Transfer Rumours - August 7

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 Spain claim that Wolves have had a €25m bid turned down by Real Sociedad for Diego Llorente.

The central defender is now apparently of interest to Everton.

Rumour has it that the La Liga side value their man at around €40m.

Wolves are the bookies' favourites to sign Spurs midfielder Victor Wanyama ahead of tomorrow's deadline.

The former Celtic man could see his chances at first-team football take a hit following the arrival of Tanguy Ndombele at the north London club, leading bookmakers to offer a price on a move.

Wolves sit at 3/1 to sign the Kenyan, whilst Bournemouth, West Ham, Galatasaray and Southampton round off the race.

West Brom

Sheffield Wednesday are keen on signing former West Brom loanee Jacob Murphy.

The winger spent the second portion of last season at The Hawthorns, but failed to stamp his authority at the club during their failed bid for promotion.

Fulham, Derby and Huddersfield are also being credited with an interest.

West Ham and Aston Villa could derail West Brom's hopes of signing FC Basel striker Albian Ajeti.

The 22-year-old is wanted by the Baggies, but interest in the top flight could lead him to sign elsewhere.

West Ham already signed Sebastian Haller this summer, whilst Villa have brought in Wesley Moraes in a club-record deal.

Aston Villa

Villa are not interested in a move for Mbaye Diagne before tomorrow's transfer deadline.

Reports had surfaced online claiming that Dean Smith's side were keen on the Galatasaray striker, but they aren't on the mark.

Villa do still want to bolster up front, so could add to their hefty expenditure this summer before 5pm tomorrow.

Stoke City are keen on a move for former Villa loanee Axel Tuanzebe, according to reports.

The Manchester United defender was a key part of Villa's promotion side last season, but is facing a battle to start for United following Harry Maguire's arrival at Old Trafford.

Villa have bolstered defensively already, meaning a move back to B6 is unlikely.

Walsall

No fresh Walsall rumours.
