Real Madrid Target McTominay and Olise as Chelsea Eye De Jong Move

Real Madrid are monitoring Scott McTominay and Michael Olise, while Chelsea identify Frenkie de Jong as a replacement for Enzo Fernandez.
Real Madrid are reportedly looking to make significant moves in the upcoming transfer window, with Napoli’s Scott McTominay and Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise emerging as primary targets. The Spanish club is keen to add both grit and flair to their ranks as they plan for the future.
McTominay, the 29-year-old Scotland international, has made a strong impression since moving to Italy. According to media reports, Madrid officials are closely following his contract situation at Napoli. While there was talk of a potential return to Manchester United, the English club is now prioritizing younger signings, leaving the door open for a move to the Santiago Bernabéu at the end of the season.
Olise and De Jong in the Spotlight
Michael Olise is also high on the wishlist for the La Liga champions. Although Bayern Munich are hopeful of extending the 24-year-old’s stay in Germany beyond his current 2029 deal, it is suggested that a call from Real Madrid could change the winger's plans. The Frenchman is considered one of the most promising talents in European football today.
In London, Chelsea are reportedly identifying Frenkie de Jong as a key target. The 29-year-old Barcelona midfielder is seen as the ideal candidate to replace Enzo Fernandez, who recently departed for Manchester City. Chelsea are eager to secure the Dutch international to stabilize their midfield following the high-profile exit.
Other transfer stories include Jarell Quansah, who is currently at Bayer Leverkusen. Despite Liverpool having a £59.5 million buyback option for the 23-year-old defender, he is reportedly not interested in a return to his former club and has been linked with both Real Madrid and Chelsea. Elsewhere, Manchester United has offered a scholarship to 16-year-old JJ Gabriel, while Hull City is finalizing a deal for Turkish goalkeeper Deniz Donmezer. Juventus is also considering Folarin Balogun as an alternative to Nick Woltemade.
