Aston Villa must first sort out their finances before they can sign Johan Manzambi, according to The Chronicle.

Newcastle United verbally agreed on wages with the Switzerland international after positive talks. Manzambi, however, did not sign after being asked, and there is now said to be radio silence at this stage, after taking time to consider his options.

The Magpies are understandably disappointed that their deal could be about to fall through. They have a £ 49 million transfer in place with his club, Freiburg, but Manzambi reportedly wants to sign for Villa now rather than join Newcastle this summer.

Newcastle United have agreed to sign Arsenal academy player Kyran Thompson, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The England under-17 winger is said to have chosen them from five proposals and will leave the Premier League champions as a free agent. The Daily Mail previously reported that the 16-year-old was closing in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur. Arsenal spent £1.1million on signing the teenager from West Ham United two years ago.

Aston Villa are finalising the signing of Johan Manzambi, according to The Athletic.

Newcastle United had reportedly reached an agreement with Freiburg but did not reach one with the Switzerland international. Manzambi is now said to want a move to Villa after they intensified their interest in the 20-year-old midfielder.

Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer believes Harry Kane wants to sign a new contract with Bundeliga club, who are equally keen on agreeing an extension, telling BILD:

Besiktas are confident of completing a deal for Leandro Trossard next week, according to Fabrizio Romano.

They have already agreed a £17million move with Arsenal and are offering the Belgium international a three-year contract. Trossard, however, has yet to give the transfer his go-ahead.

The forward is into the final 12 months of his current deal with the Premier League champions, who appear more inclined to cash in on the 31-year-old rather than keeping him around for another season. Arsenal signed Trossard for £27million from Brighton and Hove Albion three-and-a-half years ago and has made 174 appearances since then.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have rejected a loan offer from Fiorentina for Tolu Arokodare, according to Sky Sports.

Trabzonspor are also credited with an interest in the Nigeria international and have reportedly sent Wolves a bid. Arokodare is said to not be keen on a move to Turkey, wanting to stay in one of Europe's top-five leagues, which Fiorentina just about are after avoiding relegation from Serie A last season.

Their offer's loan fee, though, is said to have come nowhere near what Wolves want for their striker, who is under contract for at least under three seasons, and potentially a fourth.

Barcelona want over £40million for Ferran Torres, according to SPORT. Paris Saint-Germain, however, are reportedly unwilling to meet that asking price.

Torres has less than a year left on his contract with the Catalan club and is said to have reached an agreement with PSG to join them this summer.

The former Manchester City player is currently representing Spain at this summer's World Cup, so nothing will happen until after their involvement ends this weekend, either in a final or third-place match. PSG are in the market for a new forward after selling Goncalo Ramos to Milan earlier in the transfer window.

Borussia Dortmund have an agreement in principle with Kosta Karetsas, according to Sky Germany.

The 18-year-old and his family are said to be keen on the move, with personal terms reportedly not an issue. Talks are ongoing between Dortmund and Genk, Karetsas's club, after they turned down an offer worth over £22million, which is still some way short of their £30million valuation of the teenager.

Top clubs across Europe, including within the Premier League, have been credited with an interest in the Greece international this year. However, it appears that Karetsas wants to join Dortmund this summer to develop further.

Galatasaray are signing Lesley Ugochukwu from Burnley, according to Fabrizio Romano.

The former Chelsea midfielder is said to be moving for £25million. Ugochukwu spent last season playing in the Premier League for Burnley after a spell on loan at Southampton while they were in the top flight,

Chelsea signed the France under-21 international for £23million three years ago, but decided to cash in for around £20million last summer. The midfielder will reportedly sign a contract with Galatasaray shortly after they agreed a package with the recently relegated Clarets, in what appears to be their first signing of the transfer window.

Chelsea have made a second offer for Pep Chavarria, according to Simon Phillips.

The left-back is said to be a player who Xabi Alonso put forward to his club as a replacement for Marc Cucurella, who the Blues sold to Real Madrid within days of appointing their new manager. A first offer from the Blues was reportedly worth around £10million and it now appears they have raised that to £15million.

Rayo Valecano, however, seemingly want closer to £20million for the defender. Chavarria signed a five-year contract barely 12 months ago, so they appear to be in a strong negotiating position.

Arsenal and Bruno Guimaraes have agreed on a five-year contract, according to L'Equipe.

Newcastle United's captain is said to have told the club's directors and head coach Eddie Howe about his wish to join the Premier League champions. The Gunners have reportedly made a £60million offer for the Brazil international, with his former club Lyon receiving a percentage of the profit, which explains the French sports newspaper's interest.

They suggest that if Guimaraes goes for £70million, they will earn around £5million four years after first selling him for £40million, because they are due 20% of the profit on any future sale.

Manchester United will announce the signing of Cristian Orozco alongside the impending arrivals of Andrey Santos and Cristian Orozco.

The club are due to complete a transfer for Orozco, with a formal announcement to follow. They are also finalising deals for Darlow and Santos, who will both be unveiled before the end of this month.

Orozco turns 18 on Monday, which is the age at which United can register the Colombian, and will join up with the club's under-21s rather than the first team squad. The teenager is already in England after first visiting Manchester late last year for tennis.

Fulham have reportedly sent a request to take Real Madrid youngster on loan, a deal which will see him link back up with Alvaro Arbeloa.

Argentine outlet El Intransigente claim that Fulham have made formal contact with Real Madrid for a season-long loan deal.

The attacking midfielder is named as a 'top priority' for Arbeloa, who managed Real Madrid for the second half of last season, following Xabi Alonso's departure.

The Spanish boss was unveiled as the new Fulham manager last week.

There is a disagreement in the valuation of Bruno Guimaraes between Arsenal and Newcastle United.

GiveMeSport reports that the Gunners are expected to open formal conversations with the Magpies over a potential deal soon.

However, Arsenal are said to be prepared to offer a price of £60-65 million, whereas Newcastle value the Brazilian at a price of £80-90 million .

If negotiations between the two clubs can close the gap is still be to seen.

Man City confirmed the signing of Jeremy Monga from Leicester City on Saturday, with the 17-year-old signing a long-term deal at the Etihad Stadium.

The agreement will see City pay Leicester a fee of £10 million, plus a further £2.5 million in add-ons.

Monga looked likely to be heading to Arsenal earlier in the summer before City made their move.

Following confirmation of the transfer, the winger took to social media to send an emotional goodbye message to Leicester. He then responded to his move to City.

He wrote: "A new chapter begins. Grateful for the journey so far - now it's time to get to work. Thank you for the support"

Arsenal are showing an interest in re-signing Dino Mavronpanos after the defender suffered relegation with West Ham last season.

The Greek international joined Arsenal in January 2018, but spent most of his time at the club out on loan in search of regular game time. He joined German side Stuttgart permanently in 2023, but returned to the Premier League with West Ham a year later.

Sky Sports reports that Arsenal are one of the sides showing an interest in the player, who is expected to leave the London Stadium this summer.

Journalist Matteo Moretto claims that United full-back Noussair Mazraoui is one of the manager's targets at AC Milan this summer, but talks between the two clubs are yet to take place.

The father of Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has taken to social media following reports that he's told the club that he wants to join Arsenal.

The Gunners are keen to sign the Brazilian this summer, and look poised to make an offer to Newcastle.

The message comes amid the speculation and in the aftermath of Brazil's exit from the World Cup.

Translated from Portuguese, Dick Guimaraes said:

Manchester United retain an interest in Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba, but it is not a deal that the club are working on at this moment in time, reports the Manchester Evening News.

United are continuing their desperate search for midfield reinforcements over the summer transfer window, with speculation that a deal for Ederson has now fallen through.

Carlos Baleba is a name who has been mentioned for the last 12 or so months, after United made contact with Brighton/

However, they were initially put off by the Seagull's valuation of the player.

Leeds United have announced that Alex Cairns has signed a new two-year deal to extend his stay at Elland Road.

The goalkeeper made his debut for the club in the 2011/12 campaign, and after a spell away, returned in 2024.

Speaking to the club website, he said:

Manchester United are more open to reintegrating Marcus Rashford back into the first team squad this season, with positive talks held between the parties, according to the Manchester Evening News.

Rashford is currently away on World Cup duty with England, after their win to make it through to the semi-final on Saturday night. But he is due to return to Carrington upon his return from the tournament.

He spent last season on loan with Barcelona and made no secret of his desire to return to the Spanish club, but they decided against triggering a £26 million buy option.

It's added that a departure from United is still seen as the best option, but a stay is now not being ruled out by the club.

Newcastle United may now have been given the green light to sign Johan Manzambi.

The club have reportedly agreed a £49 million fee with German side Freiburg for the midfielder, with personal terms also sorted.

However, the 20-year-old is said to have wanted to concentrate on the World Cup with Switzerland before making the move.

The Swiss fell to a 3-1 defeat against Argentina in the quarter-final in the early hours of Sunday morning. Manzambi missed the game with a knee injury.

The exit from the competition could mean that a transfer is completed sooner rather than later.

Chelsea are reportedly in 'contact' with the representatives of Adam Wharton over a possible move for the midfielder this summer.

CaughtOffside reports that contact remains, but a breakthrough is unlikely in the short-term.

Wharton has been of interest to Tottenham, Man Utd and Liverpool, but all three are said to have been put off by Crystal Palace's valuation of the player. Spurs stepping away after signing Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes for a combined £185 million

Palace are said to want a similar figure to the £116 million paid by Man City to Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson.

Atletico are said to have agreed a €45 million (£38.3m) deal for the player.

But United are not alone in their interest with Liverpool also making contact.
