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
Reports in Turkey claim that Wolves have made a £16m bid for the services of Croatian international defender Domagoj Vida.
The 29-year-old centre-back plays for Besiktas, but alerted a number of clubs across Europe thanks to his performances during this summer's tournament in Russia.
The reports claim that Liverpool, West Ham, Spurs and Leicester are also keen.
Meanwhile, another defender reportedly of interest to Wolves is John Kitolano.
The 18-year-old full-back is reportedly set to sign up at Molineux before this Thursday's transfer deadline.
He currently plays for Norwegian side Odds BK, who sit 10th in the Eliteserien.
West Brom
West Brom are thought to be edging closer to a deal which could see Salomon Rondon leave the club, with Dwight Gayle joining in return.
Albion and Newcastle re-opened talks of a potential move for both strikers over the weekend, with both players set to be moving on-loan.
Neither player featured for their respective teams over their side's latest games, adding fuel to the fire regarding the potential switch.
Reports in the press claim that Liverpool have put a £12m price tag on the head of Sheyi Ojo, a reported West Brom target.
It's thought that the winger is hoping to secure a move to a Premier League outfit this summer.
Fulham and Watford are both being credited with an interest in the former Wolves loanee.
Aston Villa
Aston Villa have reportedly agreed a fee with Bristol City for the signing of Joe Bryan.
The left-back is also wanted by Middlesbrough, with Tony Pulis also reportedly agreeing a similar fee for the 24-year-old.
That leaves the decision in the player's hands over which team he will join, if he decides to move on.
Meanwhile, Orjan Nyland's move to Villa Park appears to be edging closer, after the goalkeeper was pictured in Birmingham.
In a picture posted by the goalkeeper's agent, Nyland is seen alongside Villa midfielder Birkir Bjarnason at the Belfry.
It's thought that the stopper would take up the currently vacant number one shirt at B6.
Walsall
Bristol Rovers could confirm the signing of Amadou Bakayoko today, with the striker set to depart Walsall.
The Saddlers are believed to have agreed a six-figure fee for the 22-year-old.
The striker didn't feature in the 2-1 win over Plymouth on Saturday.
