Follow all the latest transfer news as the rumour mill whirs with the summer’s second transfer window open for business
Impact of FIFA Club World Cup on MLS
The transfer window is now open again following the start of this summer’s Club World Cup with clubs able to accelerate deals ahead of the new season.
Arsenal chiefs are reportedly in talks with Eberechi Eze as the look to bring a striker to the club in this window. The Gunners have already agreed a fee for Brentford captain Christian Norgaard in a surprising move after contract talks with Thomas Partey have stalled. They have also agreed to pay above the release fee for Spanish midfielder Martin Zubimendi and Mikel Arteta wants to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko - though talks have stalled somewhat.
Manchester United, meanwhile, have secured Matheus Cunha from Wolves for £62.5m and are negotiating with Brentford about Bryan Mbeumo, having submitted an improved offer.
Florian Wirtz is now officially a Liverpool player after agreeing a record £116.5m deal for the German superstar and completed the medical last Friday, while Reds defender Jarell Quansah is set to go the other way in a £35m deal to join Bayern Leverkusen. Liverpool, who have already brought in Jeremie Frimpong, signed Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, on Thursday as they continue to strengthen ahead of the new season.

Arsenal in talks with Eze's representatives
Arsenal are in talks with the representatives of Crystal Palace winger Eberechi Eze reports The Sun.
They claim that Gunners chief Andrea Beta met with Eze’s people to discuss the details of a potential transfer.
Eze is on the market for around £68m and Arsenal would need to battle Tottenham to do a deal.
Their main priority is still an out-and-out striker with an attacking winger seen as a bonus.
If any move for Eze materialises that would reduce the funds available to purchase a centre forward with Arsenal still negotiating a price for RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko.
