    Lille target Trabzonspor goalkeeper Çakır as Maignan replacement

    Mohamed Toubache-TER reports this afternoon that Lille are continuing their hunt for a goalkeeper to replace Mike Maignan, now at Milan, with Trabzonspor’s Uğurcan Çakır identified by the board as a potential target. Nevertheless, a deal remains complicated for the Turkish international, while Altay Bayındır of Fenerbahçe is also on Les Dogues’ shortlist. The 23-year-old, who has also been capped for the Turkey team, has been the Süper Lig’s goalkeeper since the 2019-20 season.

    Real Madrid set ultimatum to wrap up Kylian Mbappé transfer by end of weekend

    Le Parisien report today that Real Madrid have set an ultimatum to Paris Saint-Germain in their efforts to sign Kylian Mbappé, informing the club that they will renounce their efforts to sign the World Cup winner should a deal not be in place by Sunday evening. The La Liga club believe that once Mbappé joins up with the rest of the France squad on Monday morning, a potential transfer will become increasingly difficult to complete, and that PSG are running down the clock. A medical would be difficult to organise, although France manager Didier Deschamps has indicated that he could make accomodations should there be any last-minute transfer. Real Madrid have…
