Sports Mole rounds up all of the latest transfer news in the Premier League on Sunday, November 8.

Sunday morning's Premier League transfer talk news roundup:


Arsenal target Houssem Aouar 'still wants Premier League move'

Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar still dreams of playing in the Premier League one day, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The Frenchman was linked with a move to Arsenal all throughout the summer, but with the North London outfit's offer supposedly coming up short, Aouar remained at Lyon, where he boasts two goals and one assist in the current Ligue 1 season.

Despite failing in their summer pursuit of Aouar, Arsenal bolstered their midfield options with the signing of Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid, but Romano claims that the Gunners could still be in with a chance of landing Aouar due to his desire to play in the English top flight.

The journalist also hinted that Arsenal may divert their attention to another midfield option if a move for Aouar falls through, saying on his Here We Go podcast: "[Aouar] is in love with the Premier League, so let's see what Arsenal will decide.

"What I'm told is that Arsenal are looking to sign this kind of player. They were looking [at] Aouar, they are now considering the situation of Dominik Szoboszlai.

"The situation is that Arsenal [have been] following Szoboszlai [for] years. So, let's see what will happen next summer or January, but Arsenal are following the player."

A recent report claimed that Szoboszlai's agent has confirmed Arsenal's interest in the RB Salzburg man, who is contracted to his club until 2022, whereas Aouar's deal at Lyon will expire in 2023.



James Rodriguez reveals Manchester United offer

Everton attacker James Rodriguez has revealed that Manchester United attempted to sign him in 2012.

The 29-year-old turned out for Porto between 2010 and 2013 before joining Monaco, spending one season with the Ligue 1 side ahead of a switch to Real Madrid in 2014.

Rodriguez largely struggled to make his mark at the Bernabeu, though, and after a two-year loan spell with Bayern Munich and a disappointing 2019-20 season with Madrid, the Colombia international joined Everton during the recent transfer window.

The attacker is expected to line up against United in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon, and he has revealed that the 20-time English champions made an offer for him eight years ago.

"I believe it was in 2012. The club [Man Utd] had offered me something, but in the end that didn't happen because of some reason I don't know. But well - football always leads you to the correct path, to a team where you can actually play well," Rodriguez told BT Sport.

The South American has been in impressive form for the Toffees during the 2020-21 campaign, contributing three goals and four assists in seven appearances in all competitions.
