There's so much drama going on in the transfer window, from Arsenal fans keeping their big ears to the wall, waiting for the outcome of the rumored deal between Vinicius Jr.'s camp and Chelsea, looking for a calm old head, and journalists trading words over transfers. We're back with stories you would find exciting.

Nigerian striker Tolu Arokodare will join Ajax Amsterdam, according to reports. Following the recent training ground bust-up and the failed Fiorentina move, the Wolves striker will head to Ajax on loan with a €22m obligation to buy. Wolves will also earn bonuses if the Dutch club qualifies for European competitions.

Despite conflicting reports from different outlets about the destination of RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande, the Ivorian was spotted in Leipzig earlier on Monday, with the club sending messages to trigger-happy journalists stating that their player is still at the club.

Real Madrid is confident of closing out a €100m deal for the winger, but Leipzig wants more on bonuses, which is why the deal hasn't been completed. Keep an eye on this one, as it could have a huge bearing on the destination of Vini Jr.

The association of broke clubs, Italy chapter, is monitoring the situation of former Manchester City defender John Stones. Inter Milan will meet with the defender's camp this week to discuss a two-year deal on a free transfer, while Juventus has already spoken to the player's agent.

Arsenal's unofficial legend, Eli Junior Kroupi, has emerged as Barcelona's alternative to Julian Alvarez. Bournemouth insists on not selling the Frenchman, whose goal against Manchester City in May handed Arsenal the Premier League title. The Cityzens are also interested in the Bournemouth man.

Chelsea wants experience in their team, and their manager, Xabi Alonso, has sanctioned the signing of former Arsenal and Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck. The former England man will be 36 soon. Is that the kind of experience that Chelsea needs?
