Thursday was packed with exciting transfer news as Kylian Mbappe made a massive decision regarding his future.

Plus, Eden Hazard could be set for a shock Premier League return, Mo Salah has received a gigantic Saudi proposal and Arsenal are looking to complete some massive transfers between now and the end of the window. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Exclusive: Palace want Hazard

FootballTransfers can exclusively reveal that Crystal Palace are weighing up offering Eden Hazard a one-year contract to bring him back to the Premier League.

Exclusive: Arsenal pushing to sign Fati

We are also told that Arsenal are keen to sign Barcelona youngster Ansu Fati.

Meanwhile, the Gunners and Monaco are close to reaching an agreement for Folarin Balogun.

This deal will be the first of a late-window exodus that will see Arsenal try to raise as much as £100m from sales.

They may, however, also have to dip into the market for defensive incomings given Jurrien Timber's injury.

Mbappe's decision

Kylian Mbappe is reportedly inching ever close to signing a contract extension with PSG, meaning that Real Madrid will not be able to sign him for free next summer.

As for Los Blancos, Carlo Ancelotti has made the club's transfer stance clear.

Salah receives new Saudi offer

Al-Ittihad have returned with a massively improved offer for Liverpool legend Mohamed Salah, but the ball is in Liverpool's court - will they accept?

Man Utd's window - top or flop?

Speaking of offers, Man Utd's goalkeeper shortlist has been revealed - and they have already sent out two bids!

The Red Devils are still trying to sign players, including Sofyan Amrabat, and Fiorentina boss Joe Barone has now spoken about the Moroccan's future.

Donny van den Beek has meanwhile sealed a Man Utd exit - but not his own.

United fans will be hoping that Mason Greenwood will soon follow suit and he has just aroused interest from the unlikeliest of sources.

In terms of incomings, Man Utd finally have their Harry Maguire replacement.

It must be said, though, regardless of what still happens this window, many of Erik ten Hag's transfers as Man Utd boss have not been great.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Man City have officially signed a player adored by Jurgen Klopp and Kylian Mbappe.

Spanish wonderkid Gabri Veiga is on the verge of completing a Saudi move and Real Madrid midfielder Toni Kroos is not a fan.

Chelsea star Levi Colwill believes that Moises Caicedo is worth every pound despite his horror debut.

A former Chelsea star, however, has slammed the Ecuador international for picking the Blues over Liverpool.

FootballTransfers has exclusively revealed that Man Utd want Ivan Toney, but they will have to cough up a pretty penny to get him.

And lastly, former Arsenal record signing Nicolas Pepe looks set to finally leave the Emirates (for real this time).
