Wolves
Barcelona want £36m for defender Yerry Mina, according to reports.
The Colombian centre-back is of interest to Wolves, although Everton are still the favourites for his signature with the bookies.
Barcelona are willing to let the defender leave according to reports, but want a sizeable fee and a buy back clause included should he impress away from Spain.
Wolves will need to battle Porto for the signing of Pepe, if reports on the continent are true.
The veteran defender was linked with a move to Wolves following the conclusion of the World Cup.
It's thought that Porto are also keen on him, with Besiktas open to letting him leave with just one year left on his current deal at the club.
West Brom
Albion are reportedly eyeing a move for Liverpool winger Sheyi Ojo.
Liverpool are thought to be open to letting the 21-year-old leave Anfield, following their recent raft of signings.
Nottingham Forest and Reading have also been linked with a move.
Meanwhile, Newcastle are reportedly considering a loan move for Salomon Rondon which would also see Dwight Gayle head to The Hawthorns.
The Magpies have held an interest in the Venezuelan striker all summer, but don't want to splash the cash on a permanent deal.
It's thought that both clubs could be open to a loan swap move for the duo, if reports are true.
Aston Villa
Jack Grealish has seen his odds slashed regarding an exit from Villa Park.
The star was heavily tipped to leave the club this summer, but now his odds have been cut to just 7/4.

Meanwhile, Villa are outsiders to secure the services of Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart.
Bookmakers have the side listed at 16/1 to sign the former England international, who's set to leave the Etihad.
