Man Utd Transfer News

Man Utd are ready to battle with rivals Arsenal and Manchester City to sign Xavi Simons this summer, with the Dutch winger still facing an uncertain future at Paris Saint-Germain.

Juventus have become the favourites to sign Man Utd's Jadon Sancho this summer, overtaking Borussia Dortmund in the process.

Man Utd could receive a massive boost to their summer transfer plans courtesy of former manager Jose Mourinho, who is looking to bring Victor Lindelof to Fenerbahce.

Newcastle United defender Kieran Trippier has admitted he was close to joining Man Utd following his performances at the delayed 2020 European Championship.

Man Utd target Leny Yoro has spoken to Paris Saint-Germain regarding a possible transfer from Lille.

Barcelona remain interested in signing Man Utd midfielder Kobbie Mainoo, according to reports in Spain.

Chelsea Transfer News

Chelsea are exploring more affordable targets than Jhon Duran and German outlet BILD have named Enzo Maresca’s side as one of the four teams interested in signing Stuttgart hot-shot Serhou Guirassy.

In addition, Maresca sent club scouts to Italy’s match against Albania at Euro 2024 to watch Riccardo Calafiori - his primary defensive target.

Chelsea are interested in signing Atletico Madrid goalkeeper Jan Oblak, according to reports in Spain.

Chelsea could offer Noni Madueke and Trevoh Chalobah to Crystal Palace in exchange for France U21 international Michael Olise.

If the Blues do sign Olise, how will they line up?

Arsenal Transfer News

Napoli’s top transfer journalist has revealed that Arsenal are still in the race to sign Victor Osimhen this summer.

Arsenal have been told they will have to pay Joshua Zirkzee’s agent a monstrous commission in order to hijack the Bologna striker from AC Milan.

Arsenal are monitoring Everton's Amadou Onana as they ponder a possible summer move for the Belgium star.

Arsenal are reportedly willing to offload Kieran Tierney for a measly €11.8 million (£10m) following his loan spell at Real Sociedad.
