Report: Boost for Spurs as in-demand £150k-per-week star wants to play for London club
Tottenham Hotspur have received a massive boost in the race to sign Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger. According to reports from ESPN, Chelsea are willing to let Rudiger leave the club before Monday’s transfer deadline. The report claims that the Blues would prefer to sell him to an overseas club amid interest from Tottenham. French giants Paris Saint-Germain have shown interest in signing Rudiger, while the likes of Roma and Barcelona are also keen. Tottenham have not made a formal approach as yet but they are monitoring the situation. Spurs are keen to sign Milan Skriniar, and in case no agreement is reached with Inter Milan, they would move for Rudiger. However, Rudiger, who is on £150k-per-week wages at Chelsea, wants to stay in the Premier League, and ideally, he would like to joi...

‘Would be frightening’, ‘We can dream’ – Some Celtic fans react to club’s approach for £25m ace
Celtic have made an approach to sign the Tottenham winger Ryan Sessegnon. The 20-year-old has not been a regular starter at the club since his £25m move from Fulham and a move away from the London club would be ideal for him. Sessegnon needs to play more often at this stage of his career and Celtic can provide him with that opportunity. The youngster can play as a left-back as well and his versatility would be an added bonus for the Scottish giants if they manage to sign him. Sessegnon is a prodigious talent with a massive future ahead of himself. Celtic would have a future star on their hands if they signed him. As per reports (h/t Daily Record), the deal could be difficult to complete because of the finances involved. It will be interesting to see if Celtic can convince Spurs to let...
Report: Newcastle could submit bid for 26-yr-old West Ham target tomorrow
Juventus defender Daniele Rugani has been linked with a move away from the club this summer and it seems that Newcastle United could make their move for the 26-year-old soon. As per Alfredo Pedulla, West Ham and Newcastle are keen on the defender and Newcastle could submit a bid for the player tomorrow. It is evident that Newcastle need to add more defensive depth and Rugani could prove to be a quality addition. The Italian is highly talented but he needs to play more often in order to improve and fulfil his potential. A move to Newcastle or West Ham could be ideal for the defender this summer. It will be interesting to see if Juventus can agree on a deal with his suitors in the remaining days of the transfer window. Valencia are keen on signing the defender on loan but it seems that the I...
Report: Man Utd handed transfer boost, 20-goal star trying to force his move to Old Trafford
Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester United this summer. According to Dagbladet, the player is now trying to force his move to Old Trafford. Manchester United have not been able to agree on a fee with the German club and Sancho missed the German Super Cup game against Bayern Munich earlier today. There were reports that the winger missed out due to illness but Dagbladet claim that Sancho wants the move to happen and the player’s camp will now look to get the deal done. It will be interesting to see how the situation unfolds in the next few days. Dortmund had asked United to agree to the asking price by the 10th of August. Selling Sancho now would be a mistake for them. They won’t have the necessary time to replace a key player like Sancho....
‘Finally closing in on agreeing a deal’: Alasdair Gold provides exciting Spurs transfer update
Tottenham head coach Jose Mourinho is confident that the club will sign a new striker before the end of the summer transfer window. Harry Kane remains the only recognised centre-forward in Spurs’ first-team squad this season. The north London club have been linked with moves for players like Bournemouth’s Josh King, Napoli’s Arkadiusz Milik and Torino’s Andrea Belotti, and Mourinho is confident that Spurs will sign a back-up striker before Monday’s deadline. The Portuguese said: “I am optimistic, but more than that the feeling that I like is that we are trying everything to do it. You succeed or you don’t succeed. It’s like a football match: you win or you don’t win but you give everything and try everything. The transfer market is the...
‘Marcel Brands loves him’: Some Everton fans react after knowing who Ancelotti wants next
Everton fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to express their reaction to reports linking the club with a move for Ben Godfrey. According to reports from Sky Sports, the Toffees have made an enquiry about signing Norwich defender Godfrey. This has been a brilliant transfer window for Everton with Carlo Ancelotti bringing in three quality players in the form of Allan, James Rodriguez, and Abdoulaye Doucoure. However, the Toffees are still looking for more additions, with the Merseyside club keen to sign a centre-back and a striker to their ranks. Everton have been linked with a move for Fiyako Tomori this summer, but it seems Chelsea are reluctant to send him out on loan. As a result, the Toffees have turned their attention elsewhere, and have earmarked Godfrey as a potential o...
Report: Fulham keen on £150k-a-wk Hammers target but there is a catch
According to The Daily Telegraph, Fulham are interested in signing Chelsea midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek on a season-long loan, but any move may depend on whether or not they can sign defenders on permanent deals. Blues boss Frank Lampard is open to letting him leave temporarily before the transfer window shuts, but his options may be limited. West Ham United are also keen on the England international, and are among a number of clubs that have shown a strong interest, but they have been scared by his £150,000-a-week wages and injury record. While Lampard has insisted that Loftus-Cheek is as “fit as a fiddle”, the Hammers have reservations. The 24-year-old needs to play regularly this term to have a chance of forcing his way into manager Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions squad ahead of next su...
Report: Everton have now made first bid to sign 22-year-old…more than club’s asking price
According to reports from The Telegraph, Everton have made a bid worth £26million for Norwich City’s Ben Godfrey. The Toffees are heavily interested in signing Fikayo Tomori, but they fear the 22-year-old won’t be allowed to leave on loan. As a result, they have lined up Godfrey as a replacement and have made an opening bid to sign the Norwich centre-back. The report claims that the Toffees have made an offer to Norwich, worth an initial £20m, plus £6m in add ons, for Godfrey. Earlier today Sky Sports claimed that Everton made an enquiry about the availability of the defender where they were told he would cost around £25m. Therefore, the latest offer from Everton looks good enough for consideration. Tomori has emerged as Everton’s first choice but negotiations over a season-...
Report: Everton now leading the race to sign £18m star…despite interest from PL rival
Everton are leading the race to sign Jean-Clair Todibo, according to reports from Le 10 Sport. A host of clubs including Napoli and Fulham have shown interest in Todibo. But it seems the Toffees are leading the way for his signature. Todibo has been made available to loan by Barcelona, and it seems that Everton are pushing hard to secure his signature before the end of the transfer window. This has been an excellent transfer window for the Toffees, with Carlo Ancelotti bolstering the midfield with the signings of Allan, James Rodriguez, and Abdoulaye Doucoure. Everton have still not brought in the centre-back they badly need. They were heavily linked with Gabriel this summer but the Brazilian joined Arsenal instead. The Toffees were interested to sign Fikayo Tomori, but he ...
Report: Chelsea forward open to joining Bayern Munich before transfer deadline
Chelsea forward Callum Hudson-Odoi is open to the prospect of joining Bayern Munich before the international transfer window closes next week, a report from Sky Germany claims. The England international was heavily linked with a move to the Bavarian giants in January 2019 and he had reportedly agreed to personal terms with the club. However, the move failed to materialise after the Blues rejected a series of offers. Hudson-Odoi has since put pen-to-paper on a long-term deal with the west London outfit, but he has yet to cement a regular starting role. The teenager has made just eight starts in the Premier League since Frank Lampard took charge as the manager last term. Hence, it is unsurprising that he has been associated with a possible exit and it is reported that Bayern could revive the...
