Keep up to date with all the latest summer window news, rumours and gossip
Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United are all expected to be busy once the summer transfer window officially opens, though plenty of work is being done behind the scenes. The Gunners, the newly-crowned Premier League champions, are set to spend big again as Mikel Arteta sets his sights on retaining the title and going one step further in the Champions League.
Morgan Rogers, Jeremy Monga and Julian Alvarez have been linked with moves to the Emirates Stadium, while there could be some significant outgoings. Man United, meanwhile, are closing in on the signing of midfielder Ederson after reaching an agreement with Atalanta for a £35million deal which can be partly funded by the official sale of Rasmus Hojlund. Incoming Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso could lose both Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella - both attracting interest from Spain - but Crystal Palace’s Adam Wharton and West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen are said to be on the shortlist.
Tottenham are finalising the free signings of Marcos Senesi and Andy Robertson, and a deal for Savinho has been teased. Liverpool are hoping to appoint Andoni Iraola as their new manager imminently and Manchester City have seen an offer for Elliot Anderson rejected.

Reports in the French press suggest Liverpool are closing in on a move for Bradley Barcola.
They have reportedly held an interest in him for some time, and French outlet Le 10 Sport report the Reds have made a ‘strong push’ for him in this window, and the player is keen on a move to Anfield.
The winger racked up six Champions League goal involvements last season, with a further 11 in Ligue 1.

Manchester City have shut down rumours linking Erling Haaland with a move to Real Madrid, saying there is “no chance” such a move could come to fruition.
Star striker Haaland is the envy of Europe after he cruised to the Premier League golden boot this season, netting 27 goals in 35 appearances.
But the Norwegian, who is currently gearing up to represent his nation at the World Cup for the first time, has been caught up in a game of political bluff.
Real Madrid presidential candidate Enrique Riquelme has promised to deliver Haaland to the Bernabeu should he be installed.
City, however, are having absolutely none of it.

Arsenal, who won the Premier League this season and were Champions League finalists, have been linked with the Italy midfielder for some time.
