\nJean-Philippe Mateta is a target for Aston Villa<\/p>\n
Manchester City have completed the \u00a385.6million signing of Lille midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi, the Premier League club have announced.<\/p>\n
The 18-year-old Morocco international has signed a five-year contract at the Etihad Stadium after the clubs agreed a fee over the weekend.<\/p>\n
The deal is worth an initial \u00a381million with the rest of the fee made up in potential add-ons.<\/p>\n
Bouaddi’s arrival increases manager Enzo Maresca\u2019s midfield options following the recent departures of Rodri and Tijjani Reijnders, with Nico Gonzalez also poised to leave.<\/p>\n
He is City\u2019s second major summer signing after the \u00a3116m capture of Elliot Anderson from Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
Tottenham have agreed a season-long loan deal with City for forward Omar Marmoush with an obligation to buy for \u00a360million next year.<\/p>\n
The Egypt international is now set to undergo a medical with the London club and complete the formalities of the move.<\/p>\n
It will be Spurs’ second capture from City in a matter of days after signing Brazil winger Savio in a deal worth an initial \u00a375m.<\/p>\n
Nico Gonzalez has arrived in Newcastle to complete the final details of his move from Manchester City.<\/p>\n
The 24-year-old Spanish midfielder is set to cost the Magpies up to \u00a352million, according to reports.<\/p>\n
Gonzalez, who joined City from Porto at the end of the 2025 winter transfer window, is a defensive midfielder and could help bolster the Newcastle midfield in the absence of Bruno Guimaraes, who has moved to Arsenal.<\/p>\n
Gonzalez started 17 Premier League matches for City last season, making a further eight appearances as a substitute.<\/p>\n
\nJean-Philippe Mateta is a target for Aston Villa<\/p>\n
Aston Villa have submitted a bid for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, although it falls below the London club’s valuation of the France international, according to The Athletic.<\/p>\n
Villa are also close to agreeing a \u00a359.8m deal for Chelsea and Senegal striker Nicolas Jackson, as reported by French outlet Foot Mercato.<\/p>\n
Nottingham Forest are in talks with Corinthians over a move for 20-year-old Brazil midfielder Andre, according to the Mail.<\/p>\n
Chelsea defender Axel Disasi has joined Crystal Palace on loan for the season.<\/p>\n
The 28-year-old has been part of a group training separately from the main Chelsea squad having spent last season on loan at West Ham.<\/p>\n
He was told at the start of the 2025-26 campaign that he had no future at Stamford Bridge and for the first half of last season he was forced to stay away from the first-team squad entirely.<\/p>\n
He went on to impress at the London Stadium after moving in January, making 17 appearances, but could not prevent the club’s relegation to the Championship.<\/p>\n
He previously played 10 times on loan at Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
