FootballTransfers runs through the biggest rumours and gossip from 31 May, including the latest updates on Victor Osimhen, Enzo Fernandez and Yan Diomande.
Osimhen is Man Utd's dream target
Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen is Man Utd's "dream" target this summer, CaughtOffside claims.
The Red Devils are expected to offload Joshua Zirkzee, which will necessitate the signing of a replacement. Five very different players have been identified as potential options, some as backup to Benjamin Sesko, others as first-choice strikers.
Jean-Philippe Mateta, Robert Lewandowski, Dusan Vlahovic and Eli Kroupi are being considered, but Osimhen would be the preferred option. Any deal would likely cost in the region of €100 million, however.
Real Madrid ready Fernandez offer

Real Madrid are planning to make a bid worth €100m plus bonuses for Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez, as per El Debate.
The Argentina international is pushing for a move to Los Blancos after deciding that he no longer wants to play for Chelsea following their failure to qualify for Europe. His agent Javier Pastore is already in talks with Real Madrid.
The Spanish giants are prepared to test the waters with a bid, but they are unwilling to match Chelsea's €138m asking price outright. Instead, they could look to include a player in the deal.
Winger domino
Fabrizio Romano expects major movement in the wingers market this summer, particularly following Anthony Gordon's €80m move to Barcelona.
Bayern Munich, Liverpool, PSG, Tottenham, Newcastle and even Man City are all likely to be in the market for a marquee wide player. "There will be a wingers domino, because we said that it's going to be an important summer for midfielders and for wingers,” Romano explained.
"And now for wingers, obviously, with Anthony Gordon going to Barcelona, it means that there will be movements from other clubs on different players. Bayern are in the market for a winger. Let's see what they do. Keep an eye on Man City because if Savinho goes to Tottenham, Man City could go for a new winger."
"My understanding is that Man City are exploring the possibility of going for a new winger. Then there is Liverpool. Liverpool want to go for Yan Diomande, but they are in a battle with Paris Saint-Germain. And now I can't exclude that more clubs join this race for Diomande, also because the interest of these clubs is really concrete."
Inter "crazy" about Jones

Inter boss Cristian Chivu is "crazy" about Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones, Gazzetta dello Sport writes.
The 25-year-old is increasingly likely to leave his boyhood club, with contract talks having failed. Jones is attracted to the Inter project and was already keen on a move in January, before Liverpool blocked the transfer.
Inter are pushing hard for Jones. The Italian outlet writes that he could already arrive "in the next few days," despite what seems like a sizeable gulf in valuation. Inter have so far offered around €20m for the Liverpool star.
Jackson given second chance?
Chelsea will hold off on making a final decision on the future of Nicolas Jackson until Xabi Alonso enters the building, the Daily Mail reports.
The Senegal international is set to return to Stamford Bridge after Bayern decided against exercising their €65m purchase option in his loan deal, and the expectation had been that he would be sold by Chelsea.
However, the departures of Enzo Maresca and Liam Rosenior and the impending arrival of Alonso could yet change this. The Spaniard will be given the time to thoroughly assess the squad, and he could offer Jackson an olive branch.
