TRANSFER NEWS
𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗘: Tom Heaton has signed a new one-year contract at Manchester United.

𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗘: Ethan Ampadu has signed a new contract with Leeds United until 2030.

𝗗𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗗𝗢𝗡𝗘: Bayer Leverkusen have appointed Carles Martínez Novell as their new manager on a contract until 2028.

Manchester United have put contract discussions with Bruno Fernandes on hold for now. Despite the delay, club officials are understood to be comfortable with the situation and plan to begin talks with the Portuguese midfielder over an improved long-term deal before the end of 2026. Fernandes is coming off arguably his strongest season since joining United, but questions surrounding his future at Old Trafford and the prospect of a new contract have once again come into focus.

Manchester United remain interested in signing Real Madrid midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni. He has been identified as a midfield reinforcement this summer with first choice Elliot Anderson more and more likely to join Manchester City.

Mason Greenwood is expected to leave Marseille this summer after a difficult spell in the final few months of the season. Saudi Pro League clubs are showing strong interest in the Jamaica international ahead of the transfer window. Manchester United reportedly retain a 50% sell-on clause for the 24-year old.

AS Roma are interested in making the signing of Mason Greenwood and are set to join the race to secure his transfer alongside Turkish giants Fenerbahçe and Galatasaray. Manchester United sold Greenwood to Marseille in 2024 for around £26M.

Sunderland hope to beat Marseille to the signing of Charleroi and Algeria midfielder Yassine Titraoui. He's also been linked to Leeds United this week. They, like Sunderland, have followed his progress in recent months with a view to strengthening their midfield.

Everton are exploring a move for Gabriel Jesus this summer, but only if a deal can be struck at the right price. Arsenal are understood to value the Brazilian at around £20M, although the Toffees are reluctant to meet that figure. Jesus' wages are also seen as a major obstacle to any potential agreement. David Moyes is keen to add an experienced striker, but Everton will likely push for a cut-price deal if talks progress.

Bernardo Silva has changed his plans and will now make a decision on his future after the World Cup. The original intention was to resolve things before the tournament, but Silva recognises that nothing has been finalised yet and wants to concentrate fully on Portugal's campaign. As his agent, Jorge Mendes, explained: “Bernardo will decide after the World Cup.”

Manchester City have seen an opening bid for Nottingham Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson turned down. Despite Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis and Manchester City chairman Khaldoon Al Mubarak both attending UEFA’s Champions League dinner in Budapest last Thursday, there is no indication that Anderson’s future was a topic of discussion between the pair.

Sandro Tonali is emerging as strong option for Manchester City if they can't get the Elliot Anderson deal get done.

Rico Lewis is assessing his future at Manchester City, with the 21-year-old yet to decide if he will seek a move away from the club during the summer transfer window.

Khaldoon Al Mubarak: “Pep threatened to quit Man City "100 times" during his decade-long reign as manager.”

Liverpool have joined Manchester United, Arsenal and PSG in the race for Mateus Fernandes. West Ham have informed the 21-year-old midfielder he can leave this summer following internal talks, with the relegated club expected to demand around £80M for one of their most valuable assets.

Liverpool have opened discussions with RB Leipzig as they intensify their interest in forward Yan Diomande. Leipzig have remained firm in their stance that the 19-year-old is not for sale, with any potential deal expected to require an offer exceeding £110M. However, Liverpool may be hesitant to meet that valuation, having already spent around £450M last summer while still needing to address other areas of the squad during the current transfer window.

Andoni Iraola is set to arrive on Merseyside to finalise his move as Liverpool's new head coach. A verbal agreement has already been reached and the Spaniard is expected to put pen to paper shortly after arriving. Iraola is also planning to bring several trusted members of his backroom team to Anfield, including Pablo de la Torre, Tommy Elphick, Shaun Cooper and Tom Webber.

Tottenham Hotspur and Jan Paul van Hecke are close to agreeing personal terms on a contract. The player keen on the move and could be made before the World Cup.

Tottenham Hotspur have made an offer for Brighton & Hove Albion centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke. Brighton rejected the initial bid as it fell short of their valuation, though talks between the two clubs are still ongoing.

🚨Here’s what you need to know about Arsenal’s selling strategy, and the list of players who could depart the club this summer:

First, Arsenal want to sell Gabriel Jesus for £20m for Gabriel Jesus [David Ornstein ].

- Gabriel Martinelli. The winger has one year remaining on his contract. While the club does have the option to extend until 2028, they typically prefer to address contract issues before reaching that point. It looks as if Arsenal will have to determine this summer whether to sell or extend the 24-year-old’s deal.

- Leandro Trossard is in a similar position: Arsenal adjusted his contract to improve his salary last summer, but his deal is still set to expire in just over 12 months’ time.

-Ethan Nwaneri, who spent the second half of last season on loan at Marseille, could be considered a potential sale. As an academy player, any fee received would be booked entirely as profit.

-Fabio Vieira: Hamburg want to bring him back and are looking into re-negotiating the price for a permanent deal, which is believed to be worth around €20m. The Portuguese midfielder is keen to stay at the Bundesliga club.

-Christian Norgaard: Arsenal will listen to offers for Christian Norgaard. Although a valued and influential member of the squad, he has struggled for game time in the Premier League and Champions League.

-Kepa: When Arsenal signed Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea last summer, a release clause was inserted into the deal, which allows the 31-year-old to leave if Arsenal recoup the £5m they paid for him.

If a compelling offer to be a No 1 elsewhere presents itself, Arsenal may need to enter the goalkeeping market once again

-Reiss Nelson: He has returned from his loan at Brentford and is expected to be sold.

Arsenal hope that becoming champions will help them drive premium prices for any outgoing talent. []

The Full List of The World Cup Fixtures 📃🏆

🚨BREAKING: The 2026 Community Shield will feature Arsenal facing Manchester City at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on Sunday, August 16 at 3pm.

Santi Cazorla has defended Declan Rice's athletic ability after making a surprising selection during a recent interview.

When building his ideal midfielder, Cazorla chose Rice for pace. The interviewer immediately questioned the decision, saying: “Declan Rice for pace? You think he’s fast?”

Cazorla was unbothered by the reaction and replied: “You don’t think he’s fast, but he’s fast for sure.”

🔴⚪ So let me understand this correctly.

Daniel Siebert is not good enough to referee a single group-stage game at the World Cup this summer. But he WAS good enough to referee the UEFA Champions League Final.

...the match fixing is clear.

First— he books Bukayo Saka for a 50/50 challenge. Angrily. Like Saka offended him personally. A yellow card served with attitude.

Again— he stops Saka from taking a corner in the dying seconds of the first half. A corner. With a goal-bound move developing. I have watched football for years. I have NEVER seen a referee halt a corner kick for that reason. Never. Not once. Embarrassing doesn't begin to cover it.

And then— the one that ended our night.

Madueke is hauled down inside the eighteen yards. Clumsily. Clearly. The kind of challenge VAR was literally invented for. Daniel Siebert waves it away. No foul. No penalty. Nothing.

After watching that nonsense👀 FIFA have dropped Daniel Siebert from the list of referees for the World Cup this summer which to me is a clear indictment.

Think about that for a moment.

Learned he spoke with PSG president in private at half time. Makes total sense. 😂

For that performance on Saturday, Daniel Siebert will go very far. Just not to America in the summer.

Karma doesn't write letters. It doesn't send warnings. It just arrives.

And it came fast for Daniel Siebert.

Arsenal has seen a 60% rise in their squad going to the World Cup since the previous World Cup.

2022: 10 players
2026: 16 players
Up by 60%

Arsenal has a brilliant squad.
