The Egyptian winger, who is 32 years old, ends his current contract at the end of the season, so these negotiations are crucial for him and for the club, which is also working to extend Virgil van Dijk’s contract until 2027, according to Nicolo Schira.
On the other hand, Juventus has its sights on António Silva from Benfica as its main objective to reinforce the defense in the next January market, reports Sky Sports Italia. The club’s efforts are focused on securing the 21-year-old Portuguese, and they could attempt a costly loan deal along the lines of the one that brought Francisco Conceição from Porto during the summer.
AC Milan is also active in the market, looking for possible signings to improve its squad. According to Calciomercato, the club is interested in Fiorentina’s Fabiano Parisi, Club Brugge’s Maxim De Cuyper and Lecce’s Patrick Dorgu to strengthen the left-back position. Additionally, they are considering several midfielders, including Chelsea’s Carney Chukwuemeka and Red Bull Salzburg’s Lucas Gourna-Douath among others.
Finally, West Ham United are exploring the possibility of signing Giovanni Simeone from Napoli in January, according to FootballTransfers. Additionally, they are interested in Evan Ferguson from Brighton & Hove Albion, possibly as a measure to alleviate the lack of consistency in attack due to injuries to Niclas Füllkrug and the inconsistent form of Michail Antonio. Meanwhile, Patrik Schick has expressed to Bayer Leverkusen his desire to play more regularly, although his departure would not be contemplated before the summer.
