The summer transfer window is in full swing, with Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham all working on squad reinforcements. Key developments include Arsenal's pursuit of Morgan Rogers, Manchester United agreeing terms with Mateus Fernandes, Chelsea targeting Adam Wharton, Liverpool making a bid for Yan Diomande, and Tottenham plotting a shock move for Marcus Rashford.
Arsenal target Morgan Rogers; Declan Rice leads charm offensive
Arsenal are stepping up their interest in Aston Villa playmaker Morgan Rogers, according to the Daily Mail. England teammate Declan Rice is reportedly leading a charm offensive at the World Cup camp in the United States, where Bukayo Saka and Eberechi Eze are also present. Arsenal and Chelsea believe Villa could sell their top asset for around £85 million.
Manchester United agree terms for Mateus Fernandes
Manchester United have agreed terms with Mateus Fernandes and are also interested in his West Ham teammate Crysencio Summerville, who could cost around £50 million. However, key target Sandro Tonali is edging closer to joining Tottenham in a deal that could exceed £90 million. Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain are also interested in Summerville, seeing him as a potential replacement for Bradley Barcola.
Chelsea want Adam Wharton; Enzo Fernandez seeks Real Madrid move
Chelsea are targeting Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton as a replacement for Enzo Fernandez, who is desperate to join Real Madrid. The Blues have no plans to revive interest in Tottenham's Lucas Bergvall, despite his desire to leave due to fears over first-team minutes.
Liverpool make bid for Yan Diomande
Liverpool have made a new bid for Sporting CP defender Yan Diomande, but face competition from Paris Saint-Germain. The Reds are looking to strengthen their backline ahead of the new season.
Tottenham plot shock Marcus Rashford move
Tottenham are exploring a move for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford, according to The I. Rashford is expected to return to Old Trafford after his loan at Barcelona, where a £26 million permanent clause expired. Spurs' offer would be lower than United's £40 million valuation.
Atletico Madrid hit back at Julian Alvarez speculation
Julian Alvarez has publicly requested a transfer from Atletico Madrid in a bombshell interview at the World Cup, with Arsenal among his suitors. However, Atletico released a statement to AS: "There is no amount of money for which Barcelona can buy Julian Alvarez. He will not be transferred to Barcelona. Either they pay the release clause for €500 million (£431 million) or there is no deal."
Thiago Silva rejoins Fluminense
Thiago Silva has signed with Fluminense for the third time after leaving Porto. The Brazilian centre-back spent time in the club's academy in the 1990s and played for the first team from 2006-2008 and 2024-2025. A club statement read: "Some stories will never have an end."
Barcelona consider Benjamin Sesko
Barcelona are considering RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko as an alternative to Julian Alvarez, according to Caught Offside. The Manchester United forward is not believed to be for sale, but Barca are exploring options.
AC Milan target Goncalo Ramos
AC Milan are interested in Paris Saint-Germain striker Goncalo Ramos, according to Corriere dello Sport. The Serie A side could sell Santiago Gimenez to MLS franchise Orlando City and held talks with PSG over Ramos before signing Christopher Nkunku.
