Liverpool target accepts offer, Amrabat left high and dry, Tottenham eye Faes
Mesut Ozil's ruthless Mikel Arteta remark that left ex-Arsenal man with egg on his face
This time next week, Premier League clubs will frantically be trying to conclude their summer transfer business ahead of the deadline on September 1. Manchester United and Tottenham are among those with significant deals still in the pipeline.
Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino may also be keen to put the finishing touches on another busy window, having picked up just one point from his first two Premier League matches at the helm. The Blues have already smashed the British transfer record by picking up Moises Caicedo for £115million, but the Ecuadorian had a nightmare debut.
The return of league action this weekend could see transfer business take a back seat, providing all the more reason to stay bang up to date on the latest news as the working week draws to a close.
With that, see below for Express Sport‘s live transfer updates…

Tottenham eye Wout Faes
Tottenham transfer chiefs are eyeing up a surprise move for Leicester City centre-back Wout Faes, according to CBS Sports.
The Belgian was deemed to be something of a calamitous figure as the Foxes were relegated last term.
Two own goals at Anfield last December certainly didn’t help his cause.
But Spurs are believed to have discussed the £15million man internally, even if a move would be a ‘surprise’ at this stage of the window due to Leicester’s reluctance to sell.
Amrabat left high and dry
Sofyan Amrabat is currently being left hanging by Manchester United as he waits for a way out of Fiorentina.
The Morrocan has been made to train alone in Italy amid strong transfer links to the likes of Atletico Madrid, Juventus and the Red Devils.
But United launching a concrete bid will depend on them offloading players in the next week, according to The Daily Mail.
Amrabat is consequently in limbo, with time running out for his summer aspirations to materialise.
Liverpool target accepts offer
Gabri Veiga has shocked European football by accepting an offer lodged by Saudi Pro League side Al-Ahli, according to Fabrizio Romano.
Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea had all been heavily linked with the 21-year-old, who made a big impression at Celta Vigo last season.
His arrival in the Middle East represents a major coup, with Al-Ahli signing a player coveted by Europe’s top sides, as well as one with massive potential.
