Liverpool among clubs keen on Vuskovic - Sunday's gossip

What the report says

BBC Sport Football’s gossip roundup says Brighton defender Luka Vuskovic is attracting attention from several leading European clubs. The report names Liverpool and Real Madrid among those interested in the 19-year-old Croatia defender, who moved to Brighton from Tottenham in the summer. It also says Chelsea, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are monitoring his situation. The roundup does not say whether any formal bid has been made.

Liverpool are also said to have no plans to bring Trent Alexander-Arnold back from Real Madrid, where the 28-year-old is reportedly struggling for regular first-team opportunities. In another Liverpool-linked item, Valencia are understood to be preparing to extend the contract of Spain forward David Otorbi, a move that would raise his release clause, even though Liverpool are said to have shown interest.

The piece also notes that Newcastle United and Tottenham have enquired about AC Milan pair Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Fikayo Tomori, with Milan reportedly open to letting them leave. Separately, AC Milan are said to be targeting Manchester United defender Leny Yoro for a possible summer move, with an estimated fee mentioned in the roundup. The gossip reflects the ongoing transfer speculation around several Premier League and European clubs as the season continues.
