Welcome to Wednesdayâs round-up of all the latest news, rumours and speculation from world of transfers.
In an interview with AD, Wout Weghorst has insisted that he is determined to win Manchester United over enough in his loan spell that they make a permanent move for his services.
Multiple reports in England and France claim that Chelsea are preparing a second offer for Lyonâs Malo Gusto and are optimistic of securing another signing.
But they will find it much tougher to do a deal for MoisĂ©s Caicedo of Brighton, who have placed a ÂŁ100m price tag on the midfielderâs head, according to the Times.
The Telegraph have an update on Newcastleâs window, reporting that they will not overpay for Anthony Gordon and Everton must reduce their ÂŁ60m asking price to even get the Magpies to the negotiating table, while there is also âno chance'â of Allan Saint-Maximin leaving before the end of the month.
Tottenham are facing issues in their ongoing pursuit of Pedro Porro, with Fabrizio Romano claiming that Sporting CP are only willing to accept cash for his services, while Spurs are attempting to insert players into a potential deal.
Further details have emerged on Aston Villaâs failed swoop for Athletic Club standout Nico Williams, with the Daily Mail disclosing that they were willing to part with ÂŁ45m for his release clause and sanction ÂŁ120,000 per week in wages for the forward, who was uninterested in the move.
Relevo believe that Spainâs David Raya has received tentative enquiries from Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea regarding a summer switch from Brentford.
For the third successive day, Portuguese paper Record have a story on the future of Benficaâs in-demand World Cup winner Enzo FernĂĄndez, the latest being that while Chelsea are frontrunners for his signature, both Real Madrid and Barcelona are keeping very close tabs on the situation.
In France, PSGâs bid to replace Pablo Sarabia has led them to Rayan Cherki of Lyon and LâĂquipe report that they have already submitted their opening offer.
With Real Madrid closely linked with a move for his services, Jude Bellingham will not leave Borussia Dortmund for less than âŹ110m this summer, MARCA claim, while Goal also believe that Liverpool âwill go all outâ for him too.
Spanish newspaper Sport believe that there is interest from Cristiano Ronaldoâs Al-Nassr in linking up there with an old Real Madrid team-mate in Luka ModriÄ and they also state that his current colleague Eden Hazard is wanted by the Saudi Arabian side.
The same outlet also report that Barcelona director Mateu Alemany has held talks with agent Deco regarding options in the South American market and among the names discussed was Brazilian teenage forward Victor Roque, who would be open to a âŹ30m move to the Blaugrana.
After coming up short in their bid to convince Milan Ć kriniar to sign a renewal, Inter are focusing their attention on getting four others to commit: Edin DĆŸeko, Hakan Calhanoglu, Alessandro Bastoni and Matteo Darmian, reports Gianluca DiMarzio.
Sevilla have pulled out of a deal for Lyonâs Jeff Reine-Adelaide after medical tests highlighted fitness concerns and it would take several weeks for him to get up to match sharpness.
After El Mundoâs report that Cristiano Ronaldo threatened to sever ties with his representative Jorge Mendes if he could not broker him a move to Chelsea or Bayern Munich after the World Cup, the super agent has issued his response.
And he has kept it short and sweet with his rebuttal to the same newspaper.
