubts [for Wednesday].’
As Tuchel alluded to, Bayern are also set to be without another winger in Serge Gnabry.
Gnabry scored against his former club Arsenal but was then taken off in the 70th minute having suffered a hamstring problem.
Bayern confirmed Gnabry’s absence in an official statement: ‘FC Bayern must do without Serge Gnabry for the time being,’ the club’s statement read.
‘The winger suffered a muscle strain in his left hamstring in the 2-2 draw at Arsenal in the Champions League quarter-final first leg, as confirmed by a scan by the FC Bayern medical department.’

Another winger, Leroy Sane, has been struggling with a pubic bone irritation, which meant that he didn’t feature against Koln. However, Sane expressed hope that he could feature against Arsenal, telling BILD: ‘I hope so. It should work.’

Goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was rested against Koln after recently returning from an adductor injury but he should be able to play against Arsenal.
Commenting on Coman’s injury, Thomas Muller stated that Bayern have had to cope with injury problems at this stage of the season before, such as when Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben were sidelined.
Muller told Sky: ‘It’s not the first time in my time here that we lost important players towards the quarter-finals and semi-finals of the Champions League, that was the case with Rib [Ribéry] and Rob [Robben] from time to time’.

Man City agree personal terms with “elegant” £150,000-a-week target
BY
DAN EMERY
PUBLISHED 9 HOURS AGO
The Cityzens have made a breakthrough.
pep-guardiola-man-city-premier-league
Manchester City were held to a thrilling 3-3 draw against Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League tie in Spain on Tuesday night.
The Cityzens are still competing to land the treble for the second season in succession, as they eye the Premier League and the FA Cup alongside Europe’s major prize.
Despite their continued success on the pitch, Pep Guardiola’s side are already looking at possible targets to improve their playing squad in the upcoming summer transfer window.
City are reportedly eyeing up a swoop to sign a current Premier League star to bolster the Spanish manager’s options in the middle of the park.
Man City agree personal terms with Premier League magician
According to Foot Mercato journalist Santi Aouna, Manchester City have now reached an agreement on personal terms with West Ham United star Lucas Paqueta.
The reporter claims that the Cityzens have ironed out a long-term contract, including the exact duration of the deal and the salary included, with the Brazil international ahead of the summer.
However, Aouna adds that there have not been any talks between the two clubs at this moment in time, which means that a fee has not been agreed.
The post states that Paqueta’s agents are now expecting City and the Hammers to hold negotiations over a deal for the Brazilian wizard at the end of the season, although it does not reveal how much the London-based outfit are set to demand for their star performer.
An agreement on personal terms with the former Lyon maestro does, however, indicate that they already have the green light on the player’s side, which could play into their hands in transfer talks.
West Ham would then know that they have someone who wants to move on this summer, and they may not want to keep an unhappy and unsettled player if City offer a significant fee to secure his services.
Lucas Paqueta’s Premier League form
With his combative and creative performances, the 26-year-old whiz has showcased his quality as an all-round midfielder in the Premier League for the Hammers this season.
Paqueta currently ranks within the top 6% of attacking midfielders in the division for tackles (2.60) per 90, and the top 11% for interceptions (0.77) per 90, which speaks to how hard he works out of possession to win the ball back for his team.
