Atletico agree Alvarez deal
Atletico Madrid have agreed to sign Julian Alvarez in an £81million transfer from Manchester City, according to Sky Sports.
It will be a club-record sale for Man City.
Gallagher travels to Spain
Conor Gallagher is expected to fly to Spain on Tuesday to complete his move to Atletico Madrid.
The Chelsea midfielder, 24, had planned to travel on Monday – but talks between the two clubs over striker Samu Omoridion going the other way have delayed plans.
There is not thought to be any issues with Gallagher’s move to Atletico.
Yoro fears
Leny Yoro has undergone surgery on a metatarsal injury that will keep him out for three months.
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag’s worst fears over his new £52million centre-half were confirmed following the op, which took place after the club’s return from their US tour.
Yoro, 18, suffered the damage in only his second appearance for his new club – a 2-1 friendly defeat to Arsenal in Los Angeles.
United have confirmed the French Under-21s star will be missing until November, his absence bringing back Ten Hag’s nightmares of last season.
The club are now certain to accelerate their pursuit of Bayern Munich’s Matthijs de Ligt.
Jean-Philippe Mateta Exclusive
Crystal Palace star Jean-Philippe Mateta is angling for a new contract as his reputation soars.
There is talk of a big move abroad for Mateta but his club could nip that in the bud with a pay rise before the end of the summer transfer window.
RB Leipzig have previously bid for the striker and may return with an offer.
Napoli are also eyeing the 27-year-old up as a replacement for Victor Osimhen should he be sold to Chelsea.
But Palace do not want to lose the Frenchman and they have no replacement plans.
This is set to be a blow to the Blues as they are hoping Napoli can agree a deal for Mateta to make way for Osimhen’s departure.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka Exclusive
Aaron Wan-Bissaka is demanding a multi-million pound pay-off from Manchester United to leave this summer.
SunSport has learned that while West Ham are willing to meet United’s £18million valuation for Wan-Bissaka they cannot afford his wage demands leaving a potential deal in limbo.
The right-back is open to joining the Hammers, but has no huge desire to leave the Red Devils and is refusing to sell himself short.
The 26-year-old has less than 12 months left on his contract at Old Trafford and may bank a huge signing-on fee by staying put and leaving on a free transfer next summer.
The England international’s representatives are pushing for United to give the player a chunk of the £18m fee they will receive from West Ham in order to get the deal done this summer.
The former Crystal Palace star has been on the same £90,000-a-week contract since he joined the Manchester giants five years ago and is determined to secure a significant increase, which the Hammers can’t offer.
Inter Milan are also interested in Wan-Bissaka and he could sign a pre-contract agreement with the Italian giants in January if the West Ham move breaks down.
De Gea’s next club?
Fiorentina are confident they can sign free agent David de Gea this summer.
De Gea has been without a club since leaving Manchester United last summer.
According to La Nazione, the goalkeeper is the Viola’s top target for the position as confidence grows that a deal can be agreed.
The ex-Spain international was linked with a move to Genoa earlier this summer but his wage demands proved a stumbling block.
