Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Havertz open to Man Utd move

Having turned down a move to&nbsp;Real Madrid&nbsp;himself as a youngster, former&nbsp;Chelsea&nbsp;defender Mario Melchiot believes&nbsp;that&nbsp;Rennes&nbsp;wonderkid Eduardo Camavinga should move to Santiago Bernabeu&nbsp;right away if he feels that he can handle the&nbsp;spotlight in the Spanish capital. Seventeen-year-old midfielder Camavinga has established himself as one of the most promising players in world football, and&nbsp;placed fifth in&nbsp;Goal's&nbsp;annual NxGn countdown of the top 50 teenager footballers on the planet in April. Rennes president Nicolas Holveck has insisted that Camavinga will remain at Roazhon Park for another season, but Madrid are reportedly keen on signing the youngster this summer. Melchiot&nbsp;told&nbsp;<a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/camavinga-ignore-critics-join-real-madrid-now/13z1dy1b4x4xf1d86suenip0pg" target="_blank">Goal</a>.&nbsp;"Let me tell you something, as a player just do what’s right for you and not listen to what people tell you. "If you feel like it isn’t the right move, then stay where you are. I think you should always consider your development. The team you go to should make you better and you should make the team better."

In this day and age, to have stayed 13 years and logged more than 400 games, most of them at the highest level in the country, is astonishing. “But football always moves on, Chris accepted that. He is disappointed not to have played more this season but he has not given up yet on making a contribution over these last nine games and has committed to finishing off the campaign doing everything he can to help us achieve our aims.”

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is the latest star name to consider a move away from Arsenal because the club are not competing for major trophies and have a “decision-making policy problem”, says Charlie Nicholas. Speculation continues to suggest that the&nbsp;prolific Gabonese striker could soon be lured away from Emirates Stadium&nbsp;as he approaches the final 12 months of his current contract. Various new clubs&nbsp;have been mooted, with the general consensus being that&nbsp;Aubameyang wants to challenge for major silverware as he approaches his 31st birthday. Former Gunners striker Nicholas told&nbsp;Sky Sports:&nbsp;“They have been buying wrong and the players then realise that they are not a threat to win the Premier League, they are out of the&nbsp;Champions League, so the hierarchy have got it all wrong. “They get there, they love the club, but then they realise they aren’t going to win any trophies – what’s the point, I want to move on to win trophies. “If Aubameyang does go, he’ll want to go to a club that wants to win trophies. It’s the same as what [Robin] van Persie did, it’s what they do. Arsenal haven’t got an identity problem, they have got a decision-making policy problem and it has to be sorted at the top end.” <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/aubameyang-want-out-arsenal-cant-compete-nicholas-slams/1i874julwnzp4142829t2qy43d" target="_blank">You can read his thoughts in full here.</a>

The striker has failed to show up to training since the Italian government cleared football to return, with the 29-year-old previously having aired his concerns over coronavirus pandemic.
