Transfer Rumours - July 6
Expressandstar.com brings you all the latest transfer talk from Wolves, West Brom, Aston Villa and Walsall.
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
Fulham are continuing their pursuit of Wolves winger Ivan Cavaleiro, and are reportedly considering a £16m bid for his services.
The Portuguese attacker was key in last season's title-winning campaign, and seems to have interested fellow promoted side Fulham throughout the summer.
If true, Wolves could opt to cash in on a sizeable profit for the 24-year-old, who signed up for £7m in 2016.
One player who it seems isn't joining Wolves is Jack Wilshere, who's reportedly set for a move to West Ham.
The midfielder was linked heavily with a move to Molineux earlier this summer, after confirming that he wouldn't be staying at Arsenal after his contract expired.
The Hammers have reportedly won the race for his signature though, keeping him in London for the foreseeable future.
West Brom
Albion continue to hold an interest in Swansea defender Kyle Bartley, reports claim.
The Baggies need to shore up their defensive line ahead of the upcoming season, having already seen Jonny Evans and Gareth McAuley depart - and with Craig Dawson also handing in a transfer request.
Leeds and Birmingham City are also reportedly keen on the £4m-rated centre-back.
Meanwhile, reports suggest that Albion could look to sign Aston Villa goalkeeper Mark Bunn, as back up to Sam Johnstone.
Bunn has rarely featured for Villa since joining the club, and played second fiddle to Pierluigi Gollini and Johnstone at Villa Park since their drop into the Championship.
Albion could use their rivals' precarious financial situation to their advantage by picking up the goalkeeper for a cheap outlay.
Aston Villa
Steve Bruce is reportedly set to do battle for Yeovil Town defender Tom James.
Villa are having to compete with a stringent financial budget this summer, so see James as a potentially cheap purchase.
They could face competition from Bristol City, Hull and Swansea for his services.
Meanwhile, Sheffield United are reportedly eyeing a move for Aston Villa striker Scott Hogan on-loan.
Hogan has so far had a mixed spell at B6 since joining, originally struggling before netting eight times last season.
However, with Villa needing to tighten their belt financially, they could consider letting the striker depart.
Walsall
Walsall could be set to cash in on a sell-on clause tied to former striker Tom Bradshaw, as reported claim he's set for a move to Millwall.
Bradshaw joined the Tykes from Walsall in 2016, and now the Saddlers could see more cash come in from the deal, should he move on to the Den.
The Welshman is reportedly set to leave for £1m, with a portion of that fee heading to the Midlands.
