Arsenal monitoring Como's Paz - Sunday's gossip

Arsenal are keeping an eye on 22-year-old Como attacker Nico Paz, though Real Madrid retain an €80m (£68.7m) buy-back clause for the Argentine. Both Liverpool and Aston Villa are observing 22-year-old Fiorentina midfielder Cher Ndour, while Sunderland remain determined to recruit Mozambique winger Geny Catamo, 25, despite an unsuccessful pursuit of the Sporting player over the summer.

Meanwhile, Monaco anticipate collecting €70m (£60.1m) for 22-year-old Senegalese midfielder Lamine Camara, who remains admired by Liverpool and Chelsea after a proposed switch to West London fell apart on deadline day. Elsewhere, 25-year-old Leeds United attacker Lukas Nmecha plans an exit upon the conclusion of his deal this summer without an uptick in minutes, and Celtic are evaluating a January swoop for 22-year-old Liverpool full-back Luke Chambers.

Now without a club following two temporary stints with Charlotte FC and his subsequent departure from Galatasaray, 33-year-old winger Wilfried Zaha has been put forward to Malaga. In Spain, Barcelona are weighing a two-year extension through 2030 for 29-year-old Brazilian forward Raphinha, who is currently tied to the club until 2028.

The Catalan giants have already secured 18-year-old Egyptian prospect Hamza Abdelkarim until 2030, locking him down with a €150m (£128.7m) buyout option. Furthermore, Arsenal and Chelsea are currently at the front of the queue to land Valerenga's 15-year-old Norwegian prospect Gabriel Rajkovic.
