Transfer news LIVE! Barcelona want Vlahovic; Mbappe update; Luis Suarez, Arsenal, Chelsea, Tottenham latest

Transfer news LIVE!

Barcelona are preparing to rival Arsenal for Dusan Vlahovic. The £50million Fiorentina striker is a long-term target for the Gunners but reports suggest the Catalans are interested in him as an alternative to Erling Haaland.

Haaland is a popular player in this month’s market and also has admirers at Real Madrid, who are plotting a move for Kylian Mbappe.

However, the striker is said to be in talks with Paris Saint-Germain over a contract extension. A huge double-bid for both Haaland and Mbappe is purportedly on the cards at the Bernabeu.

Over at Chelsea, a bid for Frenkie de Jong is reportedly underway with the Barcelona midfielder rated at £50million by his club. Also on the Blues’ radar are Layvin Kurzawa, Ivan Perisic and Monaco’s Aurelien Tchouameni.

Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn has emerged as a target for Manchester United, with the centre of the park key to their hopes amid interest in Declan Rice, Amadou Haidara, Jude Bellingham, Denis Zakaria, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.

Premier League clubs are certainly busy in planning their next move with Adama Traore on Tottenham’s agenda and Everton’s next manager the priority at Goodison Park - with Wayne Rooney and Frank Lampard linked.

Overseas, Luis Suarez is said to be nearing a move away from Atletico Madrid with Inter Miami one club monitoring the veteran’s situation.
