This was suggested in the World Cup thread and seems like a good idea. Latest news...

Aaronson to Leeds seems imminent:

Sources: With their Premier League survival, Leeds United are finalizing a deal to acquire RB Salzburg's USMNT attacker Brenden Aaronson. Deal around $30 million was previously agreed to, pending relegation. Final steps now.

Adams' future at RB Leipzig in question?


Potential Leeds move:

CCV likely to stay with Celtic. The loan supposedly contains an option to buy for 6m plus incentives which could bring it up to 10m. Not sure what needs to be ironed out with Tottenham.

Cameron Carter-Vickers has indeed agreed personal teams with Celtic, but no official agreement yet between #SPFL winners and Tottenham, a source close to the player confirmed. Bournemouth, Newcastle, Everton, Fulham waiting in the wings. #USMNT

Did Pulisic ever have Chelsea on his Insta?

I saw a tweet that said he never had it on his Instagram, only his Twitter where he still has it.
Who knows though

In reply to jeffk I was literally in the process of posting this

My link has a cooler graphic though:

✍️ #LUFC is delighted to announce an agreement with Red Bull Salzburg for the transfer of Brenden Aaronson, which will be completed on July 1st

Great news for Aaronson! Leeds are a really good fit for him, and I think the fans will love his work rate. Speed of the EPL game will only help him in his development.

More Adams to Leeds smoke:

No

And now Djordje is injured. US only calling up 27 players while other countries call up 35-40 players. Is that Gregg or is that US Soccer not wanting to pay extra roster spots?

ROSTER UPDATE:

An ankle injury has forced Djordje Mihailovic off the #USMNT roster for June training camp.

Berhalter wants to get as many reps as he can for the core group so getting 40 guys in camp isn't going to help on that front. I think Renya, Pulisic, McKennie, Adams, Dest, Robinson and Musah has only started a couple of games together so they need all the reps they can get.

Now there is only 6 matches left so realistically it's not likely to get someone brand new ito learn the system that hasn't played before; this is a knock against him not integrating more players during the WCQ windows

Hopefully he'll call in someone else that he thinks may be able to be on the squad to Qatar (Pomykal?)

Are we posting rumors on this thread or just verified interest from teams? Just want to know before I proceed posting everything I hear from the interwebs.

In reply to KCup17 i think you can let fly with whatever rumors you want... we all know how silly the Euro transfer season is.

I think it begs the question, how many of these are legit versus flights of fancy?

Is Adams really being considered by Leeds or is it just people thinking that since Marsh is there, he'll take Adams?

Is Pulisic really wanted by RM, or is that just fanboy hopefulness?

As far as legit interest... I don't want to muddy the thread with completely unfounded rumors or rumors without verified sources.

The 2 interesting things I heard from yesterday are:
1. RM are interested in bidding for Gaga Slonina
2. Tottenham are considering a bid for Weston. If Paul Pogba ends up at Juve it will push Weston out.

Adams stuff is pure speculation at this point, albeit from "legitimate" sources like Fabrizio Romano. There's no indication there's been contact.

But I think speculation is welcome on this thread. It's part of what makes sports interesting in my opinion.

Would I love to see Adams move on from thee Bundesliga? Yes. Do I think he will end up at Leeds? Maybe not. But if Kalvin Phillips does move elsewhere I could see Adams being a good fit.

Is it crazy that I would take McKennie over Pogba all day at this point?

In reply to carl spacklers hat Not at all. McKennie has actually been consistently in the first team and producing over the last 2 seasons. Pogba has been a shell of the talent we all thought he could be. Has 2 good games then goes missing for long stretches and usually ends up hurt and sidelined for months.

CCV officially staying with Celtic

Congrats to CCV!

I've heard rumors that Chris Richards may be off to the Prem. With Crystal Palace being the most interested.

Also heard that the MLS turned down Real Madrids initial offer for Gaga Slonina

In reply to KCup17 Chelsea and Real Madrid in on him.

Important hours ahead for Gabriel Slonina transfer. Real Madrid made official bid turned down by Chicago Fire last week - but Chelsea are also in talks to sign him, after being really close last February 🚨🇺🇸 #CFC

Decision to be made soon - gonna be one of MLS record transfers. pic.twitter.com/yrAYjITU6T

Leipzig signed some midfield depth and supposedly it's to replace Tyler Adams.

Fabrizio Romano says Adams is moving on and his most likely destination is Leeds.

The Athletic and others have said he's on the radar of Benfica and Sevilla too.

Fiorentina are eyeing Musah.

According to Kicker, ManCity is going to sign another keeper, Ortega. Steffen is probably going to get loaned out which may not be necessarily a bad thing.

Ortega is an amazing keeper. There were some pundits who dared suggest he was the best in the Bundesliga… of course, beating Neuer is a tall order, but I think it's entirely possible that he's better than Ederson. The raw stats certainly seem to indicate he is, especially when you consider that he had zero help in front of him.

It's hard to believe he's going to City to just be a backup. I think he's gonna push Ederson for the starting job.
