Forest beat West Ham to the signing of Lingard


They are paying a substantial signing on fee plus £180,000 a week

That could ruin the dressing room spirit given some are only on £15,000

Arsenal officially confirm Oleksandr Zinchenko transfer as Mikel Arteta reunites with Ukrainian for £30m

Arsenal have confirmed Oleksandr Zinchenko as Mikel Arteta’s fifth summer signing in a £30million deal with Manchester City.

The Ukrainian reunites with the Gunners boss, both having joined City within a day of each other in July 2016 as Arteta builds his side for a return to European football.

Zinchenko, who cost Pep Guardola’s club £1.7m when arriving from Russian side Ufa, won four Premier League titles along with an FA Cup and quartet of Carabao Cups in his time on Eastlands.


Mikel Arteta said of the deal: “We’re so happy Alex has joined us.

“He’s a player that I personally know really well and continued to follow him after my time at Manchester City. Alex is a high quality player who will give us options and versatility. It's not only about the positions he can play but as well, the versatility he will give us in attack and defence.

are any PL teams interested?


Dries Mertens will leave Napoli as a free agent, as President Aurelio De Laurentiis explained the situation. ‘We thank him for everything he did here, but when it’s cold hard cash, we have to say no.’

The striker is the club’s all-time top scorer who has been at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona since 2013, scoring 148 goals in 397 competitive matches for the Partenopei.

His contract expired on June 30 and there had until today been some hope of negotiating a new deal with a reduced salary, but these comments suggest the door has now been shut.

“I feel the love for the club, but I must never forget that football is also an industry as well as pure passion,” De Laurentiis told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“Unfortunately, that means sometimes going against what the fans want. When a supporter tells me, why don’t you keep Mertens, I can only reply that Mertens offered himself to us for another year, because he knows that he’s 35 and then has to retire.

“If he makes it a matter of cold, hard cash too, then I have to say no. If I have to pay a disproportionate salary to Mertens, that would take money away from the budget of next season, when it will be needed to sign younger players.”

So does that mean Napoli have said goodbye to Mertens, after Lorenzo Insigne, David Ospina and Kalidou Koulibaly?

“Yes, I offered him €4m per season gross and he refused. So I said thank you very much to you, your son Ciro, your wife, for everything you’ve done here and the extraordinary goals scored, but we cannot go beyond our capabilities.

“I need to have money to buy young players who can represent Napoli in future seasons. When we changed all the older players to bring in those like Mertens and Koulibaly, the fans were doubtful, but they became champions here.”

Mertens had been on a salary of €4.5m per season net when the contract expired on June 30.

As De Laurentiis confirmed to a fan this week, he had initially offered the veteran a wage of €1.8m per season net, which would’ve been a huge cut.

He increased that to €1.8m and then eventually €2.4m, but that too was rejected.

Juventus wants Memphis Depay

https://www.football-espana.net/2022/07/25/juventus-linked-with-memphis-depay-swoop

Serie A giants Juventus are interested in a possible summer move for Barcelona star Memphis Depay.

The Dutch international looks certain to be on his way out of the Camp Nou in the coming weeks as part of a squad overhaul in Catalonia.

New signings Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski have increased competition for places ahead of the new season with Depay’s starting spot under threat.

Despite finishing as Barcelona’s top scorer last season, with 12 La Liga goals, La Blaugrana are prepared to offload the former Lyon forward, with his contract expiring next summer.

Premier League pair Newcastle United and Manchester United are both monitoring the situation, with Erik ten Hag interested in making a £20m offer.

As per reports from Mundo Deportivo, Juventus have registered an interest, after he rejected a move to Turin last summer.

Max Allegri is on the hunt for a new striker following Alvaro Morata’s return to Atletico Madrid and Paulo Dybala’s free transfer to AS Roma.

that is a risk, but it is a risk which can pay off quite well if you got a lot of great talents in your academy, and if you can make those succeed and eventually sell for many millions, you can make more profits than if you buy players for like 30 or 40 million or so

I think so too. I don't think he's a particularly good manager (although it's too early to really tell), and he's at a club in dire financial trouble after spending way beyond their means for half a decade. Seems like a recipe for disaster, and I'm here to see it :laugh:

our club also signed one talent from Everton recently

Jarrad Branthwaite, i don't know him, and i hope he is a good addition for our defence, because PSV's defence has been utter s**t recent years

[Nicky91]

i also have no idea what to expect now from Mario Gotze at Eintracht Frankfurt, he didn't deliver what we were hoping from him here in eindhoven, but i guess for marketing he was a good signing, since shirt sales did go a bit up last 2 years, and i guess good on us for at least selling him for couple millions to frankfurt rather than him leaving on free transfer

omg Angelino instead of Cucurella for Brighton

Every club has to take risks. How does any team/manager know a player wont fit into his system if he doesn't try?

Don't compare Chelsea to Utd, Chelsea always have (in the past 18 years) had a very solid structure. If sign a big money player, which we have, and they fail, we still wont crumble, like Utd, because we have a good base.

Also, you are in no position to question Chelsea on taking punts on strikers who turn out to be flops. Liverpool have had their fair share in the past.

1 player is a risk constantly doing it becomes a habit and the fact is all their big signings over the years have flopped, trying to get rid of atleast £200m worth of attackers which will bring about £50m a £70m plus keeper being shipped out on loan other players whose values have halved, spending big then selling for half the price isn't a sustainable way of working especially under American owners who will eventually stop spending money.

Manchester City have agreed a fee of 13 million euros (£11m) plus add-ons with Anderlecht for Spain Under-21 international defender Sergio Gomez.

Frenkie wants to stay in Barcelona unless another club can offer him the amount of salary that he wants, 10 or 12 million a year


It’s a crazy situation

Apparently he took a cut / low annual salary in the first year of Covid to help out the club
... so if he leaves he wants to get his £17 MILLION owed wages ...

The deal was that he took a short term pay cut in exchange for getting a deal of 25 million each year so he took Judd 4 million for that one season - his contract was extended to EIGHT years .

This deal was agreed by the previous corrupt president who is possibly still in prison ..

I can see why the club are asking him to agree to a sensible salary ( in line with the other players) OR just they won’t play him - forcing him out effectively

Man Utd considering Vardy move
Manchester United are considering a shock move for Jamie Vardy, according to The Athletic.

The forward scored 15 goals in the Premier League last season.

Man Utd's Vardy approach

Manchester United are considering a swoop for Leicester star Jamie Vardy as Erik ten Hag attempts to revive his stuttering attack, according to reports.

The Red Devils have endured an awful start to the new era at Old Trafford, losing 2-1 at home to Brighton on the opening weekend and following that up with a shocking 4-0 thrashing at the hands of Brentford on Saturday. In that time, United’s only goal came courtesy of Alexis Mac Allister putting the ball in the Seagulls net.

Meanwhile, there are crippling doubts over the long-term prospects of United’s attacking options. Cristiano Ronaldo remains keen to quit Old Trafford before September’s transfer deadline, whilst Marcus Rashford has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain having entered the final 12 months of his Red Devils contract.

It's added that Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone impressed Ronaldo with his eagerness to work with him.

The La Liga giants are now open to using players such as Alvaro Morata or Antoine Griezmann to facilitate a deal.

Amid those latest Tielemans rumours, Arsenal are said to be focused on signing Pedro Neto.

David Ornstein of The Athletic insists this morning that the Wolves winger, 22, is now their transfer priority before the deadline if Nicolas Pepe leaves the Emirates amid interest from Nice.

He adds that discussions have been ongoing for over a month now, with super-agent Jorge Mendes acting as the go-between.

Barcelona are said to be 'anxious to offload players' as the La Liga club look to raise the £17m needed to register new signing Jules Kounde in time for their next league game.

Kounde has missed the club's first two league games after joining for £46m from Sevilla and is the only one of Barca's summer recruits that is yet to be registered.

The money needed to register Kounde is likely to be raised by selling fringe players, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Memphis Depay linked with a move away.

According to Spanish publication AS, Barcelona are 'confident' they will raise the £17m needed to register Kounde before the summer transfer deadline at the start of September.

Chelsea have reached a verbal agreement with Leicester over a fee for Wesley Fofana.

Sky Sports News has been told that the agreed fee is for £70m plus add-ons, but the detail of the structure of payments, and exact terms of add-ons are still to be decided.

West Ham have completed the signing of Lyon midfielder Lucas Paqueta in what could become a club-record transfer.

Paqueta has become David Moyes’ eighth signing of a busy summer in a deal worth an initial €43million. That could rise to €60m with add-ons, which would take the deal past the £45m the club paid to sign striker Sebastian Haller from Eintracht Frankfurt in 2019.

The Brazilian international, who underwent a medical on Sunday while his new team-mates were picking up a vital first three points of the season at Aston Villa, has signed a five-year contract. He will wear the no.11 shirt.


The former AC Milan man joined Lyon two summers ago and has scored 21 goals and laid on 14 assists in 80 appearances across all competitions since. He was voted as the best foreign player in Ligue 1 for the 2021-22 campaign and is expected to be part of the Brazil side that will start this winter’s World Cup in Qatar as favourites.

Paqueta’s arrival could eventually see the Hammers’ summer spending rise beyond £170m, with Moyes having received major backing to rebuild the side that reached the semi-finals of the Europa League last term.

While the Blues have previously ended their interest in the 37-year-old, it could be a case of needs must for Thomas Tuchel.

According to The Independent, Ronaldo’s agents have returned to Chelsea to gauge their interest.
