Football transfer news expert Romano believes it is a formality that Napoli will sign the Denmark striker after his brilliant start to life at the Stadio Maradona.

Neymar back to Europe?

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Brazil legend Neymar was offered to Napoli and Inter Milan this summer, as a return to Europe ahead of the World Cup beckons.

The 33-year-old’s contract at Santos is set to expire at the end of December and he could be set to return to Europe during the January transfer window as he targets a return to the Brazil squad for the 2026 World Cup.

He hasn’t played for his country since October 2023, but he is dreaming of competing at one last major tournament and is reportedly willing to do whatever it takes to get Carlo Ancelotti’s attention.

Arsenal target another left-back

Arsenal are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing Eintracht Frankfurt left-back Nathaniel Brown next summer.

The 22-year-old’s recent form in the Bundesliga has caught the attention of numerous top European clubs, including Arsenal, Manchester City and Real Madrid, as per BILD.

Eintracht Frankfurt are braced to receive interest in Brown next summer and they have reacted to his growing stock by slapping a €60m price tag on his head, according to Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg on X.

Jobe Bellingham to Man Utd?

Manchester United have reportedly rekindled their interest in England U21 international Jobe Bellingham amid his uncertain future at Borussia Dortmund.

The 20-year-old followed in his older brother’s footsteps by moving to the Signal Iduna Park this summer, however he has endured a difficult start to life in Germany and an early return to England appears to be on the cards.

His father controversially confronted the club’s sporting director Sebastian Kehl in the tunnel after his son was substituted at half-time in their opening Bundesliga fixture of the season and the incident has clouded Jobe’s first few months in Germany.

The England U21 captain still has over four-and-a-half years remaining on his current contract with the German giants, but his lack of progress at Dortmund is being closely monitored by both Man Utd and Crystal Palace, as per BILD.
