Newcastle’s hopes of signing Marc Guéhi from Crystal Palace are fading as the clubs are yet to agree on a deal. Guéhi’s reluctance to sign a contract extension puts pressure on Palace to sell him this summer. Meanwhile, Marseille is set to sign Neal Maupay from Everton on loan with an obligation to buy, adding to their transfer activity this summer.
Chelsea youngster Harvey Vale turned down a move to Al-Ettifaq, while Kieran Trippier announced his retirement from international football but will stay at Newcastle. Wolves are interested in signing Nayef Aguerd on loan from West Ham, with transfers also happening at RB Leipzig, Manchester United, and Bournemouth.
Manchester City and Manchester United are unlikely to make more signings before the window closes, with United expected to finalize the Manuel Ugarte deal. Brighton’s Matt O’Reilly suffered an injury on his debut, while Chelsea loaned Kepa Arrizabalaga to Bournemouth.
With Friday’s deadline approaching, clubs are working on various deals including Federico Chiesa potentially joining Liverpool, Romelu Lukaku moving to Napoli, and Scott McTominay heading to Napoli from Manchester United. Fans and clubs are eagerly awaiting the final transfer activity before the window closes.
