At the beginning of May, Tottenham, Newcastle, and Brighton were interested in 20-year-old French-German goalkeeper Ewen Jaouen of Reims. Newcastle is said to be particularly insistent in pursuing him. Chelsea also appreciates his profile and has given him a tour of their facilities. Real Madrid is considering Jaouen as a successor to Courtois, and a transfer could be completed for approximately €25 million. Jaouen joined Reims in July 2024 and has a contract with the club until 2029. He has been capped twice by the France U21 team, and his current Transfermarkt valuation is €12.00m.
