Some massive names are in the headlines as we run through today's transfer talk and rumours.
Vinicius Junior does not want to sign for Arsenal this summer despite interest from the Premier League champions. The Gunners are prepared to make a bid for the Brazilian, amid his contract stand-off in the Spanish capital. Vinicius has entered the final season of his deal at Real Madrid, but is focused on reaching an agreement on an extension. Diario AS claim the 26-year-old will snub an approach from the Emirates.
Sticking with the Spanish giants,Real are readying their first bid for Rodri. Jose Mourinho hopes an offer of around €50m can persuade Manchester City chiefs to cash in, with Rodri's deal due to expire next summer. The World Cup-winning captain has already turned down an offer of a new deal with the Cityzens.
Over in France,Paris Saint-Germain have slapped a whopping £145m price tag on Bradley Barcola in a bid to ward off interest from England. Liverpool are 'leading' the chase for Barcola, but will need to pay big bucks according to The Times. PSG are using the massive fees for Morgan Rogers and Elliot Anderson as their benchmark for Barcola's price tag.
Chelsea are prepared to return with an improved bid for Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott. The Cherries have rejected a £64m proposal from West London and have no plans to sell Scott. However, Sky Sports say that Chelsea are ready to test their resolve with an increased offer.
Juventus are keen on a deal for free agent John Stones. The England international is weighing up his options after leaving Manchester City and has suitors in Serie A. Gianluca Di Marzio has reported that the Old Lady are looking to tempt the Barnsley Beckenbauer to Turin.
Everton face a fight to hold onto Iliman Ndiaye and Beto. Al-Hilal have opened talks over a big-money deal for Ndiaye, reports Fabrizio Romano, while Nottingham Forest are chasing a deal for Beto. The latter has less than 12 months to run on his current contract with the Toffees.
