The Gunners have already failed with two bids for the 23-year-old. The club are now prepared to meet the Blades’ £30 million valuation for Ramsdale.

Everton ready to sell 24-year-old for just £5m if they land a replacement – report
Everton are prepared to listen to offers of around £5 million for Jonjoe Kenny if they sign a new right-back this summer, Football Insider reports. Kenny has been on the fringes of the first-team squad in recent years, and he was loaned out to Celtic during the back end of last season. The Toffees are searching for a new right-back to provide cover and competition to Seamus Coleman, and they have been linked with multiple names. Kenny was valued at £7m at the turn of the year. With 11 months left on his contract, he could be sold for £5m if a new right-back is recruited. Sportslens view: At the beginning of the summer, the Toffees were heavily linked with PSV Eindhoven’s Denzel Dumfries, and talks were planned after Euro 2020. The Dutchman ended up having a superb tournament...

Thomas Tuchel comments on Romelu Lukaku and Tammy Abraham ahead of Villarreal clash
Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel was asked about Romelu Lukaku and Tammy Abraham ahead of the European Super Cup clash against Villarreal on Wednesday. The Blues ended last season on a strong note with the Champions League trophy, and they now have the chance to win another piece of silverware at Windsor Park. Ahead of the game, Tuchel was asked about the impending arrival of Lukaku, but he refused to confirm the transfer agreement or speak about the striker. He said: “I am absolutely not in the position to announce anything, and I will maybe refuse to talk about players who are not at Chelsea, as we are also in a matchday mindset. “This is not the moment for personal discussions of our squad.” Elsewhere, Abraham has been tipped to head for the exit door. Roma are reported to have alread...
West Ham have agreed deal for €15m star but he wants Tottenham Hotspur move – report
Barcelona forward Martin Braithwaite has the preference to join Tottenham Hotspur over West Ham United this summer, Spanish publication Sport claims. The Hammers are long-term admirers of the Denmark international, and they recently agreed a deal of around €15 million for his signature. Despite the preliminary agreement, Braithwaite has asked for more time to assess his future. He is waiting for an approach from Spurs. Spurs are still uncertain over the future of Harry Kane, and he could make a British-record move to Manchester City in the coming days. In that case, they could reportedly bring in two strikers to fill the void. Spurs have Braithwaite as one of their top targets for the summer. Sportslens view: The Hammers are desperate to add a new centre-forward to their ranks. Michail Ant...
Wolves struggling to offload 23-year-old due to his £65,000-a-week wages – report
Wolverhampton Wanderers are struggling to find buyers for Patrick Cutrone this summer due to his high wages, Football Insider reports. Cutrone joined Wolves from AC Milan two years ago, but he has since made just 28 appearances for the club across all competitions. The 23-year-old spent time on loan with Fiorentina and Valencia last season but barely made an impact as he was a regular on the bench for both clubs. With two years left on his contract, Wolves are aiming to recoup some of the £16 million spent, but there have been no offers on the table. The major stumbling block appears the striker’s £65,000-per-week wages. The Italian is currently one of the top earners at the Midlands outfit. It is reported that Wolves may have to loan him out once again with a salary share. Sport...
Report: Everton could be on the verge of signing Portuguese ace for bargain seven-figure fee
Everton are set to make a £3 million bid for Antwerp defender Aurelio Buta according to a report from The Sun. Toffees boss Rafa Benitez will be desperate to bolster his right-back ranks at Goodison Park this summer. Seamus Coleman will be 33 in October and there have been signs recently that the Republic of Ireland international is on the downward curve of his career. Denzel Dumfries has been linked with a move to Everton all summer. It seems as though Inter Milan may well now be favourites for his signature though.

Newcastle United post healthy financial results despite taking hit in pandemic
Newcastle United posted their 2019/20 financial results and boasted better numbers than the majority of Premier League clubs despite the disruption from Covid-19, says Swiss Ramble on Twitter. The Magpies posted a £26m loss (£23m after tax), considerably down from their £41m pre-tax profit from the previous year, but they did a lot better than most sides. United’s revenue fell to £152.6m, which was down 14% (£23.8m) from 2018/19. Expenses went up by £45m (28%), but the profit on player sales rose by £2m to £26m. Swiss Ramble notes that Newcastle’s suffered a big revenue loss from broadcasting, directly affected by the pandemic – the Toon Army lost £18m (14%) from the previous year’s total of £124m. Matchday revenue also slumped unsurprisingly. They posted £24.8m in 2018/19 and £17.4m in 20...
What the Lionel Messi deal means for Real Madrid and Manchester United
Barcelona made the shock announcement over Lionel Messi’s exit last week after they could not renew his contract due to financial and structural obstacles. The Argentine has since acknowledged that a move to Paris Saint-Germain is a ‘possibility’, and he looks set to join them on a free transfer in the coming days. This could affect the future of two players in Kylian Mbappe and Paul Pogba, who have been fancied to pursue fresh challenges this summer. Mbappe has been reluctant to renew his Paris Saint-Germain contract expiring in June 2022, and there are now doubts whether he will stay with the club. Earlier this summer, Les Parisiens’ prime focus was on renewing the contract of the World Cup winner, but they are now on the cusp of landing Messi. With the arrival of Messi, they will obviou...

Brentford are lining up a move for Blackburn Rovers midfielder Joe Rothwell, Football Insider reports. The Bees have bolstered their squad this summer with defender Kristoffer Ajer and midfielder Frank Onyeka, but they are eyeing more reinforcements. It is now reported that the club have their sights on landing Rothwell, who could be available on a cut-price deal with his contract expiring next summer.

The Saints have agreed a package of around £15 million to sign the former Newcastle United man. Sportslens view: Brentford have done limited business since their promotion to the top-flight, a...
