Eintracht Frankfurt and Milan will have a some more business to conduct in the next few days as they sort out Ante Rebic's permanent transfer to Milan.

City are still negotiating with Napoli for Koulibaly.

Relevant summary:
  • Negotiations are slow and not "straightforward".
  • Jorginho transfer strained relations
  • Koulibaly's agent is playing a significant role in the negotiations.

Official: former Chelsea player Ola Aina joins Fulham on loan from Torino with an option to be purchased.


Personally, this looks like another great signing for Fulham.

Lampard tells BBC 5 Live Radio that he wants to keep N'Golo Kante.

I see those reports as well. I certainly don't want to lose him; he's fundamental to what I'm trying to do.[...] He's a big deal to me; of course, I want to keep N'Golo.

Why are Roma always loaning Florenzi out if he's such a decent player? Or is he actually not?
Whats the story with him and Roma...?

Find this very odd.
Me too. I'd have thought that they'd keep him, but I guess he wanted to get more first-team minutes in a bid to make Italy's squad for Euro 2021. Roma's first-team right back is Bruno Peres now with Spinazzola the first option off the bench.

Gattuso talks about Milik & Koulibaly:

[On Milik] Last year we were clear with him both me and the club. We wanted him to renew his contract with us, but he didn't want to. Now we have bought two strikers, so a solution will have to be found otherwise it will not be easy.

[On Koulibaly] It's a different question. Kalidou has a precise value and if the club doesn't get what it asks for, he won't leave.

It'll be tough for Napoli to ship out Milik given that the player himself wants to run his contract down at the club.

Gattuso mentioned that Milik is behind both Osimhen and Petagna in the squad, so he'll have to leave in order to get regular football.

Guess who Spurs is targeting to become their new striker addition.

Andrea Belotti

Cagliari are pursuing Roma's Cengiz Under (Eusebio di Francesco's choice; he used to work with Under when he was at Roma). Cagliari also await Godin's final decision with wages being a potential stumbling block.

Always liked Belotti. Very strange that he's still playing for Torino. He's got a lot of quality and works very hard; would suit this league. If Spurs get him I'd consider that a very prudent purchase.

The problem for Spurs is that they want a loan with an option to buy whereas Torino would prefer a straight-up sale.

The Tweet may be headlining Sam Lammers, but it also mentions that Atalanta are pursuing Josip Brekalo of Wolfsburg. They want a loan with an option to buy whereas Wolfsburg would prefer a straight-up sale.

EDIT: Sam Lammers is a decent-looking player, though; he scored 16 goals in 31 appearances for Heerenveen last season, and he's looking like a decent forward.

Parma ask Juve about a bunch of their young players.
  • Parma asked about Marko Pjaca and Luca Pellegrini, but Juve aren't too keen on entering negotiations for them.
  • Parma discussed both Felix Correia and Nicolussi Caviglia.

In case Dalbert or another left back leaves for another club this summer, Inter will approach Chelsea for [Irrelevant point] as the replacement. On Vidal, Inter will contact Barcelona later on; Barca want some money (not necessarily guaranteed) for Vidal before letting him go.

He's reliable for info on West Ham, but I'm not sure about anything else. I've seen him talk about Chelsea transfers outside of Rice, but I wouldn't necessarily rely on him for those.

How has he progressed? Was hot shit a-few years ago but don't hear much talk about him these days. His scoring record looks impressive but I've seen very little of him.

Inter's transfer strategy is utterly bizarre.
