Rennes protege Desire Doue has reportedly decided on Paris Saint-Germain as his next club, ending the uncertainty surrounding his future.
The 19-year-old has supposedly been courted by a number of clubs since breaking into the Les Rouges et Noir first team, scoring four goals and setting up five more in 31 Ligue 1 matches last season.
Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Bayern Munich and PSG were all linked with swoops for Doue, who was a member of France's silver medal-winning troupe at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Bayern and PSG ended up engaging in a two-horse race for the teenager's signature, and according to Fabrizio Romano, the French champions have beaten their German counterparts to a deal.
Romano adds that Luis Enrique, Luis Campos and Nasser Al-Khelaifi were all central to persuading Doue to snub Bayern Munich, and the formalities of his move should be completed soon.
Doue will leave Rennes with a record of eight goals and seven assists in 76 matches for Les Rouges et Noir in all tournaments, and his contract only ran until the summer of 2026.
West Ham eyeing swoop for ex-Chelsea man?
While Doue will not be ending up in the Premier League just yet, there is every chance that Roma striker and former Chelsea protege Tammy Abraham could be making a return to British shores.
The England international found form at Roma after being deemed surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge, but he played just 12 times for Roma in the 2023-24 campaign due to an ACL injury.
Abraham still has two years left on his contract with the Giallorossi, but as the Italian giants have signed Artem Dovbyk from Girona, they will likely be open to letting the 26-year-old leave for the right price.
Everton and Bournemouth are both believed to be battling for Abraham's services, and according to Football Insider, West Ham are now in the picture, despite signing Niclas Fullkrug from Borussia Dortmund.
A fee of £25m could apparently be enough to prise Abraham away from Roma, whose Serie A foes AC Milan and Atalanta BC - both of whom can offer Champions League football - are also in the picture.
Abraham is apparently leaning towards a move to Milan owing to their stature, but the Rossoneri have already captured Alvaro Morata this summer, and the Englishman's priority for 2024-25 is regular game time.
Ivan Toney on Saudi Pro League shortlist?
From one English striker to another, and Brentford talisman Ivan Toney could be set for a left-field move away from the Bees, as he is supposedly wanted by the Saudi Pro League.
Back in January, when Toney returned from his eight-month betting ban, Arsenal and Chelsea were being tipped to engage in a heated summer battle for a player that Brentford valued at around £100m.
However, both London giants ended up cooling their interest in the 28-year-old, who has also been linked with West Ham and Tottenham Hotspur moves after entering the final 12 months of his contract.
Brentford are now seriously struggling to find Premier League suitors for Toney, though, and in a separate update from Romano, the forward could be handed a Saudi Pro League lifeline.
Al-Ahli are said to be driving the interest in Toney, who would link up with the likes of Roberto Firmino, Edouard Mendy, Riyad Mahrez, Franck Kessie and Gabri Veiga should he join the Public Investment Fund-backed giants.
Toney has amassed 72 goals and 23 assists in 141 matches for Brentford and played a key role in England's run to the Euro 2024 final, setting up Harry Kane's winner against Slovakia in the last 16 and scoring in the quarter-final penalty shootout against Switzerland.
Feyenoord 'join race' for wantaway Liverpool defender
Finally, Liverpool defender Sepp van den Berg continues to drum up interest from a plethora of European teams, and Arne Slot's former club Feyenoord are thought to be the latest to show an interest.
The Dutchman has been heavily involved in the Reds' pre-season campaign since returning from a successful loan spell at Mainz 05, where he scored three goals in 33 Bundesliga appearances.
Earlier this summer, Van den Berg slammed Liverpool for 'hindering his future', although he has since changed his tune and has left the door open to continuing his career at Anfield.
The 22-year-old is unlikely to get regular starts under Slot next season, though, and according to Dutch outlet VI, Feyenoord are keen to bring Van den Berg back to his homeland.
Slot's erstwhile club face stiff competition from the likes of PSV Eindhoven, Stuttgart, Hoffenheim, Wolfsburg, Mainz, Borussia Monchengladbach and Bayer Leverkusen, though, and Liverpool are not willing to let him leave for less than £20m.
Van den Berg has only played four senior matches for Liverpool since joining from Zwolle in 2019, and none since an FA Cup fourth-round replay win over Shrewsbury Town in February 2020.
