Arsenal, Chelsea, and Man City Target PSG Winger Doué as Juve Prioritize Balogun

Paris Saint-Germain winger Désiré Doué is the subject of intense scrutiny from major European clubs.

According to TEAMtalk, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City are actively monitoring the 21-year-old France international. Bayern Munich is also reported to be keeping tabs on the player's development.

Any club looking to sign Doué may face resistance from his current employer. PSG is reportedly making progress in negotiations for a new contract that would secure his stay at the club through 2029. This move aims to lock in the winger before a major transfer window opens.

In Italy, Juventus has set its sights on Monaco striker Folarin Balogun. Tuttosport reports that the 25-year-old USMNT international is the Turin side's number one target for the January transfer window. The decision is driven by technical and financial considerations. Balogun is expected to leave Monaco after a summer transfer to Everton, valued at €40 million, did not materialize. Juventus views Atlético Madrid's Alexander Sørloth and Antonio Raimondo, currently on loan at Frosinone, as fallback options.

Chelsea has shifted focus to AFC Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott. Florian Plettenberg indicates that the London club is pursuing the 23-year-old England international after a failed summer attempt. Liverpool is also reportedly interested in reuniting Scott with Andoni Iraola. Bournemouth is considering AZ Alkmaar's Kees Smit and Lazio's Kenneth Taylor as potential replacements.

Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Yasin Ayari is attracting bids from Chelsea, AC Milan, Galatasaray, and Fenerbahçe. The 23-year-old Sweden international's contract expires in the summer, though Brighton holds a one-year extension clause. His future remains uncertain as interest from Newcastle United, Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Atlético Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Roma, and Juventus continues to build.

Former Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho has reportedly rejected a bid from Getafe. Marca states the 26-year-old free agent received a lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia. Sancho sought a net salary of €3 million through the end of the season, a figure Getafe could not match. Meanwhile, Juventus is monitoring Newcastle loanee Nick Woltemade as a backup to Harry Kane, per Gazzetta dello Sport. Barcelona, Napoli, and Juventus are tracking Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall due to his limited playing time this season. Manchester United is prioritizing defensive reinforcements in January, while Brighton and RB Leipzig may bid for Cremonese loanee Adin Licina. Lecce anticipates defender Tiago Gabriel will leave in January amid Everton interest. Leeds United seeks a reduced fee for Porto left back Zaidu Sanusi, and Fiorentina right-back João Mário may seek a transfer for more minutes.
