Hull City Manager Sergej Zakirovic believes they need 12-15 signings this summer to compete in the Premier League next season.

sports news Today is a comprehensive interview with the Hull City manager, in which he explains his plans for the summer transfer window.

Hull City Summer Plans

Sergej Zakirovic has become one of the most intriguing coaching stories in European football over the past year, thanks to his immense, unexpected success at Hull.

He took charge of Hull last year with the apparent luxury of remaining in the Championship or at least achieving a comfortable mid-table finish. Instead, they defied expectations and sent them into the playoffs in the first place Defeated Middlesbrough in play-off final.

It means he is now a Premier League manager and faces the difficult task of keeping the Tigers at the top. And to do that, he believes they need a big summer transfer window.

“We have calculated that the core structure of 12 players who have performed this season will remain in place, which means we need 12 to 15 reinforcements,” he said.

“The owner and I talked, but he didn’t say anything about money, we still have to sit down seriously.

“However, we know some information. As winners of the Championship last season, Coventry plan to invest around €40m in reinforcements, but they already have an expensive and strong team with which they have attacked the Premier League for two years.

“Ipswich are reportedly preparing around €80m. For comparison, Sunderland, as a newcomer to the Premier League last summer, invested around €120m in reinforcements and immediately finished seventh after winning the Europa League.”

Spend €120 million like Sunderland?

While Sunderland could be a shining example of how to do it, Zakirovic does not believe Hull will have the same kind of spending power this summer.

He said, “Sunderland is my guiding principle, the club has identified excellent, conditionally, cheap, but very good players, mainly in Belgium and France.”

Getting €120 million of reinforcements… It’s already a dream, I don’t believe we will have that much money, but we’ll see. “Basically, there are no restrictions now, we can compensate.”

Swedish side AIK already have a replacement for Zadok Yohana newcastle united And brighton and hove albion The fight for his signature.

According to the newspaper, AIK are set to receive a huge sum for Zadok Yohana in the coming weeks.

Sport Witness covered a report yesterday Explaining that Newcastle have made a bid of €24 million for the youngster, while Brighton are also believed to be keen on him. Reports elsewhere have also put Chelsea in the mix for him.

The expectation is that he will move on this summer, and AIK are already planning for life without him. According to Aftonbladet, they have already started considering potential signings.

According to their information, Elias Pihlström is one of the players that AIK has put at the top of the list of potential signings. He has been discussed internally and the club’s sporting management has held several meetings regarding the player. He fits well into their recruitment strategy.

brighton benefits

But the fact that AIK is already keeping an eye on him shows that they believe Zadok Yohanna will be moving on before too long. This bodes well for Newcastle and Brighton.

While the Magpies appear to be at the front of the queue at the moment after their €24 million bid, Brighton are unlikely to be out of the picture.

In fact, they hold a huge advantage over Newcastle. They can point to a proven track record of developing young players over the years. Actually, a Swedish youth Yasin Ayari is in their team for the 2026 World Cup.

Ultimately the decision has to be taken by John. Meanwhile, it seems that AIK are already planning for his departure as the Premier League circles.

newcastle His association with Gabriel Make continues as the Grêmio teenager’s profile continues to rise across Europe following his increased involvement in the Brazilian club’s first team.

The 18-year-old attacking midfielder has gradually become part of the senior rotation this season and is starting to attract more attention with each appearance.

Clubs in England, Portugal, Spain and now France are keeping a close eye on the situation as Gremio prepares for another major transfer battle around one of its biggest talents.

Last year, Shakhtar Donetsk offered around €15m (£12.9m) for Make, only for the move to fail after resistance from both the player and Grêmio.

chelsea There was also a strong push at one stage, with reports in the Brazilian earlier mentioning a package that could reach €24m (£20.6m) including bonuses.

That background is helping shape Grêmio’s current strategy.

Gremio took steps to strengthen its position

according to espn brazilThe Brazilian side are now close to agreeing a contract renewal with MEC until September 2031.

Their current deal runs until September 2027, and there was growing concern internally about losing benefits as time went on. The renewal push appears to be designed to avoid exactly the same scenario before the next transfer window opens.

Importantly, this does not mean that Gremio wants to remove him from the market.

Instead, it looks like the club are trying to put themselves in a stronger negotiating position before a serious offer is made.

That also fits with it Recent Comments Grêmio vice-president Antonio Dutra Júnior insisted that no official bid had been made yet, but openly admitted that the club saw Meck as a player capable of generating “huge value” in the future.

It is getting bigger.

Newcastle will remain involved as soon as PSG enters

are newcastle Once again among the mentioned clubs Regarding make

The Magpies are actively monitoring emerging South American talent and have featured prominently in Brazilian reporting about the player. Make fits the type of high-upside signings Newcastle have sought in recent windows.

However, the race is becoming more crowded.

Villarreal, Sevilla, Porto and Shakhtar remain interested, but Paris Saint-Germain are now the latest heavyweight name to enter the picture.

The emergence of PSG is significant because it changes the market dynamics around MAC. Grêmio already valued him at between €15m and €20m (£12.9m-£17.2m), but the increasing level of competition suggests the Brazilian side believe they may be able to move even more than that.

now big sales objective

Rather than rushing towards a sale due to contractual pressure, Grêmio is now focusing on creating a controlled bidding war.

Newcastle, Chelsea and PSG have all been linked at various stages, with the club increasingly viewing Meck as a player capable of generating one of their biggest sales in recent years.

For Newcastle, that means the opportunity is alive – but both prices and competition are moving rapidly upwards.
