Dortmund and their efforts to rescue Jadon Sancho.
Borussia Dortmund are considering a third attempt to sign winger Jadon Sancho. The 26-year-old is currently on loan at Aston Villa and is expected to leave Manchester United on a free transfer next summer. The Ruhr-based club believe that Sancho's familiarity with the Bundesliga environment will be key to helping him rediscover the peak form that once made him a coveted player across Europe.
Nottingham Forest demands a record price for Elliot Anderson.
In England, Nottingham Forest has issued a firm statement regarding Elliot Anderson's future. The City Ground club is only willing to let the 23-year-old midfielder join Manchester United or Manchester City for a fee between £100 million and £120 million. This is seen as a challenge to the financial capabilities of the two Manchester giants, as both are closely monitoring the English midfielder.
Arsenal and Tottenham are actively searching for young talent.
Alongside blockbuster signings, North London clubs are also actively rejuvenating their squads. Tottenham Hotspur are stepping up negotiations with Manchester City to acquire goalkeeper James Trafford. The 23-year-old is considered a priority target in the manager's plan to revamp Tottenham's defense.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are targeting two potential players: Victor Valdepenas (19 years old) from Real Madrid and Jacobo Ramon (21 years old) from Como. The Emirates Stadium club highly values the potential of this duo to build a solid defense for the long-term future.

Conversely, Gabriel Martinelli has affirmed his determination to stay and contribute to Arsenal despite rumors that the club might put him up for sale.
