Brighton & Hove Albion have reportedly joined the race to sign Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard this summer.

However, Brighton are likely to face competitions from two Premier League clubs – Arsenal and Leicester City – to sign him.

Leeds United are preparing to sign a replacement for Ezgjan Alioski, who is expected to leave this summer. The experienced full-back is out of contract and has not signed an extension with the Premier League club yet. According to journalist Ignazio Genuardi, Leeds have identified Brest defender Romain Perraud as a potential target. The journalist claims that Leeds are looking at the 23-year-old as a priority transfer target and discussions are currently ongoing between the two clubs regarding a summer move.

West Ham have spoken to 23-yr-old’s representatives, four other PL clubs keen
West Ham United are keen on signing Spartak Moscow midfielder Alex Kral. According to Sky Sports, five Premier League clubs are interesting in Kral. West Ham have already spoken to the player’s representatives. The opportunity to link up with Vladimir Coufal and Tomas Soucek could convince the 23-year-old to move to the London club this summer. All three players will soon join up with the Czech Republic squad for the European Championships, and the Hammers duo could play a key role in the transfer. There is no doubt that Kral is a talented player, but it is unclear how David Moyes would accommodate him in his starting line-up. The defensive midfielder would probably be behind Declan Rice and Soucek in the pecking order at West Ham. A player of his quality will want to play regular first-te...

Confirmed: Liverpool FC has not activated the €23m release clause for Ozan Kabak. A permanente deal with #LFC is unlikely. The 21-year-old Turkish centre-back is targeted by RB Leipzig and Leicester City. #S04 urgently need to sell him this summer. @ozankabak4 — Patrick Berger (@berger_pj) May 25, 2021 The Turkey international spent the second half of 2020-21 on loan at Liverpool, featuring in 13 games before injury struck.

West Ham likely to submit an offer to 107-cap international this summer
Chelsea striker Olivier Giroud is set to leave the Premier League club when his contract expires this summer, and he on the radar of West Ham United and AC Milan. According to Eurosport, the Hammers have been following the 107-cap French international for some time and are likely to submit an offer in the coming weeks. Milan are also looking to finalise a potential agreement with the veteran forward. The former Arsenal star has struggled to hold down a regular starting berth at Chelsea this season, and he will want to join a club where he plays more often. The Hammers could certainly use a towering centre forward like him, and he could be a quality short term addition. Michail Antonio has done a reasonably good job for the Hammers as a striker, but David Moyes must bring in an upgrade if h...

Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Lille defender Zeki Celik this summer. According to L’Equipe, the 24-year-old has been on the two English clubs’ radar since the 2018/19 season.

SL View: Celik would sort out a major weakness for both clubs Both English clubs could definitely use a quality right-back, and Celik has been impressive for the French outfit in their title-winning campaign. Everton need to find a long term replacement for Seamus Coleman, while Tottenham must find upgrades on Serge Aurier and Matt Doherty. The defender has contribute...
‘Does that mean he’s leaving, pls stay’ – Some NUFC fans react to ASM’s post
Newcastle United attacking midfielder Allan Saint-Maximin has been linked with Roma, with the Italians’ new manager Jose Mourinho an admirer of his style of play. The Frenchman is expected to attract more suitors this summer, but the Magpies are not looking to let their best player leave after just two seasons. Newcastle currently value Saint-Maximin at around £70 million, and that is likely to scare off Roma and other interested clubs. The 24-year-old ended 2020-21 with three goals and four assists in 25 Premier League games, but he brings more than his contributions in the final third to the table. The winger gets Newcastle fans off their seats with his pace and ability to beat his markers with ease, and it is not surprising to hear that Mourinho wants him. Saint-Maximin took to Instagra...

‘Thank you for your support’ – Spurs man sends message as appointment ends
Tottenham Hotspur under-23s manager Ryan Mason was appointed as the first-team manager on an interim basis following the departure of Jose Mourinho last month. The 29-year-old kicked off his stint in the dugout with a 2-1 win over Southampton, but could not help Spurs end their 13-year trophy drought, with Manchester City narrowly pipping his side to the FA Cup title four days later. Tottenham lost two and won three of their next five games under Mason, clinching seventh place in the Premier League to qualify for the Europa Conference League. The North Londoners are looking to bring in a permanent manager this summer, and the 29-year-old has ended his role as interim boss. Mason is proud to have been in charge of his childhood club for a little over a month, and has taken to Twitter to mes...
Journalist claims 24-yr-old ace has chosen Tottenham as the team he wants to join
Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move for 24-year-old Danish international Joachim Andersen in recent weeks. According to Jack Pitt Brooke from the Athletic, the defender has now chosen Spurs as the club he wants to join this summer. Andersen has been outstanding for Fulham during his loan spell in the Premier League, and his parent club Lyon are willing to cash in on him. It was previously reported that the defender would cost around £25 million, and it is unclear whether Spurs are willing to pay that much. Andersen has proven his quality with a struggling Fulham side this season, and there is no doubt that he would be a quality long term addition to Tottenham’ defence. With Davinson Sanchez expected to leave the club and Toby Alderweireld on the decline, the Londoners must look ...

Arsenal’s longest-serving player Hector Bellerin could be on his way out of north London in the upcoming transfer window.

The defender has been plagued by injuries over the past few seasons but remains a valued member of the squad. The 26-year-old has a few options to choose from as there are several clubs interested in signing him. This includes two of the biggest teams in Europe – Paris Saint-German and AC Milan. Bellerin was wanted by the French giants last year, but Mikel Arteta persuaded the defender to extend his stay in north London. However, the situation is different now, and Les Parisiens have reignited their interest. There are also reports statin...
Reviewing Eight Possible Transfer Targets For Arsenal
Arsenal went into their final game of the season with a chance of qualifying for the Europa Conference League. Tottenham Hotspur’s victory at Leicester City ended their hopes, leaving the Gunners with plenty of things to ponder this summer. There is a clear need for reinforcements if Arsenal want to force their way back into the upper reaches of the Premier League. Let’s take a look at the players who might end up at the Emirates Stadium next season. Martin Odegaard The on-loan Real Madrid midfielder has been one of the bright sparks this season. Slotting into central midfield, the Norwegian has shown shades of former Gunner Mesut Ozil with his passing range. Sorting out a deal will be tough because it appears that Madrid want to keep him. Even if they were to sanction a sale, they would w...
