Clubs are slowly turning their eyes toward the summer window. Transfer Talk has updates on all the latest rumours.
Willian, Martial to swap places?
Manchester United are prepared to sell Anthony Martial to Chelsea -- but only if the Blues send Willian in the opposite direction.
Jose Mourinho has previously attempted to sign his former player, but Chelsea knocked back his advances last summer.
Now, though, the Red Devils could tempt the Londoners into selling the Brazilian by offering Martial in return, in a deal worth around £80 million.
The Mirror says United would accept Willian and £40m from the Blues in a deal that could suit all parties: Mourinho finally lands one of his trusted soldiers to bring a reliable wide threat, while Chelsea would receive an elite talent in their rebuilding phase, likely under a new manager.
United agree to megadeal for Milinkovic-Savic
Manchester United have struck a deal to sign Lazio star Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, with the Sun claiming the Red Devils will part with £80m.
The 23-year-old will become the second-most expensive signing in Premier League history, after potential future teammate Paul Pogba.
United know they have to make a big signing to replace Michael Carrick, who will retire at season's end, and Marouane Fellaini, who appears set to leave on a free transfer.
The Serbian midfielder has shone in Serie A this season and could settle quickly at Old Trafford with compatriot Nemanja Matic alongside him.
Man City line up another £50m defensive transfer
Manchester City know the going rate to upgrade their defence now, having splashed out £50m apiece on Kyle Walker, Benjamin Mendy, Aymeric Laporte and John Stones in recent years.
It will take a similar fee to replace Vincent Kompany, reports the Mirror, with Matthijs De Ligt highlighted as a potential successor.
The 18-year-old has emerged as one of the finest prospects in Europe, and City could make a move to acquire the Ajax talent.
Chelsea close in on £30m Adama transfer
The Blues could add another young, exciting forward, as the Mirror reports they are closing in on signing Adama Traore.
The Middlesbrough star would cost around £30m, and Chelsea leads the race for the former Barcelona starlet.
Now a more polished product since arriving in England with Aston Villa, the 22-year-old has impressed under Tony Pulis and also has attracted interest from Newcastle and Everton.
Former Blues chief executive Peter Kenyon could ease the deal through due to his close relationship with Boro chairman Steve Gibson.
