Transfer Rumours - May 24th

The extracts on this page are taken from various newspapers and media outlets. They do not reflect the views of the Express and Star.

Wolves

Reports on the continent claim that Wolves are keen on Bayer Leverkusen stopper Bernd Leno.

The German is well-known in Europe and is just one of a number of goalkeepers linked with a move to Molineux so far following their promotion to the Premier League.

Atletico Madrid are also thought to rate Leno highly, as they fear the departure of current glovesman Jan Oblak.

Meanwhile, reports in Italy state that Wolves are strongly interested in full-back Joao Cancelo.

The right-sided defender spent the last season on-loan at Inter Milan from Valencia, and is being touted with a permanent move this summer, possibly to the Premier League.

The 23-year-old is a client of Jorge Mendes' Gestufute agency and was previously linked with Manchester United.

West Brom

Tottenham Hotspur are tracking West Brom's Egyptian defender Ahmed Hegazi, according to reports.

The defender has been a key player for Albion this season, signing a permanent deal less than six months ago after impressing on his initial loan.

Spurs could be set to lose Toby Alderweireld this summer, so could be in the market for a replacement.

Stoke are among the favourites to sign West Brom winger James McClean this summer.

Bookmakers have tipped Gary Rowett's side to chase the Albion man, with the manager previously interested with bringing him to Derby.

The Potters are 1/2 with some bookies to bring McClean to the Bet365 Stadium, with Celtic now 10/1.

Aston Villa

West Ham are set to do battle with Aston Villa for the signing of Reims goalkeeper Edouard Mendy, reports claim.

The 6ft 5in stopper has attracted the attention of a number of English clubs, including Newcastle, Cardiff and Bristol City.

It's reported that Villa would only be keen on a move if they fail to secure Sam Johnstone's services on a permanent basis.

Reports claim Peterborough United have put a £6.5m price tag on prized forward Jack Marriott.

Aston Villa were reportedly keen on the forward, alongside the likes of Leeds, Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday.

The 23-year-old netted 33 goals in all competitions this season.

Walsall

Walsall boss Dean Keates is scouring the non-league market as he looks to bolster his squad ahead of the new season.

The Saddlers have already signed Andy Cook this month, and are not worried about searching non-league for more potential targets.

Keates has already stated his desire to mould his squad this summer with new signings.
