Christian Mosquere, Bryan Mbeumo and Viktor Gyokeres
Arsenal are looking to wrap three deals over the coming days, with Christian Norgaard and Kepa Arrizabalaga having undergone medicals, and talks with Valencia centre-back Cristhian Mosquera progressing well. There is ongoing interest in Benjamin Sesk, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze for attacking reinforcements.
Manchester United have again won the race to sign Bryan Mbeumo, amid rival interest from Tottenham, but Brentford have rejected a second bid, worth £62.5m. Spurs could move on to Crystal Palace star Eze with Bournemouth demanding £70million for Antoine Semenyo. Kota Takai is set to become Thomas Frank's first signing.
Chelsea continue to make progress over a deal for Jamie Gittens as Borussia Dortmund hold out for a £50m fee, and have looked back into a possible deal for Alejandro Garnacho along with links with Barcelona goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen. Liverpool have confirmed the signing of Milos Kerkez and are now plotting a stunning bid for Alexander Isak as Darwin Nunez heads for the exit.

The Bournemouth star is attracting plenty of attention this summer, with Newcastle also believed to be keen on the winger.

While that bid totals £62.5m, the reported Brentford asking price, it is thought that the Bees would like the deal to be worth more than that which United paid for Cunha earlier this month.

It had earlier been reported that they were close to a move, but it had remained unclear whether the Blaugrana would be able to afford to complete the transaction, with Bayern Munich poised to hijack.
Viktor Gyokeres has had a change of heart over joining Arsenal this summer, with Manchester United now in pole position to sign the Sporting striker.
It was reported earlier in June that Gyokeres had "officially" rejected United and a reunion with former Sporting head coach Ruben Amorim following Arsenal making their interest clear.
Gyokeres was then said to have told friends and family that he will sign for Arsenal this summer, despite the Gunners being in talks with both Sporting and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko over summer deals, before making a decision on one.
Standard Sport understands that Sporting are demanding at least €70million (£59.6m) to begin negotiations over a fee, and recent reports suggested that Arsenal were clear favourites to sign Gyokeres despite seeing an opening bid worth €55m (£47m) reportedly rejected.
But The Mirror now claim that United are back in the frame, and seen by some as the most likely destination for Gyokeres despite being unable to offer Champions League football.
Arsenal have added Eberechi Eze to their list of transfer targets, joining Tottenham in the race for the Crystal Palace star, writes Dom Smith.
Arsenal are tracking a number of versatile attackers this summer as they look to sign a wide player able to provide competition for Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, and Standard Sport understands that Eze has been added to the list.
Eze also remains of interest to long-time admirers Spurs, who have a close relationship with - and a number of key players signed to - Eze’s agency, CAA Base.
He could leave Crystal Palace this summer with his contract at Selhurst Park said to contain a £68million release clause, payable in three instalments.
Sky Sports report that a two-year contract will be finalised after Pogba completes his medical and official confirmation should follow this weekend.
The Gunners remain in the market for a left winger and their search is ongoing, after missing out on Nico Williams and with a deal for Rodrygo appearing to be difficult.
Fichajes claim that Adeyemi has now emerged as an option for Arsenal, with the club increasingly turning their focus to the 23-year-old.
While that bid totals £62.5m, the reported Brentford asking price, it is thought that the Bees would like the deal to be worth more than that which United paid for Cunha earlier this month.
So report RMC Sport, who claim that manager Regent Le Bris would like a reunion with the player after coaching him in Lorient’s academy. He has since played for Arsenal and Marseille before moving to Serie A.
