England winger Jadon Sancho has officially turned down an approach from Spanish La Liga outfit Getafe. The 26-year-old has been available as a free agent since departing Manchester United during the summer transfer window, but he currently holds an alternative proposal from Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, in another high-profile English attacking link, Everton are reportedly contemplating an ambitious swoop for 28-year-old Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford.
Everton are also scouring the European market to reinforce their frontline, keeping tabs on 22-year-old Iceland international striker Orri Oskarsson from Real Sociedad as they seek to upgrade their offensive depth. At the same time, the Toffees face serious interest in their own squad, with Chelsea remaining keen admirers of 24-year-old English defender Jarrad Branthwaite, although the London side will have to battle Manchester United for his signature.
Elsewhere on the continent, Paris St-Germain are in active discussions with 21-year-old France forward Desire Doue regarding a contract extension. The Ligue 1 champions are pushing to lock down Doue's long-term future amid substantial transfer interest from English heavyweights Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City. Chelsea are also exploring other continental targets, weighing up an approach for Barcelona and Spain midfielder Fermin Lopez, 23, who is likewise being tracked by PSG. In addition, Liverpool have opened communication with Monaco's 22-year-old Senegal midfielder Lamine Camara, who narrowly missed out on a move to Chelsea in the summer.
Looking ahead to upcoming market activity, Leeds United are plotting a January move to recruit Porto's 29-year-old Nigerian left-back Zaidu Sanusi. In Italy, Como midfielder Nico Paz is drawing significant attention, with Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United all monitoring the 22-year-old Argentina international. However, the Serie A club remain firm on their stance and currently have no intention of sanctioning a sale.
