– Real Madrid are showing serious interest in signing Arsenal teenager Myles Lewis-Skelly, according to The Guardian. Lewis-Skelly, 17, has had a breakthrough season and, despite being a midfielder in the academy, made himself first choice at left-back. He also earned himself a senior England call-up. Madrid are aware that his current contract is due to expire in 2026, with talks to extend it reportedly stalling, and the Gunners are under pressure to ensure they don’t lose him.
– Liverpool are set to compete for the signature of Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, reports Sky Sports Deutschland’s Florian Plettenberg. Reds manager Arne Slot is reportedly “keen” on the 22-year-old who directly contributed to 33 goals in 47 matches across all competitions this season. Liverpool will still face competition from Chelsea in the race to sign the France youth international, with Frankfurt expected to stand firm with their valuation of €100 million before agreeing to a deal.
