Chelsea 'join race to sign Japanese wonderkid'

Chelsea have reportedly joined the race to sign Japanese youngster Keisuke Goto, with the player also attracting interest from elsewhere across Europe.

The 18-year-old currently plays for Jubilo Iwata in J League 2, having made his first-team debut in February during a 3-2 loss against Fagiano Okayama.

Goto managed to net a brace on that day, and has scored five times overall for Iwata in 20 league appearances to date, meaning only Ryo Germain and Dudu are ahead of him in the club's goalscoring charts.

The striker would have featured for Japan at the Under-20 World Championships, however he suffered an injury soon before the tournament which ruled him out of contention for game time.

"He is a player with around 130+ appearances in English League 1 and will bring a wealth of experience to the group. He can play a variety of positions, predominantly in the defensive areas – centre defence, right back and right-wing back and has also played defensive centre midfield.

"I felt at times last season we were a bit vulnerable away from home at set plays and conceded far too many goals on the road in open play and set plays. Michael will definitely help us to improve on this.

Gremio chief reveals interest in Arsenal-linked Bitello

Gremio president Alberto Guerra has confirmed that there are "a lot" of clubs keeping tabs on playmaker Bitello amid interest from Arsenal.

The 23-year-old Brazilian has established himself as a key first-team player for Gremio since joining the club's youth system in 2019 and has already made 84 appearances at senior level.

Bitello was a standout performer in Gremio's promotion campaign to the top flight last year, contributing with seven goals and four assists in 34 matches across all tournaments.

The versatile midfielder has improved his game at both ends of the pitch having gained experience sitting just in front of the defence and in a more advanced role linking up with the attack.

Mbappe 'set for showdown talks with PSG president'

Kylian Mbappe is reportedly set to hold face-to-face talks with Paris Saint-Germain president Nasser Al-Khelaifi on Tuesday to discuss his future at the club.

The 24-year-old was seemingly on the verge of securing his dream move to Real Madrid last summer before performing a U-turn and penning a new two-year contract with PSG that included a 12-month extension.

However, PSG have since been left stunned after allegedly receiving a letter from Mbappe confirming that he has no intention of activating the option to extend his deal until 2025, allowing him to walk away from the club for free in the summer of 2024.

PSG president Al-Khelaifi admitted earlier this month that he was left "shocked" and "disappointed" to learn of Mbappe's decision not to commit his future to 2025, but he has ruled out the prospect of the star forward leaving the club for free in a years' time.

Mikel Arteta refuses to rule out further Arsenal signings

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has refused to rule out the prospect of more players arriving at the Emirates Stadium before the transfer window closes for business.

The Gunners have already forked out in excess of £200m on the signings of Jurrien Timber, Kai Havertz and Declan Rice, the latter of whom commanded a British-record £105m fee to poach from West Ham United.

Ahead of Arsenal's return to the Champions League, Arteta is seeking to build a squad capable of challenging for Premier League glory with enough depth to juggle their domestic and continental commitments successfully.

Despite already adding to their midfield ranks with the captures of Rice and Havertz, Arsenal are being tipped to bolster their engine room further, with Southampton's Romeo Lavia supposedly earmarked as a top target.

Man United 'reject loan bid from West Ham for Harry Maguire'

Manchester United have reportedly turned down a loan offer from West Ham United for centre-back Harry Maguire.

The 30-year-old revealed on Sunday that he will no longer captain the Red Devils after three-and-half-years wearing the armband, and speculation over his future at the club remains rife.

Maguire fell down the pecking order under manager Erik ten Hag last season – the Dutchman's first year in charge at Old Trafford – with Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez, Victor Lindelof and left-back Luke Shaw all preferred to start in the heart of the defence.

The England international started just eight Premier League games in 2022-23 and it is thought that Man United are open to cashing in on the defender to generate funds for summer targets.

Liverpool-linked Thuram 'decides to stay at Nice'

Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram has reportedly decided to stay with the French club this summer amid interest from a number of teams including Liverpool.

After beginning his career with Monaco, the 22-year-old joined Nice in 2019 and has since established himself as one of the brightest prospects in Ligue 1.

Thuram, primarily a deep-lying midfielder, has chipped in with eight goals and 11 assists in 138 appearances for Nice across all competitions, and he was a key player under both Lucien Favre and Didier Digard last season, starting 43 matches.

Dean Henderson 'on brink of permanent Forest move'

Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson is reportedly closing in on a permanent move to Nottingham Forest.

The 26-year-old spent last season on loan at the City Ground, but he was reduced to just 20 appearances in all competitions after sustaining a thigh injury in January.

Henderson has since returned to Man United's Carrington training complex to recover ahead of the new season, but he is not expected to join Erik ten Hag's first-team squad on their pre-season tour of the USA.

Last summer, the English shot-stopper slammed Man United for their "criminal" treatment of him two seasons ago when he made just three first-team appearances, despite being given assurances of regular starts ahead of David de Gea.

Chelsea 'considering move for Harry Maguire'

Manchester United defender Harry Maguire has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Chelsea.

On Sunday evening, Maguire announced on social media that he had been stripped of the club captaincy at Old Trafford, a consequence of falling down the pecking order under Erik ten Hag.

The England international was provided with just 759 minutes of football in the Premier League during 2022-23, half of those outings coming from the substitutes' bench.

As it stands, Maguire finds himself behind Raphael Varane, Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof in the central-defensive ranks, while Luke Shaw has also been given the nod over him on occasions.

PSG to rival Man United for Goncalo Ramos?

Paris Saint-Germain will reportedly rival Manchester United for the signature of Benfica striker Goncalo Ramos this summer.

The 22-year-old is facing an uncertain future with the Portuguese giants, who have allegedly given the striker's agent Jorge Mendes the green light to sound out potential suitors for his client.

The Red Devils are understood to have identified Ramos as one of their primary attacking targets, with Erik ten Hag looking to reinforce his frontline following the January exit of Cristiano Ronaldo and departure of loanee Wout Weghorst at the end of last season.

A report from early this month claims that Benfica expect Man United to trigger the €120m (£103m) release clause in Ramos's contract, and Portuguese compatriot Bruno Fernandes has recently talked up the prospect of linking up with the striker at Old Trafford.

Since the arrival of new head coach Ange Postecoglou, Spurs have enjoyed a productive period in the market, adding Leicester City's James Maddison to their options in the final third.

However, the make-up of Postecoglou's frontline remains significantly in doubt courtesy of the uncertainty surrounding the future of Harry Kane.

While chairman Daniel Levy is said to be happy to keep the club's all-time leading goalscorer for the remaining 12 months of his contract, Bayern Munich are known to be keen on the England captain.

Plymouth sign Morgan Whittaker in club-record deal

Plymouth Argyle have broken their transfer record to bring Morgan Whittaker back to the club on a permanent basis.

The 22-year-old spent the first half of last season on loan at Home Park, where he scored nine goals and registered seven assists in 25 games before returning to Swansea City in January.

However, he has now secured a permanent move back to Argyle, who maintained their promotion push despite his mid-season departure to secure a return to the Championship for the 2023-24 campaign as League One winners.

Whittaker has put pen to paper on a four-year contract which will keep him at the club until 2027.

Liverpool 'name asking price for Thiago Alcantara'

Liverpool are reportedly willing to accept a cut-price fee of €12m (£10.3m) to let Spanish midfielder Thiago Alcantara depart this summer.

The former Bayern Munich man has often flaunted his qualities in the Reds' midfield under Jurgen Klopp, but injuries have also hampered his time on Merseyside.

Thiago was restricted to just 28 appearances in all tournaments - providing one assist - and a persistent hip problem plagued him during the second half of the campaign.

With Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai arriving to bolster Klopp's midfield ranks this summer, Thiago's opportunities for regular starts next term could be limited further, and an exit has been mooted either this year or when his deal expires next summer.

"Due to his qualities and experience of the level, Michael had interest from several clubs and we are delighted that he's chosen Stoke City as the place where he feels he can continue his development.

Telles arrived at Old Trafford to challenge Luke Shaw for the left-back spot, but the 30-year-old struggled to acclimatise to Premier League football and was loaned out to Sevilla last season.

While on the books with Los Palanganas, Telles became a Europa League winner, playing 95 minutes in the final against Roma and contributing three assists from 38 matches in all tournaments.

Bayern 'open to bids for Man United-linked Leon Goretzka'

Bayern Munich are reportedly willing to entertain appropriate bids for Manchester United-linked midfielder Leon Goretzka this summer.

The Germany international has formed a formidable engine-room partnership with Joshua Kimmich for the past few years but came under fire for a perceived decline in performances last term.

Goretzka amassed a respectable six goals and six assists from 40 matches in all tournaments, although he only started 22 Bundesliga matches and is facing increased competition for minutes in the middle.

Thomas Tuchel has reinforced his midfield ranks with the signing of Konrad Laimer this summer, while Ryan Gravenberch is also expected to play a more prominent role next term, assuming the Netherlands international stays at the club.

Chelsea 'considering Leeds offer for Ethan Ampadu'

Chelsea are reportedly deliberating over whether to sell Ethan Ampadu to Leeds United.

While the Blues have made considerable progress in their efforts to boost their position with FFP, more sales are expected in due course with a number of players not having a future at Stamford Bridge.

Most notably, Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital wish to find a permanent home for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Romelu Lukaku, each of them commanding big wages and the latter realistically needing to be sold for a fee in order to maximise the funds recoup from his failed £97.5m signing in 2021.

However, there remains a number of homegrown talent and former prospects that will also likely be sold, Chelsea standing to benefit from the former with funds generated going down as pure profit in the books.

Nevertheless, with further headway with regards to FFP criteria expected to occur in due course, Chelsea are in a position where they can attempt to strengthen the centre of their midfield.

The Red Devils are currently in the process of trying to add to their squad for 2023-24, Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana in line to join Chelsea midfielder Mason Mount in making the switch to Old Trafford.

However, partly owing to their issues with FFP, United are yet to add a fresh centre-forward to their squad, with Napoli forward Victor Osimhen among those now seemingly out of their price range.

United are still expected to push hard for the signing of Atalanta BC forward Rasmus Hojlund, yet the powers-that-be have also needed to focus on trying to secure Rashford's future.

Napoli won their first Serie A title for 33 years, Luciano Spalletti's side dominating the division having been helped by the performances of Osimhen.

The 24-year-old contributed 26 goals and four assists as Napoli secured the trophy by 16 points, yet it has been suggested that it would mark the player's time to move elsewhere.

Son confirms he rejected Saudi Pro League move

Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min has acknowledged that he had the opportunity to move to the Saudi Pro League earlier this summer.

The 31-year-old endured one of his worst campaigns in a Spurs shirt during 2022-23, chipping in with just 10 goals and six assists from 36 outings in the Premier League.

Although the numbers were respectable in their own right, his lack of consistency led to suggestions that Spurs may take the chance to cash in on the South Korea international should an offer materialise.

At the start of the Saudi Pro League's aggressive approach towards attempting to acquire new talent, it was alleged that Son was on their wishlist.

Manager Thomas Tuchel refused to directly confirm his side's interest in Kane when questioned, but honorary president Uli Hoeness has talked up Bayern's chances of prising Kane away from Spurs this summer.
