On this week’s Transfer Talk, we take a look at Josep Bartomeu’s resignation as president of FC Barcelona, and what this could mean for the future of Lionel Messi. Will the Barça captain now commit to a new contract at the Camp Nou, or is this still wishful thinking? There has also been more talk about Kylian MBappé’s contract situation at PSG, with former teammate Adil Rami now saying he thinks the Frenchman has decided to leave the Parc des Princes.

Erling Braut Haaland is apparently back at the top of Manchester United’s wishlist, after it was confirmed that his €75million release clause will come into effect from June 2022 – according to one report, the Red Devils still reckon they can sign both him and Jadon Sancho. Meanwhile West Ham are apparently making moves to secure Declan Rice with a new and improved deal, with Chelsea still tipped to make a move for the Englishman.

Former Inter captain Mauro Icardi could be the subject of a surprise bid from AC Milan, Real Madrid are said to be back in for Napoli star Fabian Ruiz, and Mauricio Pochettino is rumoured to have had talks with an unexpected club!
