    Liverpool are reportedly not interested in signing Newcastle United youngster Yankuba Minteh this summer.

    Minteh registered four goals and six assists in 17 appearances for Danish side Odense, before he completed a £6.5m move to Newcastle in the last summer transfer window.

    The 19-year-old was immediately sent on loan to Dutch giants Feyenoord, where he gained valuable game time to aid his development.

    The Gambia international made 37 competitive during his time in the Netherlands, scoring 11 goals and providing six assists.

    Liverpool 'attempted to hijack' Juventus move for 26-year-old goalkeeper

    Liverpool reportedly tried and failed to hijack a move for a Juventus-bound goalkeeper amid uncertainty over two of their shot-stoppers.

    Formerly on the books at Inter Milan, Michele Di Gregorio has since made a name for himself with Serie A upstarts Monza, who originally signed him on loan for the 2020-21 campaign.

    Di Gregorio immediately found his feet at Monza, playing a significant role in their promotion from Serie B in the 2021-22 season with 15 clean sheets in that second-tier campaign.

    Rather than return to Inter Milan, who prioritised the signing of Andre Onana, the 26-year-old joined Monza permanently for just £3.5m and has continued to excel in the top flight of Italian football.

    Wolves 'hold talks' with former Chelsea striker

    Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly interested in bringing a former Chelsea forward back to the Premier League.

    In Gary O'Neil's first season in charge, the West Midlands outfit performed better than anticipated, yet a poor end to the campaign resulted in a 14th-placed finish.

    That was partly down to Wolves' lack of strength in depth in the final third, O'Neil having to resort to using academy players Nathan Fraser and Leon Chiwone on a number of occasions.

    Heading into the summer transfer window, Wolves do not necessarily have to sell any players - as has been the case recently - yet Pedro Neto and Matheus Cunha have been linked with big-money moves away from Molineux.

    Manchester United are reportedly prepared to shell out almost £60m to win the race for an in-demand Serie A midfielder this summer.

    Atalanta BC lynchpin Teun Koopmeiners sent tongues wagging back in March, confirming his desire to leave the Italian giants amid interest from the Premier League.

    Despite his admission, the Netherlands international continued to play a key role for Gian Piero Gasperini's men in 2023-24, ending the campaign with a Europa League winners' medal around his neck.

    Formerly a defensive midfielder, Koopmeiners has since enjoyed a seamless transition into a number 10 role and contributed 15 goals and seven assists from 51 matches last season, including 12 strikes in Serie A.

    Newcastle United have reportedly entered into discussions over a potential move for Burnley goalkeeper James Trafford during this summer's transfer window.

    Trafford, 21, made 28 Premier League appearances for Burnley during the 2023-24 campaign, but he lost the number one spot at Turf Moor in the final stages of the season.

    The stopper has a contract with the Clarets until June 2027, but there is currently speculation surrounding his future, with a number of clubs thought to be interested in his signature.

    According to talkSPORT, Newcastle have contacted Trafford to register their interest, and the Magpies have been told that Burnley want £20m for his services.

    Arsenal have reportedly dropped their interest in one of their chief attacking targets for the summer transfer window after baulking at his price tag.

    After four successful seasons at Napoli, Victor Osimhen is expected to call time on his career with the 2022-23 Serie A champions this summer, as confirmed by club president Aurelio de Laurentiis.

    The Partenopei have fought tooth and nail to keep hold of the Nigeria international and agreed a new contract with their star striker last December, but his terms only run until the summer of 2026.

    With Osimhen's contract also including a release clause worth around €130m (£110.6m), De Laurentiis has resigned himself to losing the former Lille man to one of Europe's financial powerhouses ahead of 2023-24.
