Cody Gakpo\u2019s performances went south last season and now his entire personage might follow, with Tottenham Hotspur reportedly preparing an offer in the region of \u00a370m to bring him to north London. There appears to be some mixed messages floating around about this potential deal. The Mail say Liverpool \u201chave no plans to sell Gakpo\u201d and that \u201cit would take a huge sum to change their stance\u201d, but these things are fluid. The Athletic say \u201cLiverpool have no intention of selling\u201d, but also, and in the same sentence, that they \u201cwould judge his value relative to other deals this summer, including Morgan Rogers\u2019 transfer to Chelsea\u201d. So, in short, Spurs will have to whip out their recently-discovered XXL chequebook if they want to get this one over the line.<\/p>\n

Talking about Chelsea, \u201cmultiple Premier League clubs\u201d have contacted them to ask about the availability of Mykhailo Mudryk, recently freed from a doping ban, says the Mirror. They name only one of them: Coventry City, coached by two-time former Stamford Bridge manager Frank Lampard. The Sun specify that \u201ctwo more Prem sides are believed to have enquired, while there is interest from three clubs in Europe\u201d. The Mirror\u2019s report on the battle for the Ukrainian\u2019s services is inevitably, but pleasingly, headlined \u201cMud Fight\u201d.<\/p>\n

Coventry are also on the list of teams interested in Everton\u2019s Tim Iroegbunam, alongside \u201cclubs in Italy\u201d, Hull (as revealed inMonday\u2019s Mill<\/a>) and Ipswich. Iroegbunam isn\u2019t the only midfielder Hull fancy, they\u2019ve apparently had a second bid knocked back for Augsburg\u2019s Mert K\u00f6m\u00fcr.<\/p>\n

Arsenal, as the Guardian reported yesterday<\/a>, have opened formal negotiations with Newcastle over midfielder Bruno Guimar\u00e3es, with the two parties around \u00a310m apart in their valuation of the 28-year-old. The Express reckons the Gunners \u201ccan complete as many as six transfer deals just this week\u201d. On the list of incomings are Guimar\u00e3es, Vinicius J\u00fanior and Ferran Torres \u2013 though the words \u201cBarcelona wish to agree a new deal\u201d and \u201calso attracted interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Atl\u00e9tico Madrid\u201d both suggest Torres joining Arsenal might be an outside bet. In terms of outgoings at the Emirates, Milan are keen on Gabriel Jesus, while F\u00e1bio Vieira and Christian N\u00f8rgaard are also unwanted. The Gunners want to snaffle a string of promising youngsters from domestic clubs, with Blackburn\u2019s 18-year-old forward Igor Tyjon, Cardiff\u2019s 16-year-old midfielder Axel Donczew and Crystal Palace\u2019s Mylo Bernard, who has bits of both of those players being both a forward and 16, all on their shopping list.<\/p>\n

West Ham need a winger and think Tottenham\u2019s Manor Solomon might be the man, though they\u2019ll have to outfight the equally interested Fiorentina if they want to land the 27-year-old. Negotiations are, apparently, under way. But Sunderland have resolved not to sell Wilson Isidor to the Hammers, leading the Londoners to prepare an \u00a318m bid for AZ Alkmaar\u2019s Troy Parrott. West Ham will have to battle \u2013 deep breath \u2013 Porto, Como, Ajax, Real Betis and PSV Eindhoven for the striker\u2019s signature.<\/p>\n

The east London club also want Celtic\u2019s Arne Engels, and are preparing an improved offer for the midfielder. Also at Celtic and expecting his agent to be busy is Alistair Johnston, who Everton have identified as a solution to their right-back woes, and his current employers have identified as a potential source of \u00a315m. Everton are the club expected to soon snaffle Arsenal\u2019s N\u00f8rgaard, with a move valued at around \u00a37m said to be close.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cody Gakpo\u2019s performances went south last season and now his entire personage might follow, with Tottenham Hotspur reportedly…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":574406,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[85,46,105],"class_list":["post-574405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=574405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/574406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=574405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=574405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=574405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
