As the summer transfer window heads towards its close, Premier League sides are racing to get deals done. A few prominent players are pumping gas on the hot topic debate fire. Clubs are busy looking to strengthen their squads, with plenty of big moves expected in the next few days. Significantly, Liverpool still seems to be in the market for Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, and Bournemouth already looks set for more players out the door.
Given the current conundrum in this ongoing transfer window, Alexander Isak’s situation presents quite the conundrum. Liverpool remain interested in signing the striker as they continue to wait on a decision from Newcastle over whether they will sell. The drama around Isak has stolen headlines as clubs around the continent look to bolster their attacking ranks in the final days of the window.
With just a week to go until the deadline, Bournemouth is now in a scenario where Hamed Traore could leave. The club has been associated with a number of potential signings and are particularly interested in players like Tomas Soucek and Hayden Hackney. Middlesbrough have maintained a strong line that Hackney is not for sale, making negotiations difficult for Bournemouth as they look to add to their midfield options.
Four first-team members—Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, Jadon Sancho, and Tyrell Malacia—wish to exit the club. This makes it even more critical for United to address these departures and bring in new talent.
West Ham is closing in on the signing of a big name. Soungoutou Magassa will soon need to pass a medical before completing his £17.3 million transfer from Monaco. This acquisition demonstrates West Ham’s determination to add depth to their squad before the start of a new campaign.
Brighton has had a pragmatic, flexible approach to their player sales. The club are now prepared to send Facundo Bounanotte out on loan once more. They are preparing for leaving for Jeremy Sarmiento and Abdallah Sima. With Brighton seemingly open to loaning out younger talent, there could be further opportunities for more experienced development while keeping squad depth at a controllable state.
This transfer window, though, Chelsea are busier than ever, having discussed a potential move with the Bavarians over Nicholas Jackson’s transfer to them. Chelsea ready move for Garnacho, Edouard Michu & Xavi Simons this week. First, they’ll have to get rid of a number of attacking players.
Crystal Palace is making moves as they engage in discussions with Arsenal over a permanent transfer for Reiss Nelson. This possible transfer lays out Palace’s attempts at landing distinction additions to their squad.
Everton have agreed terms on a loan with Sevilla for right-back Nathan Patterson. The transfer is contingent on Everton first identifying a replacement player. That’s a promising signal that they’re being very conservative in their overall transfer strategy.
Porto must be feeling good about their chances of wrapping up an initial loan deal for Kiwior. The major part of the deal was a firm contract to buy for £22.4 million. This agreement would improve Porto’s protective forces as they get ready for approaching requests.
The closing days of the transfer window have arrived. Time is running out and Premier League clubs need to be bold in spending the money that will make a difference to their seasons. It’s the tug-of-war ballet of player movements and negotiations that makes football transfers so tricky, where the door of opportunity can swing open at a moment’s notice.
