Isco departure could justify Real Madrid’s €250m move for Spurs’ Christian Eriksen

The winter transfer window is just a month away, but that hasn’t stopped the rumours of various players potentially being on the move.

Across the world of football, there remains plenty of activity and stories that have football fans talking.

Here, we look at the latest transfer deals that could happen when the market reopens in January.

 

CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN

Should Real Madrid receive a ludicrous fee for Isco, it could help justify shoving €250m in Tottenham’s direction for Eriksen with the Dane long been admired from within the walls of the Bernabeu, but Daniel Levy’s valuation of the playmaker continues to scare them off.

Madrid remain keen on the abundantly talented Spurs playmaker but Marca report that they have been told that he will cost €250m and not a penny less.

Spurs are understandably keen to retain the services of a prized asset and will only consider a sale if a record-breaking bid is tabled.

 

ANDRE ONANA

Ajax CEO Edwin van der Sar says the club hope to keep goalkeeper Onana for “as long as possible” amid rumours Barcelona want to re-sign him.

The Cameroon international moved to Amsterdam from Barca in 2015 and took over as the undisputed No1 the following season after Jasper Cillessen went in the opposite direction.

With over 100 appearances for the Eredivisie giants, the 22-year-old is contracted to 2021 and Van der Sar is confident he will stay put for now.

“I think Andre is fantastic,” Van der Sar told Goal.

“I think there are always a lot of rumours about players from Ajax. We develop great players and there is interest in a lot of our players, but we like to keep them for as long as possible.”

 

FRANCOIS KAMANO

Atletico Madrid have been monitoring the performance of Bordeaux winger Kamano in past weeks, Mercato365 claims.

Scouts from the Wanda Metropolitano as well as representatives from the Premier League and Serie A were spotted in Saturday’s goalless draw between Bordeaux and Dijon, and the Guinea international was in action for 75 minutes.

Kamano has enjoyed a fine start to the Ligue 1 this season with seven goals so far.
