6 massive Premier League transfers that could still happen as De Jong and Neves in Manchester United sights

It has already been a sizzling summer in the Premier League transfer with the arrivals of Erling Haaland and Darwin Nunez just days into the window.

But that is just the start of the signings with plenty more to come between now and the end of August with billions swirling around south of the border.

Here, Record Sport looks at six other major other transfers that could still happen before the big kick off - with the Premier League fixtures set to be announced on Thursday.

These include players coming from abroad but also players coming from rival Premier League teams.

It may have been a slower start to the window for some top flight English teams more than others but the window has only just opened so there is plenty of time for clubs to sign their targets.

The midfield area seems to be attracting a lot of attention from Premier League clubs and we look into our crystal ball and look at transfers that could happen this summer window.

Frenkie de Jong

Erik ten Hag is desperate to land his fellow Dutchman from Barcelona to kickstart his Manchester United revolution but a bit of patience might be required for this one.

When asked about speculation linking him to Old Trafford while on Holland duty, De Jong replied: "You are always flattered when teams show interest in you as a player, but I think I at the biggest club in the world at the moment and feel fine there so there is no news."

But Ten Hag is unlikely to accept that without a fight as United have little squad depth in the midfield position following the departures of Paul Pogba and Nemanja Matic.

Youri Tielemans

Arsenal continue to be linked with Leicester City's Youri Tielemans. The midfielder is entering the last year of his current contract with the Foxes and it is believed a fee of around £25 million will get the deal over the line.

Gabriel Jesus

The Gunners are also linked with a move for Manchester City forward Gabriel Jesus who may be out of Pep Guardiola's thinking heading into the new season with the arrivals of Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez. Jesus is said to be keen on a move to Arsenal.

Yves Bissouma

Tottenham are believed to have reached an agreement with Brighton for the services of midfielder Yves Bissouma. The deal will cost Spurs around £25 million and he will be Antonio Conte's third signing of the summer window following the arrivals of Ivan Perisic and Fraser Forster.

Jude Bellingham

Liverpool have signed Darwin Nunez from Benfica but are unlikely to stop there. The Reds are targeting another midfielder and it is said that Jurgen Klopp is a big admirer of Borussia Dortmund's Jude Bellingham. The 18-year-old was one of the German club's best performers last season.

Ruben Neves

New Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag will have to look elsewhere if he is to solve the midfield issue and one player who appears to be on United's radar is Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves although it is said the Midlands club will demand a very high fee if they are to let go of Neves.
