According to Football Insider, both the Gunners and rivals Tottenham are keen on a move for the Brazilian international.

For their part, Aston Villa are keen to sell if they can move for Chelsea target Tyler Adams.

Man United make contact over Jean-Clair Todibo signing

Manchester United have been pretty active this summer and remain on the hunt for new additions.

Sofyan Amrabat is a target and it seesms Erik ten Hag has his Harry Maguire replacement, should the England international leave for West Ham.

According to RMC Sport, United are in concrete talks over a move for Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo.

Fresh Chelsea offer for Moises Caicedo

Chelsea’s saga of the summer is set to continue.

The Blues have made multiple offers to bring Moises Caicedo to the club from Brighton but have been rejected at every turn.

There now, however, could be some movement.

According to noted transfer journalist Rudy Galetti, the Blues are set to launch a new bid close to Brighton’s £100m asking price.

Ramsdale ready for ‘fight’ with Raya

Aaron Ramsdale insists he is ready to “fight” for his place at Arsenal as David Raya’s move to the club edges closer.

Raya is on the verge of signing for the Gunners, with reports suggesting a medical will take place this week after Arsenal reached a full agreement with Brentford for the goalkeeper.

“Bring it on,” Ramsdale told ITV Sport. “Nothing comes easy in football, but you need to move along and need to adapt as well yourself.

“I’ve done it to other people when I’ve moved to clubs, so I’m not going to be thinking that it’s never going to happen to me. If it happens, it happens. We’ll fight and we’ll make each other the best version of ourselves. That’s what the manager is telling us as well.

“I’m sure whoever plays, me, Matt [Turner], whoever comes in... the goalkeeper union, people will laugh at it but it’s a real thing. Your individual disappointment will go away and you put the team first and you put that goalkeeper first.”

Washington set for Chelsea move

Chelsea are on the verge of signing Santos forward Deivid Washington for £17million.

The Brazilian talent, 18, is set to become the club’s seventh major signing of the summer after his breakout season in South America.

Washington will join Angelo Gabriel in swapping Santos for Stamford Bridge but neither will spend the upcoming campaign with the Blues.

Chelsea plan on loaning the teenage duo to Strasbourg, the French club recently purchased by BlueCo to become a sister club to the Premier League side.

Gunners reach Raya agreement

Arsenal have now agreed a deal with Brentford to sign David Raya.

Fabrizio Romano reports that a medical for the goalkeeper is expected to be booked this week, with personal terms already agreed between the Gunners and Raya.

The 27-year-old will sign a five-year contract in north London, with the total package of the deal between Arsenal and Brentford in the region of £30m.

Arsenal set Tavares price

Arsenal are holding out for €15m for left-back Nuno Tavares.

Sky Sports suggest that Wolfsburg and Werder Bremen are interested in Tavares, who has played no part in the Gunners pre-season.

Tavares spent last season out loan at Marseille and Arsenal are keen on finding a permanent buyer for the defender.

Fresh Kane bid?

Here we go again.

Bayern Munich are expected to submit a new offer for Harry Kane as they push to bring the Spurs striker to Germany.

That’s according to Sky Germany, with it claimed Bayern are preparing a £94.6m bid that they hope will finally be enough to persuade Tottenham to sell.

Kane has no intention of leaving the club once the season starts, so Bayern only have a few days left to complete a deal.
