<\/a>Jaissle has two-word response to Lewis Hall transfer rumours<\/p>\n

Matthias Jaissle responded to rumours that Newcastle left-back Lewis Hall could leave the club this summer and possibly go to suitors Manchester United. <\/p>\n

Speaking of the rumours the new manager said: \u201cNo chance, no chance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Michael Carrick\u2019s Red Devils want to strengthen their left side and have their sights on Hall who played an outstanding game against Liverpool on Sunday despite a last minute error that led to a match-saving penalty for the Reds. <\/p>\n

Jaissle was adamant that Hall is not for sale and with so many Newcastle outgoings already this summer the club is in a position to hold firm with their stance. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Gabriel Martinelli in talks over Saudi exit<\/p>\n

Arsenal are in talks with Al Hilal over a deal for winger Gabriel Martinelli, The Athletic\u2019s<\/a> David Ornstein reports. <\/p>\n

The Brazilian was not included in Arsenal\u2019s squad for their opening Premier League win against Coventry on Friday and previously turned down a move to Galatasaray.<\/p>\n

BBC Sport adds he is free to leave the club this summer, with manager Mikel Arteta making it clear to the attacker that he is not in his plans.<\/p>\n

<\/a>What’s going on with Bradley Barcola? <\/p>\n

Will Liverpool sign PSG winger Bradley Barcola? That\u2019s been one of the lingering questions throughout the transfer window and there still isn\u2019t a definitive answer. <\/p>\n

Signs point to it being a possibility as Barcola was left out of PSG\u2019s two most recent matchday squads but a report from RMC Sport says that PSG boss Luis Enrique is not including him, nor Ibrahim Mbaye, until their transfer situations are resolved. <\/p>\n

Both players have been linked with Liverpool. <\/p>\n

However, in Barcola\u2019s case the French champions aim to receive \u00a3140m plus for the winger while Liverpool want a much lower fee. <\/p>\n

French media have said that an offer between \u00a3111m and \u00a3128m could be negotiated. In either case Liverpool will be paying a premium for the forward so they move ahead with their pursuit. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Arsenal learn Alvarez price<\/p>\n

Arsenal will need to offer close to \u20ac150m for Julian Alvarez if Atletico Madrid are to consider selling their forward, that\u2019s according to The Athletic<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Spanish club will not sell him to Barcelona, which is good news for Arsenal, but the Premier League champions will not move until they have spoken to Alvarez\u2019s camp. <\/p>\n

They want to be sure he is willing and happy to move back to the Premier League before committing to the transfer and negotiating with Atletico. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Manchester United close to Carlos Baleba announcement<\/p>\n

After a dire opening game against Hull City, which they lost 2-0, Manchester United are in need of a pick me up. <\/p>\n

They may get one in the coming days with the announcement of Carlos Baleba as a new midfielder. <\/p>\n

The Red Devils agreed a \u00a370m deal (\u00a365m + \u00a35m add ons) with Brighton to sign the midfielder who underwent a medical with United at the weekend. <\/p>\n

There have been no updates since so we can assume Baleba passed the tests and is closing in on a switch to Old Trafford. <\/p>\n

Baleba has long been of interest to United and he will join Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans as part of Michael Carrick\u2019s midfield rebuild. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Julian Alvarez open to Arsenal switch<\/p>\n

Julian Alvarez has been rumoured to favour leaving Atletico Madrid this summer and was jeered on his return to the pitch against Villarreal yesterday. <\/p>\n

Barcelona and Arsenal are the main parties interested in his signature but it seems as though Atletico will not sell him to a LaLiga rival. <\/p>\n

That opens the door for a move to the Gunners which Alvarez now seems open to. <\/p>\n

Fabrizio Romano says talks between Arsenal and Atletico took place on Friday to try and get a deal done. They understand Alvarez\u2019s preference to move to Barca but want to remain up to date over the next week in case an agreement can be made. <\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t as though a move is near but this could progress quickly as deadline day approaches. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Julian Alvarez met with deafening jeers on Atletico Madrid return amid Arsenal interest<\/p>\n

Julian Alvarez<\/a> was met with a chorus of jeers by aggrieved fans on his return to Atletico Madrid<\/a> amid his attempts to force a move away from the club.<\/p>\n

All eyes were on Atletico\u2019s team sheet to face Villarreal<\/a> on Sunday to see whether Alvarez would be involved as the club played their first home match of the season.<\/p>\n

And while the 26-year-old was named on the bench, this did not mean things had been smoothed over – especially with the Atletico faithful, who sent him a brutal message as soon as he stepped onto the turf.<\/p>\n
