FootballTransfers runs through the biggest rumours and gossip from 28 October, including the latest updates on Desire Doue, Alex Scott and Alexis Mac Allister.

Doue going nowhere

Desire Doue is in positive contract talks with PSG, as per TEAMtalk.

The reigning European champions are keen to tie the 20-year-old down to a new long-term contract beyond 2029, with discussions thought to be advancing. Doue has no intention of leaving PSG.

It is asserted that Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City have all been monitoring the France international, but a transfer is out of the question. An extension would spell the end of what little hope they might have had of poaching the former Rennes wonderkid.

Scott confidence

Chelsea are growing confident of signing Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott in January, Ben Jacobs understands.

The Blues are in ongoing talks with their Premier League rivals over a potential mid-season move after already attempting to sign Scott in the summer. Liverpool remain interested but have "less urgency" to make a winter move.

Scott has turned down several contract offers from Bournemouth and is believed to be keen to leave the club. However, he won't be allowed to go cheaply, with the Cherries demanding as much as €120 million.

Real Madrid get serious over Mac Allister

Real Madrid have made Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister a top target for 2027, Sky Germany reports.

The Argentina international is not expected to extend his contract at Anfield, which means that he will likely be sold next year. Mac Allister's current deal expires in 2028. Liverpool fully plan to sign a new midfielder and are willing to sacrifice the 27-year-old.

Real Madrid, too, will add at least one new player for the engine room, and Jose Mourinho has become infatuated with Mac Allister, who was already briefly linked with the LaLiga giants in the summer.

Fernandes to Milan?

AC Milan could make a move for Man Utd captain Bruno Fernandes, according to Calciomercato.

A rift has developed following the Portuguese's public criticism of under-pressure head coach Michael Carrick, and a departure in 2027 can no longer be ruled out. Fernandes' contract expires next summer, but there is a club option for an additional year.

Former Red Devils boss Ruben Amorim would be keen to bring the playmaker to Milan. Despite being used in a role that failed to get the best out of him, Fernandes was a key ally of Amorim during his disappointing spell at Man Utd.

Barcelona back in for Bergvall

Barcelona have reignited their interest in Tottenham midfielder Lucas Bergvall, TEAMtalk writes.

The Sweden international had initially requested to leave Spurs this summer before changing his mind and signing a new contract. However, despite being promised a prominent role in Roberto de Zerbi's team, Bergvall is struggling for minutes.

This is attracting the attention of suitors, most notably Barcelona, who had already wanted to sign the 20-year-old when he was leaving Djurgarden in 2024. Reports in Italy already suggested last week that the Blaugrana and Serie A clubs had begun keeping tabs on Bergvall.
