Real Madrid scouting Newcastle duo Alexander Isak and Bruno Guimaraes – Paper Round

Real Madrid will reportedly send a scout to watch Newcastle duo Alexander Isak and Bruno Guimaraes in the UEFA Champions League match with Paris Saint-Germain this week.

The Daily Mirror cover the story, first reported by Spanish outlet Defensa Central.

Eddie Howe’s side will meet the Ligue 1 giants on Wednesday at a sold-out St James’ Park. Among the attendees will be a scout from Real Madrid, who will also keep an eye on long-term target Kylian Mbappe, according to the report.

Quoting Defensa Central, the Mirror article states Real Madrid “are sending their chief scout Juni Calafat to 'monitor' Mbappe when he takes on Newcastle."

The report also adds "that Calafat will be taking a closer look at both Isak and Guimaraes".

Manchester United target Adrien Rabiot has been convinced to stay at Juventus, claim the Mail.

And now the Serie A giants are “working on a new long-term contract” for the French midfielder,” states the outlet.

The story continues: “The 28-year-old agreed a one-year deal with the Serie A giants and is now expected to sign-off on a fresh deal with Juventus in a complete U-turn after previously signalling his interest in leaving the club, as reported by Tuttosport.

“A contract negotiating meeting between Juventus' board of directors and Rabiot's representative and mother, Veronique, are planned for November.”

Rabiot is highly thought of at Juventus, where he has made 190 appearances, helping the club win the Scudetto in 2019/20.

The Mirror claim Arsenal “retain an interest” in in-form Wolves forward Pedro Neto.

However, his “growing importance at Wolves will complicate any potential transfer deal this winter.”

Neto has started the season in red-hot form, registering four assists and scoring once in just seven appearances.

“Neto - represented by super-agent Jorge Mendes - is a self-confessed Arsenal supporter and was the subject of a transfer enquiry that was immediately rebuffed by Molineux chiefs this summer,” states the article.

It adds: “Now he appears to be indispensable at Wolves and already looks crucial to their prospects this season following a challenging start to the campaign.

"The Gunners are long-standing admirers of the 23-year-old, who has made a great impression on both Mikel Arteta and sporting director Edu since arriving in the Premier League with Wolves back in 2019."

Barcelona star and former Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski will have "more offers" from Saudi Pro League clubs in the future.

An article from the Mail reads: "Saudi Arabia will continue their pursuit of Barcelona's Robert Lewandowski as they seek to bring more European talent to the nation, according to reports.

"Lewandowski quickly rejected interest from the Middle East in the summer as he remains committed to Barcelona but will have more offers presented to him in future, as reported by SPORT.

"Barcelona are braced for another offer for their superstar striker who will enter the last year of his contract at the end of the season and could look to cash-in.

"Saudi Arabian side Abha Club have placed the Poland international at the top of their shortlist but face competition from three other Pro League sides who are also keen."
