Cologne star Sead El Mala has told teammates he is on holiday this summer brentford offer more than now brighton and Hove Albion.

Sport Bild reports that El Mala has told teammates that Brentford are prepared to match Cologne’s €50m asking price this summer.

Brentford step forward

The newspaper reports that there is a growing feeling within the Cologne team that Said Al Mala will not be there next season. The 19-year-old player is now on the verge of a move to the Premier League.

According to information from Sport Bild, he has given a clear indication to some teammates in the locker room that he will leave after one year at the club. He has made it clear that there is a club willing to pay Cologne’s €50m asking price.

That club appears to be Brentford. Reports first linked them in April. The Bees are now on the brink of qualifying for Europe, leading to a ‘serious step’.

The offer they have made is said to be more than that of Brighton. The winger could earn up to €4m in his first year with the Bees.

brighton frustration

Meanwhile, it appears that Brighton have missed out on the signature of Said El Mala despite chasing the signature of Said El Mala for a year. Talks with Cologne have made no progress.

Their next offer would also be well below the €50m expected by the German side. Sporting director Thomas Kessler and team planner Tim Steadten have not discussed the move with Brighton’s management.

Indeed, the Seagulls have been left fuming because neither the player nor his mother Sabrina, who now represents him, have made a clear commitment. Promises of talks were made with Colón, but he never stressed to Colón that Brighton was his priority.

Now the German side is expecting war. It appears Brentford are prepared to spend big to secure a deal. And behind the scenes, El Mala is making it clear that this move could go ahead.

Galatasaray are plotting an ambitious move liverpool Captain Virgil van Dijk and his €11m per year salary will be on par.

Fotomaç reports that The Turkish side are waiting for the green light before making an official move for the Liverpool defender.

Galatasaray targets Liverpool captain

Fotomac reported that Galatasaray have already started their transfer preparations for next season. The plan is to strengthen their defence, and Virgil van Dijk is the star name they want.

The Liverpool centre-back would be a replacement for one of the two current options, Davinson Sanchez and Abdulkerim Bardaki.

The 34-year-old is a dream signing for President Dersun Ozbek, and there is belief a deal can be done. Van Dijk has one year left on his deal at Anfield and will consider his options if he risks losing his place in Arne Slott’s team next season.

The Dutchman is more than aware that he now faces the ‘last important contract’ of his career. Galatasaray plan to contact him soon and president Dursun Ozbek will be ‘closely involved’ in the process.

The feeling in Turkey is that Van Dijk is ready to play for Galatasaray. He has faced them in the Champions League this season and impressed.

He currently earns €11m per year at Liverpool after taxes. Galatasaray are ready to match him to lure him to the Super Lig next season. If the 34-year-old gives the go-ahead, action will be taken ‘immediately’ at the end of the season.

turkish optimism

Now, here at Sport Witness, we would urge caution. It’s a classic in the genre of Turkish optimism with one of their clubs signing a major European star.

In a summer where Liverpool are losing Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson, while Alisson could also leave, it would be a big decision to let Virgil van Dijk go as well.

The whole idea is also based on the theory that Van Dijk could lose his place next season. Even at 34, this is not possible unless massive changes occur.

This does not mean that it is not possible by any means. But we would urge caution for now about any such transfers actually happening.

of liverpool Alisson has been consistently pushed as a target for Serie A clubs by the Italian media. The deal is now proving more difficult than initially thought.

Earlier in March, the goalkeeper signed a new deal at Anfield, tying him down until the end of next season.

Temporarily, this silenced much of the discussion about his future. Soon, this escalated once again as Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti appeared keen to reunite with the Brazilian.

last week, sports witness The cover claims the goalkeeper would indeed be keen to return to his ex-Roma manager. Talks took place and Juve also became optimistic about the signing.

Now, it seems that optimism has been replaced by pessimism and Liverpool could keep Alisson.

Many discussions were held for Alison

Today, tuttosport Let it be clear that doubts are growing in Turin regarding the signing of the 33-year-old player.

Ideally, Spalletti would want Alisson at the club. In fact, he sees him as a dream target, with Mattia Perin and Michele Di Gregorio likely to leave the Old Lady in the summer.

Juve have attempted to meet the manager’s demands by holding talks with Alisson’s squad. They now realize that the deal is more complicated than initially thought.

Alisson earns €8m per season and will demand a significant signing-on fee. This would also include agent fees, with Liverpool themselves demanding €15m to let the Brazilian leave.

The goalkeeper’s team has had several discussions with Juve and now it seems that it will be very difficult for the Turin forward to make a move. Talks were also held with other Serie A clubs but those talks were also met with doubt.

Our opinion: Liverpool would have no objection to this

Alisson may be 33 and has been out of action for the past few weeks, but he still performed well earlier in the campaign.

Giorgi Mamardashvili has also not disappointed anyone but his candidacy as first choice remains unknown. Alisson will only help him grow and his presence will ensure that Georgians are not thrown into the deep end next season.

Furthermore, Liverpool have no need to offer a waiver to let Alisson depart. He has previously been linked to Saudi clubs who would be able to afford his salary and the Reds’ demands. It wouldn’t be the end of the world if Juve didn’t make the move.

VfB Stuttgart’s Angelo Stiller is on chelsea’s Transfer agenda for the summer.

Chelsea could take advantage of the German club’s situation and try to sign him after this season.

The Blues are the latest team to leave the Premier League following a failed attempt by Manchester United last summer.

At the end of March, witness the game Covered claims from Germany The midfielder spurned the Red Devils.

He has been a regular player since joining the Bundesliga side from TSG Hoffenheim in August 2023.

To put this into context, the defensive midfielder has played 125 matches, scoring six goals and 27 assists, including one goal and 10 assists in 44 appearances this season.

His Bundesliga statistics per game this season are as follows:

• Appearances: 28
• Minutes per game: 80
• Intercept: 0.9
• Tackle: 1.3
• Possession won (final third): 0.5
• Ball recovered: 4.9
• Clearance: 1.4
• Blocked Shots: 0.2
• Duel won: 3.9
• Main pass: 1.8

Chelsea in the picture for Stiller

image Now there’s a report on what could happen with Angelo Stiller’s future after this season.

VfB Stuttgart have set a €50m price tag and the Germany international is ‘free to leave’ in the next window.

When discussing his ‘eligible buyers’, Chelsea get a mention as they are one of the clubs who can pay the fee.

Liam Rosenior’s side are keeping a close eye on the player as the Blues prepare for a potential deal.

He now earns £4.5 million per year and his salary could at least double if he moved to England. In other words, ‘qualified buyer’ Chelsea or another top English club could offer him more than €9m per year.

However, it has not been stated whether the Club World Cup winners want or are willing to pay him this figure. For now, the Stamford Bridge side are simply monitoring the German.

If Chelsea decide to make a move, they could take advantage of Stuttgart’s situation.

Bild report that the German club ‘need a big sale’ and that Stiller is one of their main candidates.

The player, for his part, will not take any decisions until the end of this season. He wants to find out whether Stuttgart, now in fourth place, will qualify for the Champions League and also wants to know which competitions his potential buyer will play in next season.

Our take: CL key for Chelsea

The English club is now sixth in the table, one point behind fifth-placed Liverpool and six behind fourth-placed Aston Villa.

Chelsea must finish in the top five to qualify for the Champions League. This could be important if the Blues want to sign Angelo Stiller in the summer.

His contract is until 2028, and transfer market He is worth €45 million.

Aston Villa Marcos is working on a deal to sign Senesi on a free transfer but now faces competition Tottenham Hotspur.

The defender’s Bournemouth contract expires in the summer, with the player not renewing his deal. He has impressed in the Premier League this season, playing 30 times.

sports witness Having recently covered how Barcelona are pursuing the target, the Argentine is likely awaiting a formal approach from the Catalan side.

Juventus have already done so, with the defender potentially appealing for a move to Italy.

There are now significant signings from a host of players including Aston Villa and Tottenham.

English clubs are ready to offer salary

tuttosport Today’s report Juve have been tracking Senesi for weeks. They have been in contact with his representatives, as well as showing interest in Leon Goretzka.

Senesi is believed to have informed Bournemouth of his decision to leave. He is now 28 years old and wants the opportunity to play for a top club and potentially earn a higher salary.

The Bianconeri have offered €3 million per season on a four-year deal but that is difficult for Senesi to accept. The main reason for this is that Aston Villa and Tottenham are also keen and are willing to offer €4m per season.

The newspaper believes it will be difficult for the Old Lady to compete, with Borussia Dortmund also offering a high salary.

Money is the only thing that will come down to it, especially since Juve is not guaranteed Champions League football.

Our opinion: Aston Villa could have the upper hand

For largely the same reasons as Juve, Tottenham may not have an advantage in this race. They will not play in Europe next season, with Aston Villa still in the race to qualify for the Champions League.

Villains boast a more stable project under Unai Emery and this could define Senesi’s career.

If Micky Van de Ven leaves Tottenham, Senesi could get more regular football in London. But Spurs have been plagued by instability in recent years.

Argentina would probably want to stay away from this, making Villa Park a more viable destination.

Wolves are covering €400,000-a-month wages for Angel Gomes during his loan deal at Molineux.

L’Equipe reports on the arrangement today As they reveal the annual salaries for each club in Ligue 1. As part of that, the payment made by Wolves to Marseille for Gomes has come to light.

The newspaper points out that Marseille currently have the second-highest wage bill in Ligue 1 behind Paris Saint-Germain. This figure is slightly lower due to the lack of taxes in AS Monaco.

big spend marseille

Either way, Marseille are going to be big spenders in that department, with the current spend being the biggest in their history.

This is because some players signed on free transfers were offered huge sums of money to move to Marseille in the first place.

The average gross monthly salary in the team is now around €300,000, with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg topping the charts with €500,000.

A free transfer from Lille, Gomes is also one of the top earners. He is on €400,000 per month, almost three times as much as before. He received the award of being a free agent.

wolf deal raises eyebrows

He is now on loan at Wolves And they are covering that entire figure including the bonus during the deal.

Wolves will therefore pay around €2.4m in wages to loan the 25-year-old until the end of the season. They have also already paid €1m for the loan deal.

The deal also includes an option to buy, although it is unlikely to be exercised if they are relegated from the Premier League as expected.

That’s a lot of money, especially for a team that made massive squad cuts in the January transfer window and brought costs in line ahead of relegation.

Surprisingly, Wolves agreed to pay his wages and bonuses in full. This is not common with loan deals, where such costs are usually split between the two clubs.

Given that Gomes has only managed seven appearances and 287 minutes since arriving, this is a deal that benefits Marseille more.
