Follow all the latest transfer news as the rumour mill whirs despite the end of the summer’s first transfer window
FIFA Club World Cup: will CAF's African clubs upset the odds?
The transfer window has shut after a mini opening ahead of the summer’s Club World Cup. The window will re-open on 16 June and clubs are continuing to make deals in the interim.
Liverpool are making plans for a Florian Wirtz medical after agreeing a £116.5m deal for the German superstar. The Premier League champions, who have already brought in Jeremie Frimpong, will make Wirtz their club-record signing after agreeing a deal with Bayer Leverkusen.
Manchester United, who have secured Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m, are negotiating with Brentford over Bryan Mbeumo, who would prefer a move to Old Trafford over Tottenham Hotspur even as Thomas Frank takes charges in north London – though Spurs want Mbeumo and teammate Yoane Wissa.
Arsenal hope to bring in Spanish midfielder Martin Zubimendi, and Mikel Arteta has made RB Leipzig striker, Benjamin Sesko, their No 1 target for a striker. Chelsea, meanwhile, have been rebuffed in their efforts to sign Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens.

Man United confident they lead race for Mbeumo
But Manchester United believe they still lead the race for Mbeumo, with private confidence that he prefers Old Trafford to north London.
Tottenham have held initial discussions with Brentford, though Man Utd had a £55m bid rejected for Mbeumo in recent weeks.
And while it was reported that the Cameroon international was intrigued by interest from Spurs now that Frank has moved, The Independent that United are still in the driving seat for the 25-year-old.

Wissa and Mbeumo on Spurs list
We start with Tottenham this morning, who the Guardian reports are keen to sign not just Bryan Mbeumo but also his partner in crime Yoane Wissa.
The duo were excellent this season for Brentford under manager Thomas Frank, who replaced Ange Postecoglou at Spurs this week.
Frank wants to bring the duo, but Brentford will be reluctant to sell both of their star attackers in the same summer.
