European giants make official bid for Ederson

As Man City shape up for their opening game of the season against Wolves this weekend, they will have to do so without their longterm keeper Ederson. 

Pep announced that the player — who has spent seven years at the Etihad — would not be part of the squad yesterday.

In the hours since, a club have made their first move for Ederson. 

According to Fabrizio Romano, Turkish superclub Galatasaray have made an opening bid for the Brazilian worth at least €10 million. 

City are said to be holding out for a bigger fee, and have time on their side having already secured a deal for Burnley's James Trafford. 

If Ederson does depart, City may look to sign Gianluigi Donnarumma. 

Wrexham planning bid for ex-Arsenal defender

AFC Wrexham are currently making preparations for their first season in the English second division in more than 40 years, and they've already shown they mean business in the transfer market. 

The Red Dragons have secured three back-to-back promotions — all the way from the National League to the Championship — since being taken over by Canadian actors Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds in 2021, and are now within touching distance of the biggest prize of all, a place in the Premier League.  

After signing Josh Windass and Conor Coady, the north Welsh side have now set their sights on one of the most expensive English defenders of all time. 

As exclusively reported by TalkSport, Wrexham are plotting a move to bid for Cardiff City captain Calum Chambers. 

30-year-old Chambers spent seven years with the Gunners after being signed by Arsene Wenger for £16 million back in 2014. 

Just sixth months later, Chambers was nominated for the Golden Boy award.    

He also spent two years with Aston Villa before signing for Cardiff last year. 

Bournemouth make offer for World Cup winner and Atletico Madrid star

Bournemouth have had their defence completely raided by some of Europe's biggest clubs this summer. 

Illia Zabarnyi joined PSG, Milos Kerkez signed for Liverpool, Dean Hujisen has moved to Liverpool, and even loanee keeper Kepa has departed for Arsenal. 

While the sales have helped generate more than €90 million, and have massively raised the profile of the English south-coast side, the Cherries are now at risk of starting next season very light on numbers. 

According to Italian journalist, Matteo Moretto  Bournemouth have lined up an ideal defensive replacement. 

They're planning a €20 million move for Argentine defender Nahuel Molina from Atletico Madrid. 

Molina is best known for scoring during the quarter-finals of Argentina's 2022 World Cup triumph, but the 27-year-old was also a key player for Atleti last season. 

He played 30 times in La Liga last season and scored three goals. 

Alexander Isak goes on strike ahead of Newcastle opening Premier League fixture

Alexander Isak has reportedly gone on strike as per Craig Hope of the Daily Mail.

He 'does not want to train with the squad', thereby ruling him out of the squad for the foreseeable future.

He has yet to receive a fine for missing training, however that will happen, should he miss the match this weekend.

Isak's stance is not understood to change - he wants to leave the club.

A senior club source said to Mail Sport: "It does not have to be like this."

European giant launch official bid to sign Jadon Sancho

A European club have reportedly launched an official offer to sign want-away Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho.

His future at The Red Devils still remains unclear, with the new season just around the corner and the player fazed out of Ruben Amorim's plans.

Spending the second-half of the last campaign at Chelsea, the West London club didn't exercise the option to buy the winger on a permanent basis.

Now though, United are reportedly 'considering' an offer worth £20m for the player from Italian outfit Roma.

Gianluigi Donnarumma's agent issues major update on the player's next move

Gianluigi Donnarumma is on the move this summer.

Posting a parting message to the Paris Saint Germain faithful on X, the giant Italian shot-stopper confirmed that he would be departing the club.

Now, his agent Raiola has spoken exclusively to huge football journalist Fabrizio Romano, informing us of the keeper's next step:

 "Premier League is the right step for Gigio in my view, we’re working on it.

"There are zero talks with Italian clubs. We are still shocked by PSG behaviour with Gigio."

Manchester City reportedly remain 'keen' on the European Champion.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin reaches agreement to sign for new club

Dominic Calvert-Lewin has reached an agreement to sign for Leeds as a free agent as per reports from David Ornstein.

The 28-year-old striker is set to undergo a medical at Leeds' training ground ahead of signing for the club.

Calvert-Lewin announced he would be leaving Everton in June when his contract expired.

The striker spent almost a decade on Merseyside, scoring 71 goals in 274 appearances for Everton.

After announcing that he was set to leave Everton, Calvert-Lewin posted on Instagram: “This isn’t something I chose lightly.

“Everton has been my home since I was 19 years old. It’s the place that saw potential in me, challenged me to grow, and shaped me both as a footballer and as a man.”

Leeds are assembling a team full of giants by all appearances, with Calvert-Lewin the latest physically strong player to join the squad.

Other additions to the Daniel Farke's team include Anton Stach, Jaka Bijol and Lucas Perri.

Liverpool agree deal with Marc Guehi

 According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool have agreed on personal terms with Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi. 

The Reds are confident on agreeing a transfer fee of around £35 million for Guehi, despite the Eagles having rejecting a £65 million offer from Newcastle for the English defender last summer. 

Guehi led Palace to FA Cup and Community Shield wins in the last three months and has been a season-long target for the Reds. 

The deal will see Liverpool's summer spending rise to almost £300 million. 

West Ham to go head to head with Atletico Madrid for the signing of midfield star

West Ham are amidst a major summer rebuild under Graham Potter. 

They've already secured deals for Callum Wilson, Kyle Walker-Peters, and the highly-rated Jean Clair Todibo and are now said to be in the market for one of last season's breakout Premier League stars. 

According to The Guardian, the Hammers are interested in a deal for Southampton midfielder Mateus Fernandes. 

Fernandes (rated at £30 million) is also valued by Spanish superclub Atletico Madrid who are also said to be on the verge of making an offer to the 21-year-old creative midfielder. 

The former Sporting Lisbon star will now have to choose between Champions League football with Atleti or a stay in the PL with the Hammers. 

Spurs plot move to hijack Arsenal transfer target

After a reported attempt to sign Man City's Savinho yesterday,  Tottenham Hotspur are now in the process of pursuing a second deal for a top Premier League player. 

While Savinho had been viewed as a like-for-like replacement for departing club legend Heung Min Son, Spurs are also in the market for an attacking midfielder after James Maddison picked up a season-ending ACL injury in a pre-season fixture last week. 

According to BBC Sport's Sami Mokbel, Tottenham have made an ambitious attempt to sign Crystal Palace attacker Eberechi Eze.  

The 27-year-old England international is a big target for Spurs' bitter rivals Arsenal. 

The Gunners are yet to make an offer as they need to sell Leandro Trossard before they can make an official bid. 

Tottenham are hoping to capitalise on Arsenal's inaction. 

Neither of Arsenal nor Spurs are said to be prepared to meet Eze's £68 million release clause. 

Eze is said to be open to either club, and the eventual transfer may depend on his final decision.
