It’s that time of the season where everyone monitors breaking news and player movements, we bring to you the peak of the bunch as team try to bolster their squad ahead of the new season.

Bayern need to sell Lewandowski to fun De Ligt deal

Bayern Munich want to sign Mathjis De Ligt and will do everything they can to achieve that but the deal depends on the Robert Lewandowski’s move to Barcelona which is almost certain to happen after the Spanish side activated the second lever that injected fresh funds into their covers.

Juventus are obviously prepared to lose the Dutchman and are already eyeing Arsenal’s Gabriel Meghalaes, while the Gunners will not sell except an unbelievable bid arrives, the conversation will rumble on for long.

Aouar to Betis?

Remember Houssem Aouar? The highly rated Lyon midfielder that Arsenal were on the verge of signing before club chairman blocked the move? He is now on his way to Real Betis.

Lots of sources reported that it was the player’s brother that ruined the deal but the player has gone down the pecking order and no longer hot in the market. Like it happened to Nabil Fekir, Aouar is now being scouted and touted to join Betis for a way lower fee than Arsenal offered two years ago.

Spence to undergo Spurs medical today

Middlesbrough right back Djed Spence is on his way to Tottenham Hotspur after both clubs agreed a fee of £12.5m that could rise to £20m if certain clauses are met.

What this means for the likes of Emerson Royale and Japhet Taganga is left to be seen but it’s obvious that Antonio Conte doesn’t see any of them in his long term plans and the club will happily listen to offers for either of them.

Arsenal to sign Zinchenko after Lisandro snub?

The mass exodus at Manchester City could continue with Arsenal weighing up a bid for the champions’ utility player Oleg Zinchenko following the failures of the club to land Lisandro Martinez who is headed to Manchester United to reunite with Erik Ten Hag.

The Gunners need a left-back cover and could also get a midfielder in Zinchenko as he has played there many timed for clubs and country, although he’s primarily a left-back for Pep Guardiola’s City. The champions will sign Marc Cucurella to replace him if Arsenal lands him.

Cesc to Como?

News breaking out of Italy late on Thursday was that former Arsenal, Barcelona and Chelsea star Cesc Fabregas will sign for Italia Serie B side Como on a two-year contract following the expiration of his contract at Monaco.

Whether the move is the right one for the 35-year-old is another topic entirely but the side that finished 13^th in the second tier of Italian football last season needs a veteran like Fabregas and Denis Wise, former Chelsea administrator is their sole director. It’s not entirely a surprise is it?
