Crystal Palace is preparing a bold £50 million bid to sign West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen, according to The Sun.
This comes as the Eagles look to bolster their squad for the current season, though negotiations may prove challenging given Bowen's importance to his current club.
Multiple transfers for Arsenal and Aston Villa
The Daily Mail also reports that Saudi club Al Hilal is considering a double Premier League swoop for Arsenal’s Gabriel Martinelli and Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins. These moves could shake up the summer transfer window. Unai Emery, Aston Villa’s manager, was questioned about Ollie Watkins’ future following his side’s heavy 4-0 defeat to Brighton at the Amex Stadium. He responded vaguely, saying one would need to “call the player” for clarity. When pressed on potential tensions, the manager did not deny reports that Watkins had refused to play in the match.
Watkins at the center of speculation
British media has highlighted ongoing disagreements between Watkins and his club, adding pressure as Aston Villa aims to stabilize its squad for the remainder of the season. Supporters and players from Newcastle and Liverpool paid tribute to Kevin Keegan, a legend of English football, ahead of their Premier League opener. The match, held at St James’ Park, served as a celebration of the former international’s legacy.
Moves in Serie A and Germany
In Europe, Preston North End player Milutin Osmajic, known for his repeated suspensions, is set to join Genoa in Serie A, according to the Daily Mail. His departure marks the end of a controversial chapter in England. In Germany, Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane was voted 2026 Player of the Year by a sports journalists' association, ahead of teammate Michael Olise. This accolade highlights his major influence on the pitch. Former Manchester United player Paul Pogba has reduced the price of his five-bedroom property in Cheshire from £3.95 million to £3.5 million, a cut of £450,000, after difficulties selling it. This decision comes as he leaves AS Monaco. Finally, in Scotland, Couhaib Driouech, initially set to join Rangers, may now remain at PSV after his transfer fell through. Meanwhile, Nicolas Kuhn, a former Celtic player, has been placed on the transfer list after being left out of Como’s squad.
