ARSENAL

With regard to Leroy Sane and a possible reunion with former Manchester City employee Mikel Arteta at Arsenal, some always thought, “Ah well, they know each other”, and so perhaps this could be a little like Vincent Kompany and Sane who played together. However, I’ve heard that the connection is not so strong. Leroy Sane always had a few problems at City because of his training mentality. So, Arteta and Sane are not so close. I’ve been asking Leroy if he still has Arteta’s mobile number and he said, ‘No.’ It’s not so big an advantage that they simply know each other. We’ll have to see if he gets a new contract with Bayern Munich. I have the feeling that Sane would accept less than the €20m he’s currently on. With Manchester United and Arsenal, there’s still nothing concrete.

ASTON VILLA

I heard that Aston Villa had their scouts at the match against Mainz v Borussia Dortmund (which Mainz won 3-1). So you see they are concretely interested in Nadiem Amiri and the player himself would like to make this step, as he wants to return to the German national team. That’s why he perhaps needs a bigger club than Mainz. I’ve heard the club will let him go for a fee of €10m or more, not less. There’s no chance of a winter move I’m afraid, he’ll have to stay until the summer. But perhaps with Villa’s interest, there can be a little story for the future.

BAYERN MUNICH

As we mentioned in the last column, Alphonso Davies spoke in the dressing room about a new contract offer from Bayern. At this current point in time, he’s yet to sign it, so Bayern are working on a shortlist of replacements, as they think he’ll leave. On the shortlist are two names: RB Leipzig’s David Raum and AC Milan’s Theo Hernandez (whose brother, Lucas, was at Bayern). Bayern Munich, notably, already knocked on Theo’s door in the summer. So, you see that a transfer exit is very likely for Davies. Real Madrid, as things currently stand, are still a little bit angry about the transfer poker. The agents are dealing with other clubs, which could be all the chance Manchester United need to come to the table. However, I heard that United are still waiting on Ruben Amorim and what he’s planning to do in the January window. He wants to work with the squad first and then make a decision. After that, they could get really serious about Alphonso Davies.

💬 Manchester United fans: What should be Ruben Amorim’s biggest priority in the transfer market? Have your say below!
