Today's key events
Arsenal 'schedule talks with 23-year-old home-grown talent'
Arsenal have pencilled in summer talks with one of their home-grown talents amid speculation that he could leave the club, according to a report.
The 2021-22 season was a breakthrough one for Hale End product Emile Smith Rowe, who was handed a new contract before the season began and struck 10 Premier League goals across the campaign.
Smith Rowe's introduction into the team also helped to revive their faltering 2020-21 campaign in the second half of the term, but injuries have significantly hampered his development for a couple of years now.
The England international picked up a groin injury early in the 2022-23 season, which required surgical attention, and he has also been plagued by knee and ankle problems in recent months.
Erik ten Hag reveals three transfer priorities for Man United
Manchester United head coach Erik ten Hag has revealed his priority areas to strengthen in the upcoming transfer market in another hint that he could stay on as manager for 2024-25.
On Friday, reports emerged that the Red Devils board were to sack the Dutchman after Saturday's FA Cup final, even if they beat Manchester City to qualify for next season's Europa League.
Defeat to the Citizens in the final for the second year running would extinguish Man United's hopes of continental football for good, though, as they could only manage a disappointing eighth-placed finish in their worst-ever Premier League season.
Ten Hag's men also finished bottom of their Champions League group and went out of the EFL Cup in the fourth round, leading to the expectation that Sir Jim Ratcliffe will pull the trigger on Ten Hag.
Chelsea attacker 'in talks over loan move to Champions League club'
A fledgling Chelsea attacker is reportedly in advanced talks to join a Champions League-competing club for the 2024-25 season.
Twenty-year-old Omari Hutchinson - a former Arsenal academy graduate who left the Gunners to join Chelsea in the summer of 2022 - was a fundamental cog in Ipswich Town's promotion-winning machine in 2023-24.
From 44 Championship appearances, Hutchinson came up with 10 goals and six assists for Kieran McKenna's men, who finished second in the standings behind champions Leicester City.
Hutchinson is due to return to Stamford Bridge this summer, as Ipswich's loan agreement did not include an option or obligation for a permanent deal, but the Tractor Boys are pushing to keep hold of him.
Wolves 'hold interest in Paraguayan winger'
Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly contemplating whether to target another Paraguayan winger as they bid to strengthen their squad.
The West Midlands outfit have just comfortably avoided relegation from the Premier League, sitting in mid-table throughout after a strong opening three quarters of the campaign.
However, with Gary O'Neil's side having dropped down to 14th position during the run-in, much momentum has been lost ahead of 2024-25.
With Wolves known to be not in an ideal position with regards to the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability regulations, some focus will be placed on trying to acquire talent for a lower fee.
Bayern Munich attacker 'dreaming of Real Madrid move'
A highly-rated Bayern Munich attacker has supposedly set his sights on a future move to Real Madrid amid uncertainty surrounding his future.
Former Chelsea and Southampton academy product Jamal Musiala has lit up the Bundesliga since leaving England in 2019, blossoming into one of the most promising playmakers in Europe.
The 21-year-old has already come up with 43 goals and 31 assists in 163 matches in a Bayern shirt, including 12 goals and eight assists from 38 matches in the 2023-24 campaign.
Despite Musiala's exploits and those of his teammates, the Bavarians ended the season without a single major trophy under their belt, the first time since 2011-12 that they failed to earn a piece of silverware.
Chelsea 'to rival Man United for Argentine teenager'
Manchester United are reportedly set to face stiff competition from Chelsea in their pursuit of signing the promising Argentine talent Aaron Anselmino in the upcoming transfer window.
The 19-year-old Boca Juniors prospect is believed to be viewed as an ideal successor to the departing Raphael Varane, who will leave Old Trafford after a four-year tenure following the FA Cup final.
Jonny Evans' contract renewal with United remains unresolved, intensifying speculation of a summer departure for the 36-year-old defender, while Harry Maguire's future at the club is still far from certain.
Additionally, Lisandro Martinez spent the majority of the season on the sidelines due to injury, which has heightened the apparent need for more depth in the centre-back position even further.
