Ipswich to sign Burnley’s Flemming
This is a less flashy transfer story but Ipswich look on track to sign Zion Flemming from Burnley for around £17m on deadline day.
Flemming would bolster Ipswich’s attacking line and Gary O’Neill has been in the market for a centre forward.
Flemming scored 11 goals for Burnley last season in the top-flight and will bring Premier League experience. He is travelling to Ipswich to complete a medical and the formalities.
What is does do is leave Burnley a bit short for their Championship campaign. The Clarets would have hoped to bounce straight back up but they’ve lost two and drawn one of their opening three matches and sit in the second division relegation zone.

Woltemade set for Newcastle exit
Nick Woltemade is set to leave Newcastle just one year after signing for a record £69m from Stuttgart.
The forward is flying to Turin to complete a medical at Juventus on deadline day ahead of a probable loan move.
The forward wanted to remain at Newcastle but isn’t seen as crucial to Matthias Jaissle’s plans and Juve are willing to stump up a £3.5m season-long loan fee.
Napoli, Borussia Dortmund and other Bundesliga clubs also wanted the 24-year-old on loan.

The fee for the striker cost £21m and it is hoped he will bolster the forward line as the Tigers attempt to secure their place in the Premier League this season.
