Transfer news LIVE! Arsenal new Sesko breakthrough; major Wirtz update; Chelsea, Man Utd latest

Manchester United look to have received a boost in their bid to offload Alejandro Garnacho this summer, with Saudi Pro League giants Al Nassr interested in signing the winger.

Garnacho is being discussed by Al Nassr as an alternative target to Luis Diaz after Liverpool made it clear that he is still part of their plans when they were sounded out by Barcelona.

Al-Nassr want a top-class replacement for Sadio Mane, who has been told he can leave, the Mirror say they have now turned their attention to Garnacho.

Ruben Amorim has been told his budget for new players needs be beefed up by cash generated from player sales, and Garnacho is a player who could raise vital money.

Tottenham are set to be in the market for a new centre-back this summer and fresh reports in Italy claim Spurs are leading the race to sign Inter defender Yann Bisseck.

Inter are said to be ready to cash in on Bisseck, who played in the Champions League final last month.

Aston Villa, West Ham and Manchester United are also interested in Bisseck but Tuttosport say Spurs are in pole position to sign him.

The report says Spurs could offer Radu Dragusin in a part-exchange deal.

Arsenal’s move for Martin Zubimendi could be under threat from a last-ditch swoop from Real Madrid to sign the Spain midfielder, while the Gunners have also been dealt a setback in their pursuit of Nico Williams.

Diario AS report that Real Madrid have not given up hope of signing Zubimendi and are set to re-enter into negotiations with Real Sociedad in the hopes of striking an agreement.

Arsenal have already agreed to meet Zubimendi’s €60m release clause but fresh reports claim the player would rather remain in Spain.

In another potential blow for Arsenal, Williams is said to be another player who is reluctant to leave Spain if he does decide to leave Athletic Bilbao.

Liverpool’s move to sign Florian Wirtz is a “done deal”, according to the latest reports in Germany.

Bayer Leverkusen are demanding more than £125million for Germany star Wirtz but Bild report that an “agreement is certain”.

The report also claims Wirtz is set to earn around £340,000 a week at Anfield, where he will sign a five-year contract.

Wirtz could undergo a medical next week as Liverpool bid to wrap up what could be a British record transfer deal.

Chelsea have been told they must pay £59million to sign Jamie Gittens from Borussia Dortmund.

The Blues have had an opening offer of £35.5m rejected and Bild report that Dortmund are demanding they stump up a far greater transfer fee for the 20-year-old.

Chelsea want to sign Gittens for the Club World Cup and, with the transfer deadline on Tuesday, the report says they are new preparing their next offer.

Gittens has agreed personal terms on a seven-year contact at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea are closing in on a deal to sign Mike Maignan, with AC Milan ready to “shake hands” over a transfer on Monday.

According to fresh reports in Italy, Maignan has already agreed personal terms with Chelsea and the two clubs are expected to reach an agreement over a transfer fee.

Chelsea were initially unwilling to pay more than €15m for Maignan but Gazzetta report that a deal is expected to be agreed for €18m, which is just over £15m.

The Blues have been able to secure Maignan at a relatively low price because his contract is due to expire next summer.

Former Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has agreed a shock move to join Mexican side Club Universidad Nacional.

The 34-year-old ended last season as Cardiff interim manager and could not stop them being relegated from the Championship.

Ramsey, who made 369 appearances for Arsenal in 11 years at the club, has made it clear he wants to continue his playing career and lead Wales at the World Cup next summer.

Club Universidad Nacional, known as Pumas UNAM, finished sixth in the 2024-25 Mexican league and qualified for the CONCACAF Champions Cup.

Manchester United are considering a move to sign Bayern Munich midfielder Joao Palhinha in a cut-price £25million deal.

Bayern are said to be open to selling Palhinha just one year after they paid £42.3m to sign him from Fulham.

And TEAMtalk report that United are considering a move for the Portugal international as they bid to add some steel and experience to their midfield.

Mauricio Pochettino has ruled out a return to Tottenham to replace Ange Postecoglou.

Thomas Frank is the frontrunner for the Spurs job but Pochettino has been linked with a sensational move back to north London after Postecoglou was sacked on Friday.

Pochettino has always spoken about having unfinished business at Spurs but he says a return is “not realistic” at the moment.

"After I left in 2019, every time that I was free, and the place of the position of the manager or head coach in Tottenham Hotspur, my name is appearing on the list.

“If you have seen the rumours, I think there are 100 coaches in the list. I think, don't be worried about that.

“If something happened, for sure you will see, but we cannot talk about this type of thing, because I think today, it's not real. It's not realistic.”

Tottenham have exercised an option to extend Ben Davies' contract until the end of next season.

Davies' deal was due to expire this summer but Spurs have confirmed the left-sided defender will be staying for another year.

The Wales captain had been linked with a move to Wrexham.

Davies is the longest-serving player at Spurs, having joined from Swansea in 2014 and made 358 appearances in all competitions.
