Transfer news LIVE!
The summer window is in full flow as Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham all work on refreshing their squads with new signings and outgoings. The biggest move looks set to be Morgan Rogers to Arsenal, but that deal is not expected to progress until after the World Cup. In the meantime, the Gunners are monitoring Bradley Barcola and Ayyoub Bouaddi, have opened talks over Christos Tzolis, and look to wrap up deals for Andria Bartishvili and Jeremy Monga.
Manchester United have agreed terms with Mateus Fernandes, and want to bring his West Ham team-mate Crysencio Summerville to Old Trafford. Key target Sandro Tonali, though, is edging closer joining Tottenham in a deal which could cost ÂŁ90million-plus. Lucas Bergvall and Luka Vuskovic want to leave Spurs, as the club also work on deals for Fernandes, Savinho and, reportedly, Marcus Rashford.
Julian Alvarez have gone public with his desire to leave Atletico Madrid, amid interest from Barcelona, to which Atleti have emphatically ruled out the move. Liverpool have made a new bid for Yan Diomande, but face competition from Paris Saint-Germain, while Chelsea want Adam Wharton to replace Enzo Fernandez, who is desperate to join Real Madrid.

New Arsenal appointment pens goodbye letter ahead of arrival
Real Betis rehabilitation specialist Eneko Angulo has penned an emotional goodbye letter ahead of his protracted move to Arsenal.
Standard Sport understands that Angulo is expected to join the Gunners as head of rehabilitation, the appointment being part of a revamped medical department following the sacking of the clubâs head of sports medicine, Dr Zafar Iqbal.
Iqbal was relieved of his duties after two and a half years at Arsenal, with the process of finding his replacement already underway.
Angulo is not a direct replacement for Iqbal, but he has extensive experience in player recovery and rehabilitation and leaves Real Betis after 12 years.

Chelsea make Lacroix a summer target as transfer priority made clear
Chelsea hold an interest in Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix.
The Blues are expected to make multiple first-team signings this summer, with at least two expected to walk straight into Xabi Alonsoâs starting line-up.
And Standard Sport understands that France international Lacroix features prominently on Chelseaâs list of centre-back targets this summer.
While the Blues are yet to hold serious talks over any potential move, Lacroix is a genuine option this summer.
Defence is one area where Chelsea will bolster their options, having sold Marc Cucurella to Real Madrid and with centre-back a position identified by the clubâs recruitment team as in need of strengthening.

Arsenal youngster Kyran Thompson is in line for a shock move to Tottenham, the Daily Mail reports.
Thompson, 16, joined the Gunners in 2024 for ÂŁ1.1m, but will leave at the expiry of is scholarship contract on June 30.

DONE DEAL: O'Neil appointed Ipswich head coach
It is official, Gary OâNeil is the new Ipswich manager, succeeding Kieran McKenna.
Fernandez Mourinho's top target
In more Real Madrid midfield news, new boss Jose Mourinho has made Enzo Fernandez his top summer transfer target.
The Argentine, 25, was dropped for two games in February after stating his desire to live in Madrid.
Now, Chelsea are willing to let the midfielder go for a fee of around ÂŁ125m.
The Blues are looking at ÂŁ75m-rated Adam Wharton to replace him should that deal go through.

Spurs to reconsider Paz signing
Tottenham may reignite their interest in Comoâs Nico Paz, after reports suggested new Real Madrid boss did not want their former player back.
Paz, who joined Como from Madridâs B team in 2024, has an ÂŁ8.6m buy-back clause in his contract.
Los Blancos are planning to exercise this clause, then sell him on for around ÂŁ50m to an interested party - like Spurs.
The Lilywhites tried to sign Paz a year ago, so may try again for the Argentine as Roberto de Zerbi rebuilds their squad.

Brobbey an option for Spurs, Chelsea, United
Brian Brobbey is another Premier League player attracting significant attention from Premier League clubs, as Spurs, Chelsea and Manchester United are monitoring the Dutch international, Teamtalk say.
Brobbey, 24, scored seven goals for Sunderland as they finished 7th in the Premier League in their first season back since 2017. The striker also scored twice in the Netherlandsâ recent 5-1 win over Sweden.
His goalscoring ability could be useful to those Premier League clubs: Spursâ strike force of Dominic Solanke and Richarlison is unreliable; Chelsea are looking to offload Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap, and Man United need depth as they return to the Champions League.
