TRENDING RUMORS
– Fulham are expected to “accelerate” their efforts to sign PSV and USMNT forward Ricardo Pepi, according to Fabrizio Romano. Pepi suffered a broken forearm while in action for PSV in mid-January but made a scoring return to action this weekend and is keen to move to the Premier League for next season. Fulham were close to agreeing to a fee in the region of €37 million ($43.9 million) in the January transfer window, but the deal was contingent on PSV finding a replacement, which they could not do.
– Fulham and USMNT left back Antonee Robinson favors a move to Liverpool over Manchester United this summer, according to TEAMtalk. Both clubs are expected to be in the market for a new left back at the end of the season, although their transfer plans may hinge upon qualifying for the UEFA Champions League. According to reports, Robinson could be available for around £25 million, as he is under contract at Fulham until June 2028. Liverpool are looking to replace Andy Robertson, while United are planning for life without Luke Shaw.
– Manchester United have been linked with Barcelona left back Alejandro Balde, but the Spanish club won’t let him depart, says Fabrizio Romano. Balde, 22, is considered a key part of Barcelona’s future, and United have signed Patrick Dorgu to play on the left side of defense already. The report claims United will move for a new left winger this summer, while they will also look for central midfielders and a possible addition at center back as well.
– Manchester City are closing in on the signing of Newcastle United right back Tino Livramento, according to Football Insider. City are keen on bolstering their options at right back, with the club yet to find a long-term replacement for former captain Kyle Walker, and Livramento looks to be their preferred option after a fine season for Newcastle. The 23-year-old England international could move for around the £70 million, although nothing has been finalized at this stage.
– Arsenal are ready to send 19-year-old left back Myles Lewis-Skelly on loan ahead of next season, reports Football Insider. The England international has started just one game in the league since January and has found himself behind Piero Hincapié and Riccardo Calafiori after a breakthrough campaign last season. Everton are reported to be interested in bringing him in on a temporary basis.
EXPERT TAKE
Will Antonee Robinson make the USMNT 2026 World Cup squad? Jeff Carlisle explores the country’s big board 5.0:
Robinson’s recovery from a knee injury that kept him out for much of the first half of the season has gone from being celebratory to worrying. Robinson made six consecutive 90-minute appearances upon his return, but is now no longer a lock starter for Fulham, with Ryan Sessegnon providing considerable competition.
Lately, Robinson has been hampered by an ankle injury, though he was back in the lineup on Wednesday for Fulham against West Ham. He’s still the presumed starter for the USMNT, but his health bears watching.
