Bayern Munich board member for sport Max Eberl did not leave any doubt the Bavarians are done for the summer and will not make any other signings.

“I had a smile every time I read transfer rumours this summer. We closed the transfers of Nene Brown and Ismael Saibari very quickly. I thought it was clear that we were done with incomings. I had to smile about the names being linked to us. There’s 0% truth to these rumors,” Eberl said.

The preseason road will be treacherous, though. If injuries occur, Eberl might have to spring into action. Hopefully, that will not be the case.

Real Madrid and RB Leipzig were slated to talk over a move for Yan Diomandé on Wednesday:

🚨🗣️ A new round of talks between Real Madrid & Leipzig for Yan Diomande is expected today.

Leipzig continue to insist on a higher guaranteed fee compared to RM’s previous offers, but there is confidence today could prove decisive.

Yan is respectfully waiting for developments.

An exit for Diomandé will have an adverse effect on RB Leipzig’s chance in the Bundesliga this season, but Die Roten Bullen have always found a way to reload.

Bayer Leverkusen youngster Kerim Alajbegović is reportedly on his way to Juventus:

In two years, will people say that Bayer Leverkusen got out at the right time, or sold too early? Sadly, that is another good, young talent leaving the Bundesliga.

Just a few days ago, Chelsea was the frontrunner for Alajbegović, but that has apparently fallen through (via ESPN):

Chelsea are favorites to sign teenage sensation Kerim Alajbegovic from Bayer Leverkusen, according to the Daily Telegraph. A host of other clubs are keen on signing the Bosnia-Herzegovina international, including Juventus and Fiorentina. However, with new Chelsea boss Xabi Alonso “enthusiastic” to sign Alajbegovic, they appear to be at the front of the queue. The 18-year-old came through Leverkusen’s youth system, before joining RB Salzburg last summer. After scoring 13 goals in 44 games for the Austrian club, he returned to Leverkusen this summer and is under contract at the club until June 2031, but his performances at the FIFA World Cup have already got other clubs interested.

Manchester United are still eyeing Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni:

Manchester United have made an enquiry over a move for Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni, The Sun reports. New Madrid head coach José Mourinho is reportedly willing to sanction the France international’s departure if it helps finance a move for Manchester City midfielder Rodri, with sources telling ESPN that the Spain captain is still a Bernabéu target. United are in the market for a defensive midfielder following Casemiro‘s exit and Manuel Ugarte‘s long-term injury, with Tchouaméni viewed as an ideal fit due to his age, experience and availability.

FC Augsburg might have had all it can stand from Crystal Palace and it can’t stand no more (paraphrasing Popeye is all the rage):

🚨❌ EXCL | FC Augsburg have ended negotiations with Crystal Palace for Chrislain Matsima today.

Two days ago, Augsburg/Matsima’s camp believed they were close to a breakthrough. However, it was never a done deal. The final details regarding bonuses and the payment structure could not be agreed, with Palace refusing to compromise.

Matsima and his agent have been informed of the decision, which was communicated today. Matsima will now travel to Augsburg’s training camp. The club do not expect #CPFC to return with a new offer. @SkySportDE
