– Juventus are planning a double move in the next transfer window for Newcastle United midfielder Sandro Tonali and on-loan Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. Juve sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli is reported to have already begun work on the deals, with Tonali, 24, a “dream” option. The Bianconeri are also preparing talks with Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis over a move for Osimhen, who has a release clause worth in the region of €80 million that is active to only clubs outside of the Serie A. The 26-year-old Nigeria international has maintained form in Turkey this season, contributing to 22 goals across 22 appearances in the league and in Europe.

– Atletico Madrid are interested in a move for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, reports TEAMtalk. The Spanish club are believed to have identified the 27-year-old as a potential replacement for Antoine Griezmann, who is set to enter the final year of his contract at the Wanda Metropolitano in the summer. The Eagles are expected to consider offers for Mateta in the next transfer window if he doesn’t sign a new deal at Selhurst Park, with “several” teams keeping close tabs on his situation amid promising recent form, during a spell in which he has contributed to 11 goals in 24 Premier League matches.

– Talks are ongoing between Barcelona and the representatives of winger Ansu Fati over a potential exit in the summer, according to Sport. The Blaugrana are reported to “not understand” why the 22-year-old didn’t accept a move away from the Camp Nou in January, despite struggling to garner regular starts for manager Hansi Flick’s side recently. Fati wasn’t named among Barca’s squad on Sunday as they enjoyed a 4-1 victory over Sevilla.

– Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic will be moved on to make room for the permanent signing of on-loan Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani, according to Calciomercato. It is said that the 25-year-old Serbia star is set to be offloaded imminently as the Bianconeri look to evolve their squad. Kolo Muani continued his impressive start to life in the Serie A on Friday with a brace in the 2-1 league win over Como, making it five goals from his first three matches.

– A deal has been agreed between Santos and Benfica for forward Benjamín Rollheiser, reports UOL. The 24-year-old is set to join the Brasileirao club for €11m plus a clause that entitles the Portuguese Primeira Liga side to 15% of any future transfer fee, with head coach Pedro Caixinha having made a special request to land Rollheiser to play alongside Neymar, who featured in the 0-0 draw against Novorizontino on Sunday.
