Man Utd, Arsenal target Croatia striker; other transfer chatter

Manchester United and Arsenal have both shown interest in Croatia striker Igor Matanovic, who currently plays for Freiburg in the Bundesliga. The 22‑year‑old has been on the radar of several Premier League sides after a strong season in Germany.

Meanwhile, Juventus have been linked with Liverpool centre‑back Giovanni Leoni, who has been a key part of Liverpool’s defensive line. The Italian club is reportedly looking to bolster their back line with a proven Premier League defender.

Newcastle United are reportedly willing to let forward Joe Willock leave in January, giving the club breathing room in the squad and allowing the player to seek more regular first‑team football elsewhere.

Other clubs have also been mentioned in the gossip, although no further details have been confirmed. The transfer market remains active as clubs look to strengthen their squads ahead of the final stages of the season.

With the summer transfer window still open, negotiations are expected to continue in the coming days. The clubs involved will need to agree on terms before any official move can be confirmed.
