We’ll update the list from time to time as news emerge from leading transfer news outlets across the world of football

 

City means business with Kane and Grealish

We can confirm to you through The Athletic that Manchester City have gone on serious business mode with Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa for last season’s top scorer Harry Kane and fans’ favorite Jack Grealish in what could cost them up to £270m if the figures being quoted are to be trusted.

With Sergio Aguero gone, it’s important for City to sigh a striker and the quality of Grealish means they can’t allow him go elsewhere. Brace up for drama as the transfer window moves into full swing.

 

United, Liverpool, Spurs chase Arsenal target

Arsenal spent the whole of last season chasing Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar all to futility and had to settle for Martin Odegaard on loan from Real Madrid in January; The Athletic and a few outlets have told stories of a new bid but ESPN can confirm that a few rivals have joined the race.

Aouar was rumored to want Champions League football, he won’t get that at Arsenal, he can go to Spurs if he wants the Europa Conference league but with Liverpool and United said to be in for him, the decision is pretty easy for him to make.

 

Giroud undergoes Milan medical

Olivier Giroud is having a medical this morning ahead of his permanent move to AC Milan after Chelsea agreed terms with the Serie A outfit.

The Chelsea forward arrived at La Madonnina clinic around 8am Italian time in a pre-contractual ritual that will see him sign a two-year contract, with a transfer fee of around €1m, plus €1m in bonuses subject to a number of appearances and a qualification for the Champions League.

 

Wolves replace Rui Patricio with Jose Sa

Wolves have signed Olympiacos keeper Jose Sa on a five-year contract. The 28-year-old arrives at Molineux as the replacement for Portugal number one Rui Patricio.

Rui Patricio had agreed terms with Jose Mourinho’s AS Roma and will join the Serie A side when he returns from holiday, prompting Wolves to go in search of another option between the sticks and have now settled for Jose Sa who had a fine season with the Greek side last season.

 

Juve turns down Chelsea’s big approach for Chiesa

Players have their chance to impress at big tourneys and Federico Chiesa took the bull by the horn at the Euros, helping Italy to the title with two big goals and impressive showings which already earned him interests from Chelsea.

The Blues went in with a €100m for the Italian international but Juventus have rejected it, the former Serie A champions have obligations to Fiorentina on the player which they won’t dilly dally over as he has become a jewel but Chelsea are expected to go again.
