Transfer news and rumours LIVE: Sane's Bayern move on hold

Manchester City may look to offer John Stones back to Everton in a bid to prise Mason Holgate from the Toffees, claims <a href="https://www.footballinsider247.com/man-city-keen-to-sign-everton-star-holgate-in-part-exchange-for-stones/" target="_blank">Football Insider</a>. Pep Guardiola is eager to bring in another centre-half and is ready to buy into the potential of a highly-rated 23-year-old at Goodison Park. Stones made a similar move back in 2016, but may be given the chance to retrace his steps after slipping down the pecking order at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester United are mulling over an approach for Monaco's 19-year-old centre-half Benoit Badiashile. <a href="https://www.footmercato.net/a404978839944564710-mercato-monaco-le-point-sur-le-dossier-benoit-badiashile" target="_blank">Foot Mercato</a> claim that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wants to bring another player of potential into his defensive unit at Old Trafford.

Bayern Munich will wait until next year to sign Leroy Sane from Manchester City,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.sport1.de/fussball/bundesliga/2020/06/fc-bayern-verhandelt-ueber-leroy-sane-wechsel-erst-2021" target="_blank">Sport1</a>&nbsp;claims. Pep Guardiola confirmed recently that the Germany international will not sign a new deal and will leave the club either this year or in 2021, when his contract expires. Bayern have long been after the former Schalke star and hoped to land him before next season, but they are only willing to spend around €40 million. City are demanding more for the 24-year-old, however, and look set to keep him for another season.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was forced to dodge an awkward question over&nbsp;Manchester United's plans for Jadon Sancho, refusing to rule out a bid for the&nbsp;Borussia Dortmund&nbsp;star.&nbsp; Sancho, 20, has been closely linked with a move to Old Trafford this summer, although the likes of&nbsp;Liverpool,&nbsp;Real Madrid&nbsp;and&nbsp;Barcelona&nbsp;are also said to be considering an offer.&nbsp; Any transfer, though, would likely not come cheap, with Dortmund reportedly setting a price tag upwards of&nbsp;£100 million ($123m) on their young gem at a time when spare cash is at a premium in the post-coronavirus football world.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/im-good-at-maths-but-cant-answer-solskjaer-dodges-sancho-to/11pjzlk90wytp1bgp5j9riu9ja" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Manchester United&nbsp;are only one Virgil van Dijk-esque signing away from being Premier League title challengers, claims Phil Neville. The Red Devils have slipped a long way off the pace in recent years, with serious regression endured since&nbsp;Sir Alex Ferguson delivered the last of their record-setting 20 top-flight crowns in 2013. Those at Old Trafford have seen their arch rivals from across the North West secure domestic dominance this season, with&nbsp;Liverpool&nbsp;surging over the line in style. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/man-utd-one-van-dijk-esque-signing-from-being-challengers/80ta3shpsz0t1mhksxbaqgqr4" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Dimitri Payet has signed a new deal with&nbsp;Marseille&nbsp;– and has taken an “unprecedented” pay cut in order to do so. Having played a key role in Andre Villas-Boas’ side finishing second in&nbsp;Ligue 1, there was some doubt over his future at Stade Velodrome due to the club’s financial difficulties. Payet still had two years to run on his deal but has elected instead to sign to fresh terms that contract him to OM until the end of the 2023-24 – by which time he will be 37. <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/payet-takes-unprecedented-pay-cut-to-sign-new-marseille-deal/nspes0388wu91790mdmw52qb3" target="_blank">Read more here!</a>

Liverpool&nbsp;are unlikely to land Kai Havertz or Thiago Alcantara in the next transfer window, says Jason McAteer, with the Premier League champions not expected to break their transfer mould by investing “huge fees” in fresh faces. McAteer told the Racing Post: "Talk of&nbsp;Bayer Leverkusen's Kai Havertz arriving at the club therefore seems unlikely. Liverpool broke records to sign Alisson and Virgil van Dijk, but the rest of the team were not necessarily signed for huge fees." <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/liverpool-havertz-thiago-wont-spend-big-mcateer/1csnokvlx0sd718ioi1iso0zw2" target="_blank">Read the full story on Goal!</a>

Achraf Hakimi will move to Inter this summer for three principle reasons, according to <a href="https://as.com/futbol/2020/06/26/primera/1593193645_654393.html?m1=cG9ydGFkYV9wb3J0YWRh&amp;m2=QUNUVUFMSURBRA%3D%3D&amp;m3=MQ%3D%3D&amp;m4=dmlkZW8%3D&amp;m5=MjI%3D" target="_blank">AS</a>. The first is that he does not want to be back-up to Dani Carvajal at Real Madrid, while the second is that he wants to work under Antonio Conte. Finally, the financial package he is being offered is very attractive. He does not rule out going back to Madrid in the future.
