Transfer news live: Liverpool target Isak and Guehi, Arsenal get Rodrygo boost, Man Utd eye Donnarumma

Crystal Palace appear to be considering Bilal El Khannouss as a possible target to replace Eberechi Eze.

The club have monitored the Leicester forward this summer and could now go in for him if they do sell Eze.

Sky Sports Germany say that Villa have made a move for Chelsea Nicolas Jackson after completing the sale of Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle.

Florian Plettenberg wrote on X: “Aston Villa have added Nicolas Jackson to their shortlist and are closely monitoring his situation. Talks have already taken place.

“Several clubs are interested. FC Bayern have also gathered information, but a move to Munich is not happening.

“The 24-year-old versatile striker is still on the verge of leaving Chelsea. Aston Villa now there.”

Rasmus Hojlund seems like he could be on his way out of Old Trafford after he was omitted from their matchday squad against Arsenal last Sunday.

The striker has had plenty of suitors this summer with AC Milan, Fulham and now Napoli interested in him.

United reportedly want around £40m for Hojlund but are open to loan deals under the right conditions. Napoli are pursuing the latter due to Romelu Lukaku being out for the next three months.

Now that Benjamin Sesko has arrived at Old Trafford Hojlund may struggle for gametime and a loan may be the best solution for him.

Arsenal have been linked with a few attacking wingers this summer and have already brought in Noni Madueke.

They were invested in Eberechi Eze for a while though he seems more likely to join Tottenham.

Now they are rumoured to be looking at Real Madrid’s Rodrgyo who was also of interest to Manchester City. However, City’s decision to keep Savinho (who was targeted by Spurs) and Pep Guardiola’s desire to reduce his squad means Arsenal may be in prime position to secure him.

Rodrygo has reportedly been told he can leave this summer and Spanish outlet Cadena SER say Madrid’s asking price set is £76.8m (€90m).

Alejandro Garnacho wants out of Manchester United and seemed set to move to Chelsea this summer having allegedly agreed personal terms with the club.

Chelsea however will not move for Garnacho until they have got some of their own fringe players off the books with Christopher Nkunku the big selling point.

Bayern Munich are interested in the forward but want a loan deal while Chelsea prefer to sell him permanently for around £50m.

That is the same price United want for Garnacho who is stubbornly holding out for a move to the Blues.

BBC Sport say that Spurs will ‘accelerate’ their bid for Crystal Palace’s Eberechi Eze within the next 48 hours.

The two clubs have been progressing in talks over the 27-year-old though at times they have been ‘difficult’.

Spurs are now hopeful a deal is within reach with a price rumoured to be slightly less than his expired release cluase of £60m + £8m in add ons.

There is potential for a deal here but it will be driven by Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish.

The issue is whether he finds more value in keeping Marc Guehi on the books for the remaining 12 months of his contract than could be brought in by a transfer fee.

BBC Sport report tha the current figure being rumoured is £35m for the Palace captain to move to Liverpool though talks are ongoing.

There is no agreement yet but the next few days should make the stances of both clubs clearer on whether a deal can be done or not.

It is a transfer that probably needs to happen for Manchester United.

Altay Bayindir’s error against Arsenal on Sunday cost a revamped and renewed United side a point against Arsenal at Old Trafford and PSG’s exiled goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma would improve them immensely.

Donnarumma was again left out of PSG’s squad, this time against Nantes in Ligue 1, after also being omitted from the Super Cup victory over Tottenham.

The Italian has been linked with both Manchester clubs with City perhaps slightly ahead of United in the rumour mill.

Need is more pressing for the team in red though as City have excellent goalkeepers at their disposal in James Trafford, Stefan Ortega and Ederson.

The latter is said to be potentially moving to Galatasaray which will be a factor in their pursuit of Donnarumma.

The saga that has rolled on for most of the summer concerns Alexander Isak, Newcastle and Liverpool.

The Premier League champions submitted a £110m bid for Newcastle’s main forward but that was rejected out of hand and the Reds moved to sign Hugo Ekitike.

They have remained interested in Isak but the weekend’s results prove that Newcastle need his services more than Liverpool do.

The latest in this move is that Liverpool have made Isak their priority for the closing weeks of the window but want the deal done sooner than later.

They’ve set a deadline of next week to get an agreement done with Newcastle otherwise they will move on to other targets.

The former Manchester United captain and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has picked out a ‘glaring issue’ that the club need to solve during the transfer window.

He said: “There is a glaring issue for United that can’t be ignored, and that is that they need to find a goalkeeper, they have to. I am absolutely unequivocal on that.

“It’s really unsettling when you don’t have a dominant No1 who is dominant in the air, who makes a lot of saves in one on one and saves you points when your defenders make mistakes.

“They might have to magic up some more money in the next week or two or do something on loan.”
