Arsenal to announce Hincapie today

So much has happened in the last few days, you probably forgot about Piero Hincapie to Arsenal.

But it's understood the Gunners have everything in place and will announce the signing of the Bayer Leverkusen defender later today.

The 23-year-old Ecuadorian, who can play left-back and centre-back, joins for a £5.2m loan fee with an option to make the deal permanent in 2026 for a further £40m.

Marc Guehi to Liverpool latest

By Chris McKenna

Liverpool may be landing Alexander Isak but their pursuit of Marc Guehi is in the balance.

The Reds submitted a bid worth £35m, with a 10 per cent sell-on clause, for the Crystal Palace defender on Saturday.

It has yet to be rejected but Palace have not entered talks.

Boss Oliver Glasner is insisting the centre-back can't leave but chairman Steve Parish is weighing up whether the club can afford to turn down the fee given the England centre-back can leave on a free next summer.

It could still happen today but not guaranteed.

Emi Martinez wants Man Utd move

Emi Martinez has made it clear to Aston Villa - he wants to join Manchester United today.

Personal terms have already been agreed between the Argentine and the Red Devils.

United will either sign him or younger Belgian alternative Senne Lammens.

It is unclear if Andre Onana or Altay Bayindir will leave the Red Devils before the close of play tonight.

Ederson leaving Man City

After eight ultra successful years at Man City, Ederson is moving on to Turkey to join Fenerbahce - until recently managed by Jose Mourinho.

The Brazilian, who turned 32 last month, has agreed personal terms and City will bank around £12million from his sale.

It sets the scene for Gianluigi Donnarumma to join from PSG and compete with James Trafford to be Pep Guardiola's new No.1.

Jadon Sancho to Aston Villa

Another Manchester United flop who they hope to get off their books today is Jadon Sancho.

Aston Villa are showing interest in a deal that would be totally separate from the one that could take goalkeeper Emi Martinez from Villa Park to Old Trafford.

Talks are ongoing over both deals with Sancho needing to make a decision on whether he wants to join a Europa League club.

A loan move appears most likely for the 25-year-old outcast who spent last season on loan at Chelsea.

The Blues paid £5m to get out of an obligation to sign the winger this summer.

Man Utd agree Antony exit

Manchester United have agreed a deal to offload another member of their 'bomb squad' - Antony.

The Red Devils will sell the Brazilian, 25, for just £21.6m after signing him for £86m in August 2023.

But they have also agreed a huge 50 per cent sell-on clause.

Fermin Lopez to Chelsea

Chelsea will have to up their offer if they want to steal Fermin Lopez away from Barcelona today.

A bid of around £35million has gone in from the Blues but the Spaniard has not told the Catalan club he wants to leave.

And although he is only a squad player, his contributions off the bench last season - eight goals and 10 assists - mean Barca value him at more than Chelsea's proposal.

Barcelona manager Hansi Flick said on Saturday: "I spoke with him.

I am really happy when the market is closed."

Alexander Isak set for Liverpool medical

The biggest deal of the day, and the biggest deal of the window.

Liverpool have struck an agreement with Newcastle to sign Alexander Isak in a British record deal.

The move has taken weeks but Liverpool finally have their man and will pay a fixed fee of £125million to bring the Swede to Anfield.

Isak will sign a six-year contract and undergo a medical today with the Reds looking to announce his arrival tonight.

Man Utd eye £40m Emi Martinez

Manchester United are trying to get a deadline day deal done for a goalkeeper with Aston Villa's Emi Martinez and Royal Antwerp's Senne Lammens their two main options.

Martinez did not play in Villa's 3-0 loss to Crystal Palace last night with the Argentina international keen to make the move to Old Trafford.

It would cost the Red Devils around £40million to sign the veteran shot-stopper.

Unai Emery said last night: "We will see tomorrow.

He wasn't."
