Reports from Calciomercato suggest that both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich are interested in AC Milan centre-back Malick Thiaw. The European giants are said to be keeping a close eye on the 22-year-old as they aim to strengthen their squads in the upcoming summer transfer window. Thiaw’s recent impressive performance against Juventus has only increased the interest in him, despite a stop-start campaign due to injury. Bayern and Los Blancos have had their own injury problems at centre-back this season, making Thiaw an attractive option for both clubs.
Barcelona’s transfer plans
According to Marca, Barcelona is looking to sign Guido Rodríguez as a free agent when his contract with Real Betis expires. However, there are also reports that the 30-year-old midfielder might renew with his current club if a move to Barcelona doesn’t materialize. Additionally, Barca is keeping an eye on Bayern Munich’s Joshua Kimmich, with plans to make a move for the midfielder when he becomes a free agent in 2025.
