Manchester City star Erling Haaland does not have a relegation release clause in his current contract, according to Saturday's gossip column from BBC News, quashing any suggestion the Norwegian striker could engineer an easy exit should City ever face the drop.
Elsewhere in the transfer rumour mill, several Premier League clubs are reportedly monitoring Atletico Madrid midfielder Marcos Llorente as a potential option, though no formal move has been reported.
Juventus are also said to be considering a swoop for Crystal Palace full-back Tyrick Mitchell, per the same report, with the Italian giants keeping tabs on the England international amid his impressive form at Selhurst Park.
As with all Saturday gossip roundups, these remain speculative items rather than confirmed deals, and BBC News stresses there is no indication any of the moves are close to completion.
