Fulham completed the signing of Gonzalo Garcia from Real Madrid on Monday, and Alvaro Arbeloa is a big fan of the striker. The post Arbeloa lauds Fulham’s Garcia as ‘one of the best strikers in the world’ appeared first on SoccerNews.
Chalobah to join Cesc Fàbregas at Como for £27.5mFulham sign Real Madrid’s Gonzalo García for £34mTrevoh Chalobah’s long association with Chelsea is to end after Como agreed a deal worth an initial £25.7m. The England defender’s departure was agreed on the same day the club completed the signing of Jordan Henderson.Chalobah made 105 Premier League appearances for Chelsea and established himself as a first-team option during a number of turbulent periods for the club. The move will be seen as a coup for Como’s head coach, Cesc Fàbregas, with the former Chelsea midfielder pushing to bring the centre-back to Italy. Continue reading...

Chelsea are changing their transfer approach under Xabi Alonso, with the club looking at experienced players like Jordan Henderson. A new era is beginning at Chelsea with Xabi Alonso as the manager, which also comes with many changes to the team. As part of the new approach being implemented, the club are looking at experienced names like Jordan Henderson, Danny Welbeck and Eric Garcia. While Chelsea have characterized themselves by investing heavily in young players in recent years, their strategy could see a slight change by adding experienced figures to balance out the squad. Sky Sports reported that the Blues are interested in signing Henderson after failing to bring in Granit Xhaka. Henderson has impressed since returning to England with Brentford and remains an experienced option in midfield. The former Liverpool captain has one year remaining on his Brentford contract, but Chelsea are exploring the possibility of adding him to their squad. Chelsea hold talks for Welbeck The midfield is not the only area where Alonso wants to add more experience, as Chelsea have also explored a move for Welbeck to strengthen their attacking options. Welbeck could add some experience (Mike Hewitt/Getty Images) This outlet also reported that the club have held positive talks over a possible transfer for the Brighton striker, who has remained a reliable player for his team despite being at a later stage of his career. Welbeck has one year remaining on his contract with Brighton and would bring Premier League experience to Chelsea’s attack. His versatility and experience are among the reasons why he has become a name followed by the club. Garcia becomes a name to follow for Chelsea Chelsea are also monitoring Garcia as they look for defensive reinforcements, according to reports reproduced by Marca. The Barcelona defender has emerged as a player to follow, with his situation attracting interest from clubs looking for defensive depth. Garcia’s ability to play as a center-back and cover other defensive positions makes him an attractive option. Chelsea could face competition for his signature, with AC Milan also reportedly interested in the player.
Ahead of the 2026-27 season, Al Hilal are already looking to strengthen the squad to compete for every title. However, Karim Benzema could lose a teammate, as Darwin Núñez is reportedly close to leaving on loan to Portugal. After failing to win the Saudi Pro League title last season, Al Hilal have already decided to strengthen their roster, signing Crysencio Summerville for the wing. However, they remain open to bringing in more players, looking to reinforce Karim Benzema in attack. To do so, the Saudi side is preparing key departures, opening up foreign-player slots. With this in mind, Darwin Núñez is reportedly close to leaving on loan to Portugal. According to Arriyadiyah, a well-known Saudi media outlet, Darwin Núñez is very close to leaving Al Hilal on loan, heading to the Portuguese league. Both FC Porto and Benfica are closely monitoring his arrival, with negotiations already underway. Despite having played in LaLiga and the Premier League, the Uruguayan striker produced his best version in the Primeira Liga, so a return there would be key. With Benzema’s arrival, Darwin was left out of Al Hilal’s Saudi Pro League squad, leaving him available only for the AFC Champions League Elite. With the veteran Frenchman and Marcos Leonardo, the Uruguayan striker appears to have no place in the team, making his departure almost mandatory. With this, Núñez seems set to end his spell in the Saudi Pro League without playing a single minute alongside Karim. Darwin Núñez has gone from being one of the best strikers in the Premier League to becoming a marginal player in the Saudi Pro League. In the 24 matches he has played, he has scored only nine goals and provided five assists, disappointing many. Because of this, a return to the Primeira Liga would be key to rediscovering his best form, as he is only 27 years old and is looking to relaunch his professional career. Darwin Nunez of Al Hilal controls the ball during the Saudi Pro League match. Jader Duran’s arrival to Benfica could shut door to Darwin Núñez Recognizing Darwin Núñez as a great talent, SL Benfica are looking to bring the Uruguayan striker back for the 2026-27 season. Head coach Marco Silva faced him on numerous occasions in the Premier League and could look to relaunch his career. However, the 27-year-old striker will not have an easy path to earning a place, as they have just signed Jhon Jader Durán on loan, which would leave him out of the rotation. Head coach Marco Silva not only has Durán, but also Vangelis Pavlidis, Franjo Ivanović, and Anísio Cabral. Therefore, Darwin Núñez would be the fifth option or adapt to the left wing. In his spell at Benfica, the Uruguayan striker scored 48 goals and provided 16 assists in 85 games, but he is not coming in his best version and needs continuity. With this in mind, FC Porto seem to be his best option to have continuity.
Vinicius' future at Real Madrid could be uncertain amid ongoing contract talks. For the last few years, there has been a strong connection between Vinicius and Real Madrid, with the club winning major trophies while the winger has shined on the left side. However, they could be headed for a split if they cannot reach an agreement on a new contract. Vinicius’ future could then be in the Premier League, with Sky Sports reporting that Arsenal are exploring a potential move for the Real Madrid star. The report suggests that the interest is still in its early stages and that the clubs have not been in contact. The situation is connected to Vinicius’ contract, as the 26-year-old has entered the final year of his current deal with Real Madrid. The Spanish club wants to reach an agreement on a new contract, but Real Madrid could consider selling him rather than risk losing one of its biggest stars for free next summer. Arsenal’s other options in attack Vinicius is not the only player Arsenal are considering for their attack. The Gunners have also been interested in Bradley Barcola if the Paris Saint-Germain forward becomes available, while Yan Diomande has emerged as another option for the left side of the attack. Arsenal have also pursued Julián Álvarez as they look for a major addition to their forward line. Barcola could be an option (Florencia Tan Jun/Getty Images) The need for another attacking option has increased after Leandro Trossard‘s departure, with the Belgian leaving Arsenal for Besiktas. Gabriel Martinelli’s recent output has also become a point of attention, with the Brazilian scoring only one goal in the Premier League they just won. Arsenal’s interest in Vinicius therefore comes as part of a wider search for more quality in attack. The club have already purchased Christos Tzolis, but the Brazilian would represent a much bigger addition to the squad and could give the Gunners another elite option on the left side of the attack. Real Madrid’s renewal problem with Vinicius Mundo Deportivo reports that Real Madrid are willing to raise Vinicius’ salary from €15 million to €20 million net per year, but the two sides are still not close to an agreement. The Brazilian wants terms that would put him alongside Kylian Mbappé as the club’s highest-paid player, which could leave the door open for Arsenal if the renewal talks remain unresolved.
