Let’s get to the transition moves:
In the six yard box
The biggest transfer stories of the day. These are the deals that are happening, or at least on the verge of being done.
Mark Cucorella’s story continues.
While it looked like Mark Cuccorella was going to Chelsea. All but what?the team issued a statement “Contrary to erroneous reports by a number of media outlets this evening, no agreement has been reached with any club to sell Marc Cucorella.”
All signs still point to Cucurella being a £50 million-plus signing for Chelsea to improve their defensive depth, but that seems to be holding things back. Levi Colville going the other way. Chelsea are open to a move for the young defender but would like a buy-back clause. Since when City of Manchester won’t publicly meet Brighton’s asking price, it doesn’t look like another team will come in for Cucurella and that Brighton want to make sure the final details of the deal are finalized before anyone gets ahead of themselves. Go out. On the pitch, Cucurella is a great addition with versatility Will improve the backline.. Able to slot in as a left-back or left-back centre, Cucurella is good insurance if Ben Chilwell This season goes down with another injury.
Entering the penalty area
These moves may not be immediate, but there is a lot of transition. Fire In all the smoke these players and teams will be blowing.
Maxwell Cornet is edging closer to a move to West Ham United.
after the BurnleyHeading into the Championship, it became clear that Cornett would not be playing for the team as Cornett’s ambitions were at a higher level, with Vincent Co. signing Scott Twain to replace him. He also has a €21 million release clause. Everton According to Fabrice Hawkins, was reportedly open to a payment but it didn’t happen, and West Ham swooped in instead. While Cornet struggled with injuries last season, his nine goals and one assist led an anemic Burnley attack, so he could add significant depth to West Ham. Cornet’s addition to the attack will allow upward rotation between Sayed Bin Rahma, Gianluca Scamacca, Michael Antonio, Jarrod Bowenetc Pablo Farnells To keep everyone fresh which was a problem last season. Personal terms will not be an issue, so it will depend on completing the medical.
Construction game
These moves can be speculative but need to be monitored.
Sanchez’s contract has been agreed to be terminated and is expected to be signed soon as Olympique Marseille would like to add him. The team is still very dependent. Dimitri Payet So adding another attacker would make sense but they face competition from Turkey. According to L’Equipe, Istanbul clubs are interested but they cannot match the wages that Marseille can put on the table which complicates things. With his contract expiring soon, a related move may not be far behind.
Are Chelsea interested in Pierre-Emerick-Aubameyang?
with Barcelona Looking to sell players this summer, Pierre-Emerick-Aubameyang could be one of the only ones to leave after arriving. weapon Last season though with nothing to go on, according to Matt Law, Aubameyang would be interested in a move and Chelsea need a genuine number nine out of him. Armando Bruja. Kai Howertz Can fill the role, but in Thomas Tuchel’s 3-4-3, his best role has been in two supporting a proper striker. Tuchel is already familiar with Aubameyang from his time with him Borussia Dortmund So that it can gather steam quickly.
