Transfer news LIVE! Chelsea close in on Olise, Lavia debut; Arsenal eye defender; Tchouameni to Liverpool

Transfer news LIVE!

Chelsea are closing in on the signings of Romeo Lavia and Michael Olise after securing a mammoth £115million deal for Moises Caicedo. The Blues have reportedly activated Olise’s £35m release clause, while Lavia is thought to have snubbed Liverpool’s advances for a £55m move to Stamford Bridge.

Arsenal have now announced the signing of David Raya from Brentford and have been linked with a move for Barcelona wonderkid Ansu Fati. The potential long-term injry for Jurrien Timber may shake up their plans, too.

Tottenham, meanwhile, will launch a bid for Gift Orban after Harry Kane’s sale. Over at Liverpool, Real Madrid star Aurelien Tchouameni has emerged as a potential midfielder to solve their growing problems in that position. Manchester United want Sofyan Amrabat for the middle of their park, while Neymar is set to join Al-Hilal in a £2.5m-a-week deal. Follow all the latest transfer news, gossip and rumours live below!
