Fati reveals what Yamal told him before he sealed Monaco move

Ansu Fati revealed he had a chat with Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal before he sealed move to Monaco. He joined the Ligue 1 outfit on a season-long loan and as part of the agreement, Monaco holds the right to make the transfer permanent next summer for €11 million (£9m/$13m), depending on Fati’s impact in France.

Chelsea plot move for Casado with Barcelona open to departure

Chelsea could consider signing Marc Casado from Barcelona this summer as the Catalan side are reportedly open to listening to offers for the midfielder. Casado is well settled at Barcelona but could still consider moving due to a lack of regular first-team opportunities. Hansi Flick's current squad has too many midfield options which would certainly limit Casado's game time.
