New Roma boss Jose Mourinho could look to make a move for David de Gea and Renato Sanches, <a href="https://www.corrieredellosport.it/news/calcio/serie-a/roma/2021/05/07-81459878/roma_il_mercato_di_mourinho_tutti_i_possibili_obiettivi" target="_blank">Corriere dello Sport</a> reports. Jorge Mendes, the main representative for both players, has proposed a possible switch to the Serie A side for De Gea, although it remains to be seen if Manchester United will let him go for a low price. As well as Lille midfielder Renato Sanches, Mourinho is also apparently lining up both Andrea Belotti and Mauro Icardi, as he looks for a long-term replacement for Edin Dzeko.

Zinedine Zidane has reacted to talk of Eden Hazard being allowed to leave Real Madrid by pointing out that the Belgian remains tied to a long-term contact and wants to "succeed" in the Spanish capital.

The former Chelsea star's injury struggles&nbsp;have attracted criticism, as has his&nbsp;reaction to Real's Champions League semi-final exit which saw him laughing with former colleagues at Stamford Bridge,&nbsp;but Zidane says there are no plans to part with a proven performer. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/zidane-addresses-hazard-transfer-talk-at-real-madrid-reacts/12nookwzuuv75179v3pkzp0bbl" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Those at the Allianz Arena have&nbsp;history when it comes to luring top talent away from domestic rivals. Haaland will already be on their radar, as&nbsp;transfer talk rages around him&nbsp;heading towards another window, but an extended stay with BVB is being mooted for the prolific 20-year-old as he continues to weigh up his options. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/hitzfeld-explains-how-haaland-will-become-a-bayern-munich-target-/ea4jqpsvrsni19qtdggb4xtl9" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Bayern Munich will "not make any expensive transfers" this summer, according to club president Herbert Hainer, amid rumours that the Bundesliga heavyweights could make a move for Inter star Achraf Hakimi. The Bavarian side have been linked with a major-money move for the Morocco man, who has been in superb form this season for the Nerazzurri. But as speculation grows - fanned by the player's agent this week - the club's president has now moved to shut down chatter on a swoop for Hakimi, or indeed any other expensive player. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/bayern-president-hainer-rules-out-expensive-transfers-amid-links-/1ev0l9amddh751j7naoxj55jqb" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal here!</a>

The 27-year-old, a member of the Blackpool side that earned promotion from League Two in 2017, originally left Scotland in 2015 after seeing his chances restricted.
