Keep up to date with latest news, rumours and gossip during the summer window
The summer transfer window is in full swing, and the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester United are already making big moves in the market. The Gunners could wrap up a deal for Morgan Rogers at a lower fee than the £100million originally suggested, while a decision regarding interest in Bradley Barcola has been made if fresh reports are to be believed.
Man Utd's move for Ederson will be made official shortly, with the club also targeting both Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali to bolster the midfield further. However, they face competition from Tottenham - fresh off confirming three defensive signings for an outlay of £52m - who have now started talks with Newcastle for the latter.
Chelsea's priority is a left-back amid links to Lewis Hall and Andrea Cambiaso after selling Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid and the Spaniard could soon be reunited with Enzo Fernandez as reports claim an agreement is in place. Liverpool, meanwhile, have signalled their intent to spend upwards of £85million on RB Leipzig and Ivory Coast star Yan Diomande. Follow the latest transfer news, gossip and rumours live below!

In addition to Morgan Rogers, Arsenal are looking to add around four or five quality signings this summer.
As per Mail Online, the Gunners also want a striker, with Atletico Madrid’s Julian Alvarez admired.
Club Brugge forward Christos Tzolis is on a long list of options to bolster the attacking department, while Bournemouth's Alex Scott has his admirers.
Scott is valued at £80m, but Bournemouth are trying to convince him to sign a new deal, with the prospect of a release clause being inserted into that contract.

Liverpool’s £87m offer for Yan Diomande has been turned down by RB Leipzig.
That is according to the Liverpool Echo, who also suggest that Leipzig have set an asking price of £113m for the Ivory Coast winger.
The Reds smashed the British transfer record twice last summer to sign Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, so have shown a willingness to splash the cash.
But will they go as high as £113m for a player with only one proven season at the highest level under his belt?
Chelsea have opened talks with Juventus for Andrea Cambiaso.
Following Marc Cucurella’s £52million move to Real Madrid, the Blues are actively searching for a replacement at left-back and have identified the Italy international as a key target.
Here comes the sticking point though. According to reports in Italy, Juventus are demanding around €40m (£34.6m) for Cambiaso, which is well short of how much Chelsea are willing to pay to €28m (£24.2m).
As a sweetener, Nicolas Jackson has been discussed as a potential makeweight to help bridge the gap in valuation between the two clubs.

Arsenal are have joined Manchester United, Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain in the race to sign West Ham winger Crysencio Summerville.
As per reports in France, the Dutchman is now on a long list of wide options being considered by the Gunners.
However, Summerville's performances at the World Cup could see his valuation increase.
Prior to scoring two goals in two games for the Netherlands, West Ham were apparently demanding around €50m (£43.3m) but that may no longer be the case.

Manchester City's move for Elliot Anderson could spark a domino effect if finalised.
Nottingham Forest will then, as per Gazzetta dello Sport, target Inter Milan's Davide Frattesi to replace the England international at the City Ground.
To complete the potential triple transfer merry-go-round, Inter will look to complete a deal for Liverpool's Curtis Jones.

Any team on the market for a new forward could get themselves a bargain this summer.
As per Corriere dello Sport in Italy, Juventus are willing to sell Jonathan David this summer and have set an asking price of £26m.
The Canada international scored a hat-trick in the 6-0 thrashing of Qatar this week, earning his nation their first-ever World Cup victory.
Capable of leading the line or operating out wide, David could be a low risk signing for many top clubs. Though, he only managed eight goals in 46 appearances in all competitions for Juve this season.
Felix Nmecha is open to leaving Borussia Dortmund this summer, thus handing Liverpool and Manchester United a transfer boost.
Both clubs are said to be interested in the 25-year-old, who is currently representing Germany at the 2026 World Cup, scoring in their opener against Curacao and then providing the assist for the winner against Ivory Coast.
Despite signing a new Dortmund contract in March, TEAMtalk have reported that intermediaries are actively exploring the market on behalf of the player and sounding out potential destinations should he want a new challenge after the World Cup.
In addition, it is understood that a deal could be possible for around £52million and that figure has put Liverpool, Man United as well as Barcelona and Real Madrid on alert.
Ederson has confirmed that a move to Manchester United is ‘almost all sorted’.
Man United agreed a deal with Atalanta earlier this month to sign the midfielder, who has been earmarked as a priority signing for new head coach Michael Carrick.
Man United will pay a €40.5million (£34.9million) fixed fee plus €4.5m (£3.8m) of potential bonuses, while Ederson has been presented with a four-year contract which includes the option of an additional 12 months.
Speaking to Tuttosport,after Brazil's 3-0 win over Haiti, Ederson provided a transfer update.
He said: “It’s practically almost all sorted.
“I have to make the most of this moment. I am here and it is a wonderful thing, something you must always live to the fullest.”

Bradley Barcola is one of several names being linked with a move to Arsenal this summer, with the Premier League champions planning to bolster their attacking options.
The Frenchman has two years remaining on his contract at the Parc des Princes, but it has been reported that the European champions are open to a sale.
Fresh reports now claim Mikel Arteta has approved a move for Barcola and the Gunners are now weighing up a formal approach which may include an opening bid of €80million (£69.3million).

Manchester City are close to reaching a financial settlement with Chelsea that will enable them to appoint Enzo Maresca as their manager, according to the Guardian.
Standard Sport revealed last month that Maresca had agreed an initial three-year deal in principle to succeed Pep Guardiola at the Etihad Stadium.
