Keep up to date with all the latest summer window news, rumours and gossip
The summer window does not open for over a week, but the likes Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Manchester United and Liverpool and Manchester United are all hard at work ahead of a busy few months. The Gunners will not rest on their laurels after winning the Premier League, and are dreaming on signing Julian Alvarez and Morgan Rogers, have interest in Eli Junior Kroupi and are in talks to sign wonderkid Jeremy Monga from Leicester. Morgan Gibbs-White is an alternative if Rogers interest fails.
They will face competition for their two main targets, with Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain also keen to snap up Alvarez, while top-flight rivals Chelsea, Manchester United and Man City all also want Rogers, who could more than £100million. Chelsea could turn to Adam Wharton if a move for Rogers fails, while both Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella consider exits. Man Utd are set to announce the signing of Atalanta for midfielder Ederson for around £39millio.
Spurs are expected to confirm Marcos Senesi's arrival, having announced Andy Robertson's free transfer from Liverpool. Savinho and Jan Paul van Hecke are also of interest. Liverpool have told Bayern Munich to end their interest in Rio Ngumoha, but hope to strike a deal for RB Leipzig winger Yan Diomande and could trigger the release clause of Sporting star Francisco Trincao. Real Madrid want to sign Michael Olise or Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for around £130m. Follow the latest transfer news, gossip and rumours live below!

Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise was identified in some quarters as the mystery signing Real Madrid president Florentino Perez wants to make if, as expected, he wins re-election.
But TEAMtalk now report that the player is, in fact, Paris Saint-Germain star Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
Madrid have €150 million (£130m) burning a hole in their pockets, and the Georgian winger has emerged as the leading candidate behind Perez’s recent promise to pursue a major summer signing.
TEAMtalk claim that preliminary discussions have already taken place, with optimism inside Madrid that Kvaratskhelia would be interested in a move to the Santiago Bernabeu.
However, convincing PSG to sell remains a significant obstacle.

Manchester United see Morgan Rogers as their dream long-term successor to Bruno Fernandes.
According to Manchester Evening News, Aston Villa expect their No10 to be the subject of huge interest this summer - with Arsenal and Chelsea also vying for his signature - and United are now in the mix.
Man Utd want to sign a left-winger this summer, and Rogers fits the mould along with Everton's Iliman Ndiaye who could be a cheaper alternative.
United had interest in RB Leipzig's 19-year-old Yan Diomande earlier this year, but Liverpool are now firmly in pole position in that race.

Chelsea are preparing for the possibility of losing Marc Cucurella this summer as Atletico Madrid step up their interest in the Spanish left-back.
While the Blues are not actively seeking to sell, they would reportedly consider offers exceeding £40million.
TEAMtalk report that Cucurella is said to be open to returning to Spain, with Atletico leading the race despite interest from Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich.
Chelsea have already identified potential replacements, including Juventus defender Andrea Cambiaso, Eintracht Frankfurt youngster Nathaniel Brown and Bayer Leverkusen star Alejandro Grimaldo.

Arsenal are considering Nottingham Forest midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White as an alternative to Aston Villa star Morgan Rogers.
The Gunners admire Rogers, but face strong competition from Paris Saint-Germain, who are also tracking the England international.
The Sun report that with Villa reluctant to sell, Arsenal have identified Gibbs-White as alternative option. The 26-year-old shined for Forest this season, after a move to Tottenham collapsed last summer, and will still be a tough deal to pull off.

Rossi said: "Robert Lewandowski to Man Utd? Yeah, why not?
“Of course, Lewandowski would be an incredible asset for the young players, providing his experience and big-game knowledge.”
