From now up until the end of August expect some big moves in the lead up to the 2017/18 the Premier League season.
The transfer window mill has already been sent spinning into overdrive as we've already seen Arsenal secure the services of French forward Alexander Lacazette from Lyon for £52 million and it doesn't end there as the Gunners are also interested in signing Monaco winger Thomas Lemar. However, the situation with Alexis Sanchez remains uncertain with the Chilean pursuing a move to Manchester City. Another departure that could affect Arsenal this season would be the possible move of right back Hector Bellerin to Barcelona.
Romelu Lukaku's pending transfer to Manchester United has come is the biggest news so as United tabled £75 million offer for the forward. The transfer was made all the more interesting as Chelsea were also in the running to sign Lukaku even going as far matching United for his transfer and personal terms. In the end it seems United won out in the end.
Liverpool have also been quite busy in the window signing Mohamed Salah from AS Roma for £35 million and have also been linked with Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, even reportedly offering £25 million for the Englishman. What may concern Reds though, would be the news linking Phillipe Coutunho with a move away from Anfield as Barcelona have shown interest this year and PSG said to be targeting the Brazilian.
Chelsea are looking to close in on the signatures of AS Roma defender Antonio Rudiger, Monaco's Tiemoue Bakayoko and Juventus' Alex Sandro after losing out on their prime target, Lukaku. Chelsea will now have to look elsewhere for a replacement for Diego Costa as the Spain forward seeks a return to Atletico Madrid.
Manchester City are reportedly closing in on their man according to Portuguese newspaper O Jogo. According to O Jogo Alexis Sanchez has agreed personal terms with City and his move would cost the Citizens £ 50 million. City have made the additions of Portuguese duo Bernardo Silva and Ederson during the window so far and have been rumoured to being on course to sign Dani Alves.
