For what it's worth and it's a rumour:

Bayern München is interested in Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal.
This ain't new by any means and it was reported weeks ago.

New is that Bayern might be willing to sell Boateng. Chelsea might be interested.

Selling Boateng and giving a huge wage package to a 28 year old Alexis would be stupid. I hope they do it.

Manchester clubs are certainly getting **** done.

Meanwhile Liverpool are holding out to find the right player at *their* right price.

This summer thus far has proven only one thing that FSG are just a complete fraud.

Been saying it for years.

Only now if they're a fraud, the top class manager they somehow got will quit the club. Good times.

United really haven't done anything. There's been multiple rumors but basically what's happened is them inquiring on multiple players and getting denied by Greizmann. That's it.

And then denying they were ever interested in the first place as usual

City is getting business done. None of the other top 6 clubs have spent a dime on a transfer fee yet. Just Solanke and Kolasinac on free transfers. Good work by City to make sure they got the players they wanted, even if the prices look high to us.

Last summer they started with need at left back and they still never managed to fix that need even today.

They are claiming/leaking too much ******** to the media about all the funds available and they are still about 2 loses two of their top targets and possibly more.

Well no, they didn't. The squad was ridiculously short of players. That it worked out was a miracle of sorts.

It did work out. The players they bought were all pretty good (one could argue Matip and Mane were great). Some of their living within means was to setup a buy when they had Europe.

I'm all for saying a positive spend isn't good enough. But it's not even July. Give them a couple of weeks at least.

This isn't even saying Bayern might be willing to sell him. The furthest they go is saying he doesn't "seem" to be as much as a fixture as some time ago, and that Chelsea has continued interest. Any willingness to sell for a hypothetical offer of €50M, based on this, is not a rumor but complete speculation. And they know it, and include that even they feel he's unlikely to leave and include Ancelotti's confirmation that he's not leaving.

Reports say Spalletti will keep Eder but told Medel and Banega to find new clubs.

Yea, they've been "very close" to a couple targets but nothing actually happened.

I'm not really worried about it, but I don't think saying they've done solid business is meaningful.

What?

Quite a few "frauds" around then. Basically every club in the PL except City.

Milan's lowball offer of €18 million for Emil Forsberg was rejected by Leipzig.

Rumors of Bakayoko to Chelsea heating up again. Kanye and him will make for a very difficult midfield to play against.

I'd rather Fabinho, but I can kick it with Bakayoko. I'm hoping that Conte rotates the squad a ton this year so we can compete on multiple fronts, so I hope we keep Matic and Fab.

Subasic's gonna return from holiday to find that AS Monaco is now him, Gilk and Tielemans. :amazed:

That team is getting ripped to shreds, I thought they'd sell 1 or 2 for sure, but not sells 4-5 players right off the bat.

I imagine Matic will be moving, Conte has never been know for rotation.

They have sold a total of 1 player and have signed 3, including Tielemans.

Never thought they'd beat OM, Sevilla or Monaco for him.

Southampton are now adamant that they will not sell Van Dijk to Liverpool after the illegal approaches to their player, with Chelsea also believed to have staged detailed talks with the defender without the permission.

Saints are now looking into the levels of contact between Chelsea officials and Van Dijk before considering their next move, with the defender now left in limbo after he made it clear he wants to leave the club despite having five-years left to run on the contract he signed only last summer.
