The 18-year-old Genk netminder is seen as a \"buy low, sell high\" investment by the Bavarians, given his future potential. Brughmans is reportedly on his way to Liverpool, with a transfer fee of around 35 million euros. Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly interested in AC Milan winger Christian Pulisic, with interest also from other clubs in the USMNT. FC Köln has also secured Tottenham winger Mikey Moore on loan with a return clause in June 2027. Bayern Munich stars Dayot Upamecano and Aleksandar Pavlović were named to Kicker's Bundesliga Team of the Week. Lionel Messi is reportedly considering another Ballon d’Or win, citing his performance in the international retirement match and a stomping of Montreal. Fiorentina are in discussions with Manchester United over a potential loan deal for Joshua Zirkzee, with both clubs offering him a €5 million loan plus a €30 million buy option clause.",
