Transfers

  1. Athletic Club accused of 'bullying' Williams into new contract

    Athletic Club pulled a fast one on Barcelona for the second year running as the Basque club announced that they had tied down Nico Williams to a 10-year contract. The Spain international had been linked with a move to the Catalan side this summer with personal term reportedly having been agreed. However, the club had been waiting to achieve 1:1 with La Liga's financial rules before making the move.

  2. Newcastle on brink of £55m deal for Premier League star

    Newcastle United have stepped up their efforts to secure the services of Nottingham Forest winger Anthony Elanga, lodging a substantial £55 million (€64m/$75m) offer for the 23-year-old. The bid comes after Aston Villa also joined the chase for the Swedish international, adding competition for the Magpies, in what could become one of the most fiercely contested transfer sagas of the summer.

  3. Fenerbahce make fresh bid for Man City star Walker

    Fenerbahce have reportedly ramped up their efforts to land Manchester City’s veteran right-back Kyle Walker, making a significantly improved financial proposal to lure the England international to Istanbul. The Super Lig runners-up are preparing for life after Bright Osayi-Samuel, whose contract concludes at the end of June. With his likely departure, the Istanbul-based club is eager to secure a high-profile replacement, and Walker is at the top of their shortlist.
