Club World Cup, Saudi money, PSR and No 9s: The factors driving the summer transfer market

Over the three days around the Champions League final in Munich, in hotels like the £900-a-night Rosewood, a number of intense meetings were taking place.

For some in football, the regular season’s games have stopped so the real business begins. A strand of modern fans might feel the same.

They are likely to be very engaged over the next few months, because there is going to be a lot of activity.

The Eagles, fresh from winning the FA Cup and with a potential European campaign after qualifying for the Europa League, have targeted the Ivory Coast international.
