Joao Felix agreed a 5 year contract with Atleti, player will be unveiled this week.

Everton agree 22m fee for Gomes.

Hummels also completed his move back to Dortmund. Weird one that, basically Dortmund gave Bayern the players they need during their peak and then get them back when they are old and dusted. Next should be Lewandowski in 1 or 2 years time.

Feels like Ndombele is definitely moving this summer. Hope it’s to RM and not to MU or TH.

Won’t be Juve if they have Ramsey and Rabiot for free. They’ll be laughing. What a fucking summer.

They behave embarrassingly for an elite club. Was going to call them Poundland cunts but even that isn't accurate!

Bosman opened up this avenue for them to manage their resources more efficiently. Pogba, Ramsey, Pirlo, Coman, Alves, Rabiot. Those are all players who could've come to Arsenal and in some cases even left Arsenal. Except we are asleep at the wheel. THAT is embarrassing.

They're going to Juve to win things

Romeo Agresti [very reliable for Juve] on the midfield situation at Juve: Rabiot very close to signing with Juve, deal could be done this weekend and would not rule out a Pogba or Milinkovic-Savic transfer. Khedira and Matuidi could be sold as they do not fit Sarri's style of play.

We should be all over this. Can finally get Khedira in here.... 😆 . Nah, but we should get Matuidi if he is sold.

Maybe they'd sell us that Welsh lad they've got, probably cost upwards of £40m though

With the salary he'd demand and him getting injured all the time, I don't think this is a transfer we should look into.

Long-winded article

Rumours of them trying to get PSG to do a swap deal with Dembele + cash for Neymar.

Now that rumour has progressed to Coutinho + €100m for Neymar.

That's a bad deal for PSG.

Juve throwing their hat into the de ligt sweepstakes

Some squad Juve are putting together.
Bayern Munich-style domination on steroids.
They may as well give them the next 3 Serie A titles right now.

Matthijs de Ligt decides to sign for Juventus from Ajax
Fee expected to be in region of £62m, with Mino Raiola asking Juve to make De Ligt their second-highest-paid player

Not sure how reliable that skysports article is, these days just put up any ol rumour.

As for Juve, yes they're building a great squad. Surprised they went for Sarri though, his style is a bit repetitive and while easy on the eye doesn't strike me as the coach who will win them the CL. I think that is what the club desperately want now, nobody close domestically but keep falling just short in Europe.

Too right about skysports but remember they are Murdoch owned so the truth is not their thing.
Look at this rubbish they are apparently reporting

As if we have £50m to waste on a Newcastle flop.

In newspapers’ defense, transfers have never been the place to apply best practice in checking sources and facts. About the only rule you can apply is to not openly fabricate a rumour. Beyond that everything is fair game if you see a player, one of his agents, and a club involved in the story.
