Bayern Munich’s rising talent, Lee Hyunju, has signed with Portuguese club FC Arouca, but it wasn’t the transfer itself that grabbed headlines. Instead, it was the club’s unique and hilarious announcement that went viral on the internet as it was inspired by Astronomer CEO, Andy Byron's kiss cam moment, at a Coldplay concert.
Bayern Munich are set to launch a renewed attempt to sign Luis Díaz from Liverpool, with a second offer reportedly on the cards. While Díaz remains with the Liverpool squad during their pre-season tour in Asia, discussions surrounding his potential departure have intensified behind the scenes.
Liverpool are set to soften their stance on Luis Diaz and accept a bid of under €80 million (£69.9m/$93.9m) from Bayern Munich. The Colombian forward, who still has two years remaining on his current deal, has already expressed his desire to leave Anfield this summer, with his preferred destination being the German champions.
Chelsea are edging closer to landing Dutch sensation Xavi Simons, with the Blues reportedly preparing an opening bid after learning RB Leipzig’s €70 million (£60.7m/$81.5m) valuation. Talks between the Blues, Simons, and his camp have been positive, with all parties optimistic that a transfer can be actualized this summer. The 21-year-old is keen on a Premier League switch this summer.
