Roberto De Zerbi: I want to stay at Brighton | ‘I love this city!’
ROBERTO DE ZERBI ‘NEW FAVOURITE’ TO TAKE OVER AT BAYERN MUNICH, NEWCASTLE LINE UP TOSIN ADARABIOYO – PAPER ROUND
Newcastle could beat Tottenham, Manchester United and AC Milan to sign Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer this summer, while Roberto De Zerbi may leave Brighton to join Bayern Munich. Elsewhere, Barcelona need to raise funds and so may sell defender Ronald Araujo, and Will Still has left Reims, meaning he will cost nothing if Sunderland want to appoint him.
DE ZERBI ‘FAVOURITE’ FOR BAYERN JOB
Roberto De Zerbi looks like he could leave Brighton this summer, with a job opening up in Germany at Bayern Munich.
The Daily Mail reports that the Italian has hinted he could leave the south club side this summer, and with Ralf Rangnick staying with Austria, the Bavarian hotseat remains vacant with Thomas Tuchel set to depart at the end of the campaign.
The paper writes: “A Premier League manager has emerged as the favourite to become the next Bayern Munich manager.
“De Zerbi raised concerns over his future earlier this season, refusing to commit to the Seagulls and admitting he needed to ensure he had the same ‘vision’ as the club. He has been linked with the likes of Liverpool and Barcelona, but those sides seem to have settled their futures, with Arne Slot close to being appointed Reds boss and Xavi opting to stay in Spain.
“De Zerbi, 44, could opt to jump ship this summer, with the opportunity to take charge of one of Europe’s top clubs potentially presenting itself.”
NEWCASTLE SET TO SIGN ADARABIOYO
Newcastle United look likely to beat Manchester United, AC Milan and Tottenham to Tosin Adarabioyo.
The defender is out of contract at the end of the season and is not anticipated to remain with his current club Fulham.
The Sun reports: “Newcastle are closing in on a free transfer for Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo.
“The 26-year-old has reportedly been offered a long-term deal at St James’ Park worth more than £100k-a-week.
“The former Manchester City kid recently reiterated his desire to leave Fulham in the summer when his deal expires – which SunSport revealed back in December.
“Numerous clubs from home and abroad have been eyeing up Tosin, including Manchester United, Tottenham and AC Milan.”
