The Premier League season is getting closer and closer and teams are accelerating their transfers.
The teams have just over a week to bring new players in time for the start of the new season next Saturday.
However, the teams will still have just under a month to make purchases, with the transfer window closing on 5 October.
That said, there are a lot of transfer rumors floating around, and here are the latest releases from the Premier League.
Will Manchester United sign Sancho?
Manchester United prepare to finalize agent’s salary and commissions before submitting an official offer to Borussia Dortmund for Jadon Sancho.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made England his main transfer target this summer to bolster his offensive options, with Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Mason Greenwood currently occupying the top three.
However, talk of Sancho’s move to Old Trafford had been quiet in recent weeks, with the Bundesliga club adamant in refusing to change the player’s valuation, which is understood to be £ 108 million.
Such a move would make any offer for Burnley’s £ 50 million winger Dwight McNeil seem pointless, even though it’s clear he’s still on the club’s radar.
Villa sees Wilson’s offer rejected
Aston Villa had a £ 15m offer rejected by Bournemouth for striker Callum Wilson, according to a Guardian report.
The Cherries, who will play the football league next season, are holding on for a higher reward for the English striker.
Brentford striker Ollie Watkins is also a target for Villa, the report says, but it’s Wilson they are making moves.
However, Dean Smith’s team will have to offer more than £ 15m if they are to land the 28-year-old from Bournemouth.
West Ham’s goal may have canceled the contract
According to Cadena Ser, West Ham United goalkeeper Samuel Umtiti could see his £ 135,000-a-week contract in Barcelona canceled.
Mundo Deportivo reported in July that the Hammers were interested in bringing the French center-back to the Premier League.
Umtiti still has three years of his current contract remaining at Camp Nou, but Barca may be looking to cancel the deal for money to save some funds.
The Guardian says Barca’s new boss Ronald Koeman has already explained to Umtiti that he has no future in the club.
Leicester’s goal of holding “serious” contract negotiations
According to L’Equipe, via Sport Witness, Florian Thauvin is expected to hold “serious discussions” about his future at Marseille.
Thauvin, formerly of Newcastle United, was also recently linked to Aston Villa, and will very soon find out what his future holds.
The 27-year-old is in his final year on his contract in France and many clubs have shown interest in landing the French winger.
Thauvin and his agent are aware that they will receive “good salary proposals” from other clubs if he leaves Marseille on a free transfer at the end of the 2020/21 season.
