Transfer news - live updates: Manchester United name Anthony Martial price, Chelsea reject Willian bid, Thierry Henry at Aston Villa - latest deals and reports
Liverpool enjoyed success in the Champions League this year and their quest to end their league title drought in 2019 will be bolstered by the arrival of Naby Keita from RB Leipzig. He will not be the last new face on Merseyside, however, with Monaco's Fabinho already in. Roma's Alisson was next through the door and could Lyon's Nabil Fekir follow? At United Jose Mourinho looks set to spend big again as he targets reinforcements in his bid to haul in record-breaking Manchester City next season. He's got Fred but another central midfield player is high on his list with a big money move for Real Madrid's Gareth Bale not out the question.
For the first time in over two decades Arsenal head into the offseason with a new manager at the helm. That man is former PSG boss Unai Emery after a stunning 11th hour change of heart at the Emirates and he already has four new signings and plenty more on the way with more on his shopping list. Chelsea have a new manager themselves after appointing Maurizio Sarri with the futures of Eden Hazard and Willian high on his agenda but across London Mauricio Pochettino won't be leaving Tottenham Hotspur after signing a new five-year deal.
We will have all the latest news, views, rumours, gossip and done deals right here so don't touch that dial.
Raheem Sterling's calculation that a blinding World Cup would bolster his position in contract talks with Manchester City appears to have backfired, the Daily Mirror reports.
The England star is said to have been seeking improved personal terms to his £170,000-a-week deal, although he delayed talks until after his return from Russia.
While the Three Lions' campaign won plaudits, Sterling's value is said to have remained relatively constant and attention from big international clubs has not been forthcoming.
His contract with City is up in 2020, although he will have to sign an extension before next summer, the paper says.
Jack Grealish will make it clear to Aston Villa's owners that he wants to pursue his dreams of Champions League football and join Tottenham, the Daily Telegraph reports.
Spurs are said to be ready to make an offer for the 22-year-old attacking midfielder as soon as this week.
After a reported £55million takeover by Egyptian billionaire Nassef Sawiris and Wes Edens eased Villa's financial concerns the club will be less inclined to sell their talisman.
However ambitious Grealish is said to want out and Mauricio Pochettino is reportedly determined to sign him this summer.
Meanwhile,Manchester United right-back Matteo Darmian could be snapped up by Napoli, The Sun says.
With only a year left on his contract, the Reds could be keen to shift the 28-year-old before he becomes a free agent.
Darmian played against San Jose Earthquakes on Sunday, but was used by Mourinho just 17 times in all competitions last season. Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has voiced admiration for the Italian who began his career in the Serie A.
England and Leicester star Harry Maguire, Tottenham's Toby Alderweireld and Milan's Leonardo Bonucci have been earmarked as potential defending targets by Manchester United, the Daily Mail reports.
Landing Maguire, 25, could cost United up to £65million and would likely see Mourinho have to sell one of his centre-backs, the paper says.
United reportedly enquired about Alderweireld in May, while Bonucci is said to be on a watch list.
Chelsea may have to fight off Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich if they want to turn their interest in Anthony Martial into a successful bid, Sky Sports News reports.
All three clubs are said to fancy their chances of landing Manchester United's France forward, 22, who has a year left on his contract.
The broadcaster says it understands Martial has told Jose Mourinho he wants to leave Old Trafford, although the club's top brass think otherwise. Martial's contract is said to have an option to keep him at the club until 2020 and Chelsea are yet to make a formal offer.
Chelsea are weighing up a £65million offer from Barcelona for forward Willian, the Daily Mail says. The Blues are said to prefer the prospect of selling the Manchester United target abroad, rather than to a Premier League rival.
Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia and owner Roman Abramovich are said to be meeting to discuss possible departures and signings by new manager Maurizio Sarri this week. Barcelona are reported to have made two previous attempts at grabbing Brazilian Willian, 29.
Good morning and welcome to today's Independent transfer live blog.
Manchester City are Premier League champions and everyone else are getting set to spend, spend, spend to catch them.
One of those tasked with doing so will be Unai Emery after the former PSG boss emerged as an 11th hour candidate to take over from Arsene Wenger at Arsenal. He already has five new signings already with more imminent.
Liverpool have made the biggest splash though in signing Alisson from Roma. Nabil Fekir won't be joining him, however, after a dramatic U-turn.
We'll bring you all the latest news on that plus all the done deals and breaking rumours throughout the day right here so don't touch that dial.
