It's that time of the year again - the transfer window is now open until September 1 and it's sure to be a busy period with clubs looking to make big signings ahead of next season.
Jarell Quansah is wanted by Arsenal (Picture: Getty) Jarell Quansah is reportedly open to joining Arsenal this summer after Bayer Leverkusen set their asking price for the versatile defender. Mikel Arteta is keen to add to his defensive options before the end of the summer transfer window after William Saliba sustained a back injury at the World Cup. The Gunners have opened talks with Aston Villa over a deal for Ezri Konsa, although there is a significant gap between both clubs’ valuation of the 28-year-old defender. Arsenal now appear to have widened their search, and are considering a move for Leverkusen defender Quansah.

The 23-year-old joined the German club last year from Liverpool for £30million and made 28 league appearances in his first season. Quansah’s form saw him named in England’s World Cup squad this summer, with his performances clearly catching Arsenal’s eye as they look to sign a versatile defender who can provide cover at centre-back and right-back. Widespread reports indicate that Leverkusen do not want to sell the player, although Quansah is said to be keen on a move to the Emirates should a deal progress. Jarell Quansah made three appearances at the 2026 World Cup (Picture: Getty) And while club-to-club talks have not taken place, The Guardian reports that the Bundesliga club would demand at least €50m (£43m) to let Quansah leave. That fee would be less than the €70million (£59m) buy-back option that Liverpool had for Quansah, although that clause has now expired. Asked about Arsenal’s interest in Konsa and Quansah on Friday, Arteta said: ‘I’m not going to talk about any individuals obviously. Ezri Konsa is also wanted by Arsenal (Picture: PA) ‘What I can tell you is the ambition of the club, it’s big, we want to improve the squad, we want to evolve the squad, and in order to achieve that, we have obviously detected some areas that can be strengthened. ‘That’s what we are trying to do.’ On Arsenal’s plans for the rest of the window more generally, the Spaniard added: ‘It’s a very exciting part of the season, when a lot of things happen. ‘I think you create excitement; there’s an opportunity as well to evolve. There’s also a good way to understand what every player is feeling. ‘We are trying the maximum that we can to end up in 14 days, 13 days in the best possible condition to compete for every possible competition.’ Arsenal could also sanction outgoings before deadline day, with Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri both linked with moves to Galatasaray.

Manchester United are reportedly eyeing up a transfer move for Bayern Munich centre-back Kim Min-jae, though he wants to stay at the Allianz Arena. The South Korea international is an experienced defender who’s had a fine career at the highest level, having shone for Bayern and for previous club Napoli. Kim is no longer first […] The post Journalist claims Manchester United are eyeing potential transfer of experienced defender appeared first on CaughtOffside.
Intriguingly, during talks between Arsenal and Galatasaray during this transfer window, the future of the Turkish side's Nigeria striker Victor Osimhen is understood to have been discussed. Wingers Gabriel Martinelli and Ethan Nwaneri are among the players the Gunners are understood to have invited offers for. Martinelli is subject of a verbal offer worth 45m euros (£38.5m) - but according to sources there is reluctance from the 25-year-old forward to move to Turkey.
After lifting the UEFA Super Cup with PSG, Marquinhos is now one step closer of matching Lionel Messi's record as the most-winning soccer player in history. Marquinhos has once again led Paris Saint-Germain to victory in one of Europe’s premier competitions, capturing the 2026 UEFA Super Cup against Aston Villa. By adding another trophy to his cabinet, the Brazilian defender moves one step closer to matching Lionel Messi‘s historic mark as the most decorated player in soccer history. After arriving at PSG from AS Roma in July 2013, Marquinhos joined the club at the dawn of their era of domestic dominance. Now serving as team captain at 32 years old, the Brazilian center back has secured two UEFA Champions League titles and two UEFA Super Cup trophies following Wednesday’s 2-1 victory over Aston Villa. By lifting the European trophy, Marquinhos raised his career total to 44 professional titles. The defender won the 2012 Copa Libertadores with Corinthians, along with the South American U-17 Championship, the 2019 Copa America, and an Olympic gold medal at the 2016 Rio Games with the Brazil national team, while earning the rest of his silverware in the French capital. With his total at PSG climbing to 40, Marquinhos has now won more trophies with a single club than any other player in history. The Super Cup victory allowed him to break the previous record held by legend Hossam Ashour, who won 39 titles with Egyptian powerhouse Al Ahly.

Marquinhos has already locked down the number two spot on the all-time list, passing countryman Dani Alves, who retired with 42 career titles. Unlike the former right back, Lionel Messi remains active, but his ultimate record is facing a real threat of being matched or even broken in the near future. At present, Lionel Messi leads all players with 48 official career titles. The Argentine star reached that milestone by capturing 35 trophies with FC Barcelona, three with PSG, three with Inter Miami, and seven with the Argentina national team, including his 2008 Olympic gold medal and the 2005 FIFA U-20 World Cup title. With Inter Miami eliminated from both the CONCACAF Champions Cup and the Leagues Cup, Messi can contend for a maximum of two trophies in 2026: the Supporters’ Shield and the MLS Cup. Marquinhos, meanwhile, can narrow the gap as early as this weekend, when PSG face RC Lens in the 2026 Trophee des Champions.
Arsenal could be handed a sensational opportunity to sign Victor Osimhen after the striker’s name reportedly emerged during negotiations between the Gunners and Galatasaray.
