Lots of deals are crossing the line across different leagues as clubs try to bolster their squads ahead of the preseason. What deals interest us at this time? Here you go!

Arsenal complete double signings.

Certainly not what most fans were hoping to see, but Arsenal completed the signings of Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga for a fee of £5m and Brentford captain Chis Norgaard for £10.5m.

With Thomas Partey on his way out after failing to agree to a new contract with Arsenal, the Gunners have moved swiftly to sign a league-proven replacement in the 31-year-old Norgaard, who comes with a wealth of experience and a significantly reduced wage.

Pogba returns with a Monaco deal.

Former Manchester United and Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba is back to the game after a lengthy layoff due to a doping ban and injuries.

AS Monaco has confirmed the signing of the showman on a permanent deal for two seasons, and he’s expected to be joined by Ansu Fati in the coming days. Pogba is itching to impress as he eyes a potential return to Le Bleus for the upcoming World Cup.

Cristiano Ronaldo agrees to Al Nassr extension.

At 41 years of age, global superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has agreed to a contract extension with Al Nassr, with the Saudi club set to have the Portuguese player for two more years.

Ronaldo is set to pen a new two-year deal which sees him play at the top with Al Nassr for another two seasons. There were talks of a potential move to Al Hilal, which would have seen him play at the ongoing Club World Cup; however, Ronaldo has decided to continue with the Yellow side of Saudi football.

Alvaro Morata set for Serie A return with Como

Cesc Fabregas has personally spoken to Alvaro Morata, and the celebrity journeyman is set to switch from Galatasaray to the Italian side.

Morata has journeyed from Real Madrid to Juventus, Chelsea, AC Milan, Atletico Madrid and Galatasaray in Turkey, but after a conversation with Fabregas, the Spaniard is now seeking to join Como; keep an eye on this one.

Atalanta lines up Lookman’s replacement.

With Ademola Lookman set to leave Atalanta this summer, the Italian side has lined up Southampton winger Sulemana Kamaldeen, and a fee of £15m could do the job.

Kamaldeen shone brightly in the Southampton ranks in the just-concluded season and was always going to leave after the Saints’ relegation. As clubs continue to circle Lookman, Atalanta is poised to replace him with Kamaldeen.
