AC Milan have tabled a new offer for Brighton's left-back Pervis Estupinan, but it still falls short of their €20 million (£17m/$23m) valuation of the Ecuadorian.
AC Milan have reportedly begun preliminary talks with Brighton over a summer move for Pervis Estupinan, dealing a fresh blow to Manchester United’s transfer hopes. The Serie A giants are searching for a new left-back after selling Theo Hernandez and have identified the Ecuador international as a top target. The Red Devils had held discussions but are now at risk of missing out.
Joao Pedro has reportedly completed his Chelsea medical in the United States, with the Blues ready to finalise a £60 million ($82.6m) deal with Brighton. The 23-year-old is set to sign a contract until 2032, and could be thrown straight into action at the Club World Cup, as Enzo Maresca accelerates efforts to strengthen his squad during the tournament.
Joao Pedro has made his preference clear amid a high-profile tug-of-war between Chelsea and Newcastle. The £60 million-rated Brighton star is leaning toward a move to Stamford Bridge, with Chelsea intensifying negotiations after their initial £58 million bid was rebuffed by the Seagulls. The Brazilian forward is now the Blues’ top target after they seal the deal for Jamie Gittens.
Chelsea and Newcastle United learned about Joao Pedro's asking price after the Magpies saw an ambitious £50 million ($68m) offer rejected by Brighton. Despite signing Liam Delap from Ipswich, the Blues are still looking for more forwards, while Eddie Howe is yet to complete his first signing of the summer transfer window.
Newcastle United have seen a bold £50 million ($68m) offer for Brighton star Joao Pedro rejected, with Chelsea also circling the Brazilian forward. The Magpies are expected to return with an improved bid, but face stiff competition in the market for one of the Premier League’s most versatile and in-demand attackers.
Newcastle United’s summer transfer window has hit a significant snag after three transfer bids, amounting to a combined £120 million ($165m), were rejected. The Magpies, eager to bolster their squad ahead of a return to the Champions League, had targeted Nottingham Forest’s Anthony Elanga, Brighton & Hove Albion’s Joao Pedro, and Burnley’s James Trafford. However, none of their initial offers have succeeded.
