Leeds chasing Liverpool duo, Wolves to sell players, Barca linked with Everton ace!

There are still a lot of business to be done before the new season starts with Leeds and Bielsa acting as we would think, with cleverness and potentially blistering signings in Liverpool duo Divock Origi and Rhian Brewster, both players with a potential to trash every defense in the Premier League.

Manchester City and Liverpool are both in the chase for Wolves sensation Adam Traore. Traore might be available for the right fee, with the Midland club owners not able to go into the transfer market without a major sale happening.

Arsenal looks close to settle a new move with Lille defender Gabriel Magalhaes on the radar. The Brazilian international will arrive in London shortly and looks eager to get his career moving as Mikel Arteta are on a chase for a Champions League spot next season.

Leicester City are reported to be close to a move for Ajax defender Nicolas Tagliafico, with the Argentinian international possibly signing a deal early next week. No secret that Ben Chilwell will be out and that a new left back might be needed.

Barcelona are told to pay up if they would like to sign Richarlison from Everton. A fee of £143million is what it would take to bring in the player and that might be “too much” even for Ronald Koeman, who is known to be a great admirer of the winger.

Thiago Alcantara is a target for  a number of clubs with Bayern Munich eager to get a deal over the line. The 29 year old Spanish international could be on his way to Premier League with both Everton and Arsenal in the chase.

Valencia forward Rodrigo is eager to get a move this summer and it could be that Leeds United will be in line to settle this move with a £30million offer close to be tabled. This would surely be a great addition and could see him flying at Elland Road next season.

Aston Villa are said to be among the front chasers with a testing offer for Odsonne Edouard said to be in the region of £30million. The Celtic forward is a target for a number of clubs with Leicester and West Ham said to be in the competition.

Spanish U.19 international Nico Melamed could be on his way to England with Chelsea said to be ready to bring him in. Melamed, currently with Espanol, has not made many first team appearances but the midfielder is still very highly rated.

Ryan Kent could be on his way to Leeds as well, with a £14million bid close to be tabled, and that would see Rangers agreeing on a deal. Leicester City are still chasing David Brooks and a move would certainly upset Manchester United.

Inter Milan could be the winners in the chase for Lille attacking midfielder Jonathan Ikone, but rumours are that Leicester City also have lined up a bid for the 22 year old France full international.

Bio:

Hatton signed a new contract in the summer of 1970. What no-one had realised, though, was that it had a release clause included. After just 15 games of the 1971–72 season, Birmingham City made a successful bid of £80,000, a Carlisle club-record fee. He scored 9 more goals for Carlisle before his move, and notched a goal in the 2–0 away win in his final game for the club, at Luton Town on 23 October 1971.

Hatton played a major part in Birmingham City’s promotion to the top flight in the 1971–72 season partnering Trevor Francis and Bob Latchford. Hatton scored the only goal in the 1975 F.A Cup Quarter Final win over Middlesbrough in front of over 53,000 fans and played in Division One till 1976.
