Transfer news LIVE: Bellingham to Real Madrid, Liverpool targets, PSG-Kane talks and Mbappe exit

Brighton have signed James Milner, whose contract had come to an end after spending eight years at Liverpool.

Moretto adds that Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku, who spent the season on loan at Inter, wants to return to the San Siro and does not want to consider any other options.

Kalidou Koulibaly wants to leave Chelsea. That’s according to Matteo Moretto who says:

^{The center back is NOT part of Pochettino’s plans and the market is there. The English club is looking for a way out for him trying to include him in other operations to reach other players.}

Inter Milan are interested in Koulibaly, but his vast wages will prove a challenge.

Tottenham’s bid to sign David Raya is moving closer. The player is committed to the deal, according to transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano, but the clubs still need to agree a fee.

All is not completed, however: Manchester United are still in the race for Raya’s signature, according to the Daily Telegraph, and Spurs are not willing to meet Brentford’s valuation of £40m.

Having signed Alexis Mac Allister, Liverpool are keen to bring in at least two more top players, with Nice midfielder Khephren Thuram and Inter’s Nicolo Barella top of the shopping list, according to the Mirror.

Barella, who played for Inter Milan in their Champions League final defeat by Manchester City, has developed a big reptuation both in Serie A and on the international stage with Italy. The 26-year-old came through the academy at Cagliari before his move to Inter, and has clocked up 43 caps for his country.

His all-round box-to-box game would complement Alexis Mac Allister, while Thuram is another midfielder with a rounded game who, like Barella, can carry the ball through the centre of the pitch.

The Dutch Midfielder Ryan Gravenberch who made a move from Dutch Club Ajax to the German giants Bayern Munich for €18.50m last summer, appears unhappy in his current situation.

The midfielder, who didn’t register any goal contributions in his twenty-four Bundesliga matches, appears keen for more minutes.

He relayed to Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf that he doesn’t want to repeat another season like this last campaign, that saw Bayern win the Bundesliga.

Gravenberch stated his biggest goal is to play more on the pitch, and if that opportunity can be at Bayern, he is happy to stay.

However, if more minutes at Bayern doesn’t seem feasible, the Dutch Gravenberch would like to be on the move.

Napoli defender Kim Min-jae has rejected a new contract, throwing his future up in the air with Premier League clubs circling.

Kim has a clause in his contract which can be acitivated in July, according to 90min, which would enable interested parties to bid a reasonable but undisclosed fee for the South Korean international.

Italian outlet Il Mattino says Napoli are resigned to his exit and have already identified Feyenoord’s David Hancko as his replacement.

Newcastle and Paris Saint-Germain are also reportedly keeping an eye on developments.

Chelsea remain buyers in the transfer market in pursuit of providing newcomer manager Mauricio Pochettino with a squad that can immediatelly compete in next years Premier League.

Nicolas Jackson, a 21-year-old senagalese striker from the La Liga side Villareal has stood out to Chelsea representatives according to the evening standard. Jackson, who finished the La Liga campaign with 12 goals and 4 assists would bolster a lackluster Chelsea attack that struggled massively down the stretch of the Premier League campaign.

With Chelsea showing keen interest in the expensive and talented £100m Victor Osimhen, whom Napoli is very reluctant to sell, Boehly and Chelsea have found a great back up plan in case the Nigerian Osimhen stays put or doesn’t agree to terms with the Pochettino-led side.

Villareal’s Jackson is reportedly available for a fee of around £30million, a significant discount from Osimhen’s £100m tag. Jackson ,who ended the La Liga campaign on a tear scoring 9 in 8 matches, would heavily improve a Chelsea attack that just saw João Félix sent back to Madrid.

After months of speculation the English born Declan Rice appears to be headed to Arsenal for a potential record-breaking fee.

Coming off of a brilliant run in the UEFA Conference League that ended in Rice and the Hammers holding the trophy, West Ham chairman David Sullivan says he’s 99% sure their captain will leave them, according to the BBC.

Arsenal, who have a clear opening in the middle of the pitch with Granit Xhaka’s apparent departure, are firm in their pursuit of the best possible deal for the 24-year-old Rice.

The Gunners are prepared to break their current transfer record fee held by Nicolas Pépé in pursuit of the highly talented defensive midfielder who they would love for £90m according to reports from the Guardian. West Ham would love to get this number to the ten-figure mark but look for the clubs to provide add-ons to get the highly anticipated deal finished.

Jude Bellingham, England’s young star, has officially made the move to Madrid penning a six-year-deal that will see the Birmingham native lighting up the Bernabeau for years to come.

Madrid announced the transfer today and will be shelling over £88m to the Dortmund club that is coming off of a disappointing second place finish to champions Bayern Munich.

The 19-year-old will be presented tommorrow at the Bernabeau and hopes to bring the La Liga trophy back to Los Blancos.
