The transfer window is heating up, and the latest rumors are flying around like wildfire. Manchester United is reportedly exploring a move for Mateus Fernandes, a 21-year-old midfielder who impressed with his performances despite being relegated with West Ham. United's transfer hierarchy believes Fernandes has the potential to become as good as Declan Rice, and they're not alone in their interest. Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain are also believed to be interested in the player. However, no formal offers have been made yet, and West Ham is keen to keep hold of Fernandes.
In other news, Marc Cucurella is attracting interest from Manchester City and Manchester United. The two Manchester clubs are said to be fond of the Chelsea left-back and want to take advantage of the Blues missing out on European football. It's reported that Chelsea would listen to offers above £35 million. The ex-Brighton ace has three years left on his contract at Stamford Bridge.
Meanwhile, Kennet Eichhorn has opted to reject Premier League interest and is set to sign for Bayer Leverkusen instead. Eichhorn had been linked with both Liverpool and Manchester City, but has opted against a move to England. That's according to The Athletic, who report the 16-year-old will join Leverkusen from Hertha Berlin.
Ben Davies has penned a one-year extension at Tottenham. The Welshman originally joined the club in 2014 after a successful stint with Swansea City. Davies has racked up over 240 Premier League appearances for the north Londoners. While no longer a key player, Davies is valued as a member of the Spurs squad and has signed an extension. His deal was due to expire in the summer, but his stay with Spurs will extend into a 13th year.
Finally, Arsenal is said to be keen on signing Sandro Tonali this summer. The Newcastle midfielder has been linked with a move away from St. James' Park. Manchester United has been touted as the most likely destination so far. However, according to the Evening Standard, Arsenal are now considered in the mix. There had been suggestions that he was liked by Arsenal during the January transfer window, with talk of a surprise January bid. Nothing materialised and Tonali remained at Newcastle for the rest of the campaign. But with Newcastle having missed out on European football of any kind, it's suggested the Magpies could be about to lose the Italian.
