TRENDING RUMORS
- Arsenal have submitted an initial bid for Chelsea forward Noni Madueke, according to Fabrizio Romano. The offer is a £50 million package with add-ons included, but Chelsea reportedly want a fixed fee of more than £50m, with Anthony Elanga's expected £55 million move to Newcastle United and similar deals as reference points. A source told ESPN on Monday that talks between Arsenal and Chelsea are ongoing and very positive, and that a deal could be completed by the end of the week.
- Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Nottingham Forest and West Ham United all remain keen on signing Southampton's Tyler Dibling, Sky Germany reports. The forward's transfer is valued at around the £60 million mark by the Championship club, although they are yet to receive a formal offer. Several inquiries have been lodged over the 19-year-old, who lit up the Premier League last season, as his deal expires in June 2027. The Saints could choose to cash in this summer -- rather than risk losing him on a free transfer.
- Liverpool winger Luis Díaz is now open to a move to join Bayern Munich, according to Christian Falk. Diaz, 28, has been a priority target for Barcelona this summer but Bayern have also shown interest, despite sources telling ESPN that Liverpool are not prepared to let him go. The Reds have already rejected an opening offer from Bayern, though Diaz's desire to make the transfer could see them consider a second bid of around €60m plus add-ons.
- Turkish club Fenerbahce are set to land Marcus Rashford from Manchester United after a phone call with his old boss Jose Mourinho, according to Fotomac. Meanwhile, Brentford striker Bryan Mbeumo is keen to move to United but the two clubs have yet to agree a transfer fee. The Mirror claims that United have already seen two bids to sign the Cameroon international worth £55m and £62.5m rejected. Brentford are reported to be holding out for a final fee of £65m, so a conclusion to the saga could be close.
- AC Milan have contacted Bayer Leverkusen over the availability of striker Victor Boniface, says Gianluca Di Marzio. The Nigeria international has been heavily linked with a move away from the German side, having almost joined Al Nassr at the beginning of 2025. Milan, meanwhile, could soon have funds to spend on attacking reinforcements, as former club captain Theo Hernández is reportedly on the verge of joining Al Hilal.
COMPLETED DEALS
- Everton have completed the €35m signing of striker Thierno Barry from Villarreal.
- Nottingham Forest winger Ramón Sosa has moved to Palmeiras for €12m.
- Manchester City women have confirmed the signing of Germany midfielder Sydney Lohmann, 25, on a three-year deal from Bayern Munich.
EXPERT TAKE
ESPN's Sam Tighe looks at why Tyler Dibling is attracting attention.
It had all gone suspiciously quiet around Dibling, who spent most of January and some parts of the early summer being linked to Tottenham, Manchester United and RB Leipzig. But now it appears he's back on the agenda of several Premier League clubs, whose budgets and plans will be much clearer now we've hit July.
After barely featuring in Southampton's promotion campaign in 2023-24, the teenager suddenly exploded into the Premier League XI in 2024-25, making it a definitive breakout season. Despite the Saints' struggles, and eventual relegation, Dibling shone brightly on an individual level.
He emerged as one of the country's premier ball-carrying threats, frequently embarking on long, powerful, Jack-Grealish-esque runs to drag Southampton up the pitch. Compared to Premier League midfielders last season, he ranked in the 96th percentile for successful take-ons (2.16 per 90) and 91st percentile for progressive carries (3.07 per 90). The Grealish comparisons were helped along by the fact that, like the City man, Dibling wears his socks low and is fouled frequently.
It should be noted that he's still an obvious work in progress -- the decision-making at the end of his runs must improve and he's not much of a goal threat -- but the talent is there for everyone to see. It's going to be an expensive battle to secure his signature.
