The January transfer window is now little more than a distant memory in European football and as such clubs across the continent are already making plans for the summer window. Teams are working tirelessly behind the scenes on identifying targets and figuring out their budgets.
Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals. A plethora of players will become available in the summer where clubs famously have more money to spend and aren’t as restricted by financial fair play rules. The rumour mill is beginning to pick up pace and we’ve collated some of the biggest current transfer stories.
Chelsea have reportedly joined the race to sign Real Betis winger Jesus Rodriguez in the summer. The 19-year-old talent has also attracted interest from Premier League rivals Liverpool, but according to the Daily Mail has a release clause of €50m.

Another Premier League tussle for one of Europe’s brightest talents looks set to play out for the signature of RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko. According to reports in England, Manchester United have joined the race to sign the Slovenian international, who has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal in recent months.
One player that could be set to depart a Premier League club next season is none other than recent Champions League hero Harvey Elliot. Shortly after scoring the winning goal for Liverpool against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night, new reports suggest that the young winger could be sent out on loan next season to pick up vital game time.
