Liverpool Lead Chase for Napoli Defender Beukema in £24m Deal

Liverpool have made a formal offer for Napoli centre-back Sam Beukema, with the proposed deal valued at £24.2 million (€28m). The 27-year-old Dutch international has emerged as a top target for the Reds as they look to strengthen their defensive options.

In other transfer news, Premier League giants Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United have been offered the chance to sign AC Milan winger Rafael Leao. The Portuguese international, 26, could be available for around £43.2m (€50m) as the Serie A side looks to offload him.

Manchester United are also showing interest in Botafogo midfielder Danilo, who previously played for Nottingham Forest. The 25-year-old Brazilian is seen as a potential replacement for Casemiro.

Roma are expected to trigger their option to buy Aston Villa winger Donyell Malen for £21.6m (€25m), after the Dutchman scored 12 goals on loan in Italy. However, Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle are also monitoring the 27-year-old.

Elsewhere, Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford is attracting attention from several clubs, while Real Sociedad's Alex Remiro and Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos are also linked with moves. Additionally, Largie Ramazani is reportedly on the radar of multiple Premier League sides.
