  3. Chelsea make £38.5m offer for Monaco's Camarapublished at 11:07 BST

    Chelsea have made a £38.5m offer to sign Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara.

    The move is part of the club's plans to replace Enzo Fernandez, who is closing in on a move to Manchester City before the transfer deadline for a fee of about £120m.

    Chelsea's willingness to sanction the sale is contingent on a replacement being found, with talks with Monaco expected to continue. Monaco may also be in a stronger negotiating position following the £40m sale of striker Folarin Balogun to Everton.

    Roma deny any formal offer has come in from Chelsea for midfielder Manu Kone.

    He's clearly a player of interest to the Blues but Roma manager Gian Piero Gasperini issued a statement blocking it last night.

    Of course, this scenario is all playing out in the context of Chelsea having also shown an interest in Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara and Enzo Fernandez potentially leaving to Manchester City.

    Everton have agreed a £40m deal to sign USA international Folarin Balogun from Monaco, with a medical set to take place today.

    So what type of player have Everton agreed to sign and how does he compare to Thierno Barry, the Toffees' current first choice striker?

    A one-time Arsenal academy graduate, Balogun joined Monaco from the Gunners for £35m in 2023, going on to score 31 goals in 91 appearances for the Ligue 1 club.

    He missed four months of the 2024-25 campaign due to injury but after returning to fitness in April he enjoyed the most prolific season of his career to date in 2025-26, scoring 19 goals in 43 games in all competitions, including five in the Champions League.

    Whereas Barry is more of a target man adept at winning balls in the air, Balogun boasts greater pace and a game built around making runs behind opposition defences.

    At the World Cup earlier this summer, the 25-year-old averaged eight runs in behind per game, ranking him third of all strikers, and scored three goals.

    His goals-per-minute ratio was almost identical to that of Beto, who is leaving Everton for Fiorentina in a £15m deal, in league football last season.

    But Balogun's younger age and Champions League experience suggest his ceiling could be comparatively higher.

    His tally of 19 goals in all competitions last season is at least seven more than either Beto or Barry have managed in a single campaign with a club in an elite European league.

    I watched Balogun when he played at Middlesbrough. Not a strong player and finishing questionable. Don’t think it will work out for Everton.

  7. Ansah at Berlinpublished at 10:42 BST

    Hull City

    Ilyas Ansah featured in all but one of Union Berlin's matches last season.

    The 21-year-old striker scored five goals and assisted three times.

    On the international stage, he has played for Germany's under-20s and 21 side.

    Speaking to the club, Ansah said: “I’m very excited. It’s a dream come true for me to play in the Premier League, and for such a big club – it’s really an honour for me.

    “I have heard a lot about the club, the players and the team, and I’m excited to play with the boys and to get to know them.

    “It was an honour and a dream playing in the Bundesliga. Now, I have another dream to play in the Premier League, and I’m going to work hard for it.

    “I’m a very flexible player. I can play almost anywhere up front – on the left side, on the right side, maybe as a 10. I’m definitely a player who always gives his best and leaves it all on the pitch.

    “Taking my man on, beating players, shooting on target and scoring goals – that’s my main goal I want to reach at this club.

    “It’s been a really exciting start to the season – two wins out of two games. Now, it’s time for me to get into the team and be a part of what they are already achieving.”

    Honestly, I think Spurs would have had Ndiaye if Liverpool signed a Gakpo replacement. We made a good offer to Liverpool, but they don't want to sell, and rightly so. I still can't fathom why Spurs' board pivoted to Tosin and Mudryk, though.

    Tottenham have done it again! No Gakpo, no Ndiaye, no goalscorer. Kane has left a vacuum that can’t be filled. They’ve got 16 hours to come up with someone or risk a season with loads of talent running around but no end result.

    What started as a very promising window for Spurs has now seemingly turned into a 'get whatever is available' window. It seems like the Gapko situation, and Man City coming in and usurping us (and then not doing the deal anyway!) had a very negative ripple affect on our business.

    Sources indicate that there are other options for Setford ahead of the transfer deadline later today if the move to Spain doesn’t materialise.

    Chelsea midfielder Dario Essugo is no longer expected to join Hull City on loan despite recent talks.

    That option is now expected to be offer after the Tigers instead signed alternative midfield option Tim Iroegbunam from Everton.

    Essugo, a Portugal under-21s international, will likely stay at Chelsea or go to sister club Strasbourg to fill the final international loan spot available to the Stamford Bridge club.
