With Euro 2024 now concluded, Premier League clubs have quickly turned their attention to bolstering their ranks.

Manchester United and Chelsea headed into the window in desperate need of rebuilds, and both sides have been the most active of the ‘Big Six’ outfits so far.

United are hoping to wrap up a deal for Leny Yoro by the end of play today, having persuaded the teen to snub Real Madrid in favour of committing his future to Erik ten Hag’s project in a deal worth £58million. Joshua Zirkzee has already joined the Red Devils from Bologna.

Chelsea have been equally focused on bolstering their ranks, with Enzo Maresca kickstarting his tenure by signing Tosin Adarabioyo, Omari Kellyman, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Renato Veiga and Marc Guiu as part of a much-needed shake-up at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea target offers cryptic response

Karim Adeyemi has offered a cryptic response to questions about his future.

The Borussia Dortmund forward has been heavily linked with a move to the Premier League this summer, with Liverpool and Chelsea among his admirers.

But Adeyemi did not provide any clarity on his future when questioned over whether a move beckons, saying: “I can’t say anything about that, I’m wearing a Dortmund shirt and I’m very happy to be wearing a Dortmund shirt.

“There are no guarantees in life.”

Arsenal and Man Utd offered transfer encouragement

Barcelona forward Raphinha is reportedly keen to return to the Premier League this summer, amid interest from Arsenal, Manchester United and Aston Villa.

According to HITC, the Brazil international is aware that he may struggle for minutes next season due to the emergence of Lamine Yamal and has therefore decided that a summer exit from the Camp Nou is the best option for his career.

The 27-year-old is said to be available for approximately £50million and interest from Premier League outfits is ‘high’.

Crystal Palace slap mammoth price tag on Marc Guehi

Crystal Palace are not willing to entertain offers of less than £70million for Marc Guehi this summer, despite the defender being in the final two years of his contract at the club.

That is according to The Times, who claim that Arsenal have been ‘priced out’ of a move for the England international.

Chelsea retain an interest in re-signing the centre-back, and the Blues are set to receive 20 per cent of any profit made on the sale of the 24-year-old if he moves elsewhere this summer. Liverpool and Manchester United are monitoring his situation from afar.

Prem clubs must act quickly to land Euro 2024 star

Premier League clubs will need to act quickly if they are to sign Dani Olmo.

The RB Leipzig star’s £52million release clause was extended by five days due to his involvement at Euro 2024, meaning it is now set to expire on Saturday.

Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool are among a host of clubs to have been linked with the playmaker, and all interested parties will need to be quick if they are to secure his signature as BILD report that Atletico Madrid are pushing to bring Olmo back to Spain.

United reject Scott McTominay bid

Manchester United have rejected an offer from Fulham for Scott McTominay, reports talkSPORT.

The opening bid from Marco Silva’s side is said to have fallen short of the £30million proposal made by West Ham last summer.

United are willing to part ways with McTominay for the ‘right price’, and the Scotland international is unlikely to be short of interest after being one of the few shining lights at Old Trafford last season.

Chelsea set to push for Nico Williams

Chelsea are reportedly preparing to launch a big-money move for Euro 2024 star Nico Williams.

The Athletic Bilbao winger has been heavily linked with a move away from Spain this summer, and The Athletic report that the Blues believe that they are ‘well-placed’ to move for the forward.

Chelsea have already done their groundwork ahead of the move and are willing to go head-to-head with Barcelona to secure the signature of the 22-year-old.

Williams is said to have a £47million release clause in his contract with Bilbao, though it remains to be seen whether interested parties risk a hijack by attempting to negotiate a lesser fee for the tricky winger.

Manchester United are hoping to wrap up two deals by the end of play today it appears.

The Red Devils are working hard to secure the signature of Leny Yoro, who they successfully persuaded to join the club this summer despite his initial desire to hold out for a move to Real Madrid.

The 18-year-old is now in England and set to pen a five-year deal with the club after an agreement worth up to £58million was agreed last week.

Similarly, Marseille are pushing to sign Mason Greenwood now that the England international has touched down in France.

The forward is set to join the club in a deal worth £25million, with United also inserting a 50% sell-on clause into the agreement.
