Transfer news LIVE! Aubameyang to Chelsea talks, Cucurella drama; Tottenham make Udogie bid; Arsenal latest

Transfer news LIVE!

Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham remain very active as we enter the final month of the summer transfer window. Thomas Tuchel is scrambling for further signings, with Chelsea closing in on a £52.5million deal with Brighton for Marc Cucurella and opening shock talks over Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

Chelsea are also plotting a new offer for Inter Milan starlet Cesare Casadei to go along with their imminent signing of Carney Chukwuemeka. They also seem to have hijacked Manchester United’s move for Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong and are also battling the Red Devils for Benjamin Sesko.

Elsewhere, Tottenham have opened talks with Udinese over Italy Under-21 left-back Destiny Udogie and are rumoured to have made a fresh move for Roma winger Nicolo Zaniolo, though former boss Jose Mourinho stands in their way.

Arsenal remain keen on Youri Tielemans and could use the money recouped from several player exits to finally fund a deal for the Leicester midfielder this month. Meanwhile, the Gunners have sanctioned the loan departures of Charlie Patino and Folarin Balogun. Follow all the latest transfer news, rumours and gossip with our live blog below!
