Transfer rumors, news: Bayern put Wirtz top of priority list
Briefly

Bayern Munich has made Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz their primary target for the upcoming summer transfer window, amid keen interest from notable clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester City. Internal discussions among Bayern executives have solidified this focus, with a willingness to invest over €100 million to secure Wirtz. However, the club recognizes the necessity of offloading some first-team players to generate the needed funds for this transfer.
Manchester United is actively considering a transfer for Atalanta's Éderson, who recently made his debut for the Brazilian national team. The 25-year-old midfielder's contract runs until 2027, yet United's urgent need for midfield reinforcements could prompt a bid as early as January. The internal valuation of Éderson is robust at United, although competition from Manchester City could complicate their pursuit of the player.
In addition to Wirtz and Éderson, Manchester City is reportedly interested in Sporting CP's Maxi Araujo, a rising star who has gained significant attention in European football. Araujo's performances, including a notable goal scored against City in the UEFA Champions League, have made him a player to watch. City's scouting team sees potential in Araujo as they look to bolster their attacking options for the future.
