Manchester United’s pursuit of Frenkie de Jong throughout the summer continues, although the club will meet the midfielder for talks in a last-ditch attempt to persuade him to join after Barcelona’s tour of the United States.
The Red Devils are also on the hunt for a striker and a right-back and have been offered someone in the latter department in Benjamin Pavard, who is also being targeted by Chelsea. However, as things stand, United are reportedly not interested in a deal.
Newcastle, meanwhile, are in negotiations with Chelsea to sign Timo Werner on loan. His former club RB Leipzig are also keen, but the striker is said to be “desperate” to prove himself in England, giving the Magpies the upper hand.
Several other big Premier League clubs will be active in the coming weeks in the transfer market, with Tottenham linked with Nicolo Zaniolo and Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta confirming he is still working on deals to bring new faces to the club.
Liverpool, Everton and West Ham may also be busy, while plenty of movement is expected across Europe as we head into the final month of the window.
