According to a TEAMtalk report, Arsenal is interested in Jordan Pickford. Pickford from Everton is the goalkeeper the Gunners are aggressively looking for in the next transfer window. There will be rivalry as Chelsea also has their eye on the English goaltender. Outstanding since his £30 million transfer from Sunderland to Everton in 2017, Pickford rose to attention in the 2016–17 campaign as he battled to maintain Sunderland in the Premier League. He has thrived at Goodison Park, even with the odd mistake. Everton’s goalkeeper Jordan Pickford is being more and more sought after by Arsenal, with Chelsea showing interest as well.
Arsenal and Chelsea want Jordan Pickford
According to recent rumors, Everton wants to keep summer suitors away by pricing Pickford high—possibly above £30 million. With sixty England caps to his credit, the goalie has been a reliable member of the team for more than six years. Pickford has made 277 Everton appearances and 60 times for the Three Lions. Over his time, he allowed 398 goals and had 75 clean sheets.
The bids they get and Everton’s will to keep Pickford will determine where he ends up in the future. Though Chelsea and Arsenal are interested, Everton’s alleged plan to set a high price may put off prospective purchasers. Should a trade come to pass, Pickford may be acquired by Arsenal to improve their goalkeeping options, while Chelsea could fight for his services to increase the depth of their team. Pickford may remain at Goodison Park, however, if Everton insists on a large sum. In the end, Pickford’s preferences amid the transfer rumours and Everton’s negotiating position will decide.
Alex Remiro news:
Sport Witness, via Mundo Deportivo, indicates that Alex Remiro is very much wanted by Manchester United. The Red Devils are surprisingly looking for a goalie before the summer transfer window. They had contacted the Remiro agent to ask about the Spaniard. The release clause in his agreement with Real Sociedad is quite large—€70 million. United wants to improve its goalkeeping corps, as shown by their pursuit of Remiro. Between the posts, the club seems committed to finding a trustworthy choice. With talks maybe about to start, Remiro may be in the heart of a high-stakes transfer drama in the next months.
Having switched from Athletic Club to Real Sociedad in July 2019, Alex Remiro has become one of the best goalkeepers in La Liga. Originating from Cascante, the 29-year-old advanced through the Athletic Club’s junior divisions but found it difficult to establish himself in San Mamés’ senior team. Remiro has battled with Unai Simón for the coveted Zamora Trophy this season. In 45 games, he has a stellar 20 clean sheets record but 40 goals against. Remiro’s steady work emphasises how crucial he is to Real Sociedad’s defensive solidity.
Would Alex Remiro cost Manchester United a fortune? Calling it is difficult. Though they’re supposedly eying him, it’s a big ask to stump out €70 million for a goalkeeper. The history of United with high-profile acquisitions isn’t always good. Dropping such a weight on a goaltender might also draw criticism since other areas require strengthening. They could bite nevertheless if they’re certain Remiro is the missing component. It comes down to how they value him in relation to the cost. In any event, it will indicate a real desire to bolster their team if they cough up that much.
