Tottenham have 'stronger chance' as Man Utd wait on player decision and Aston Villa to lose key star

The new Premier League season is edging closer by the day, and clubs will now be ramping up their pre-season training. Summer tours are just around the corner for most clubs, and as ever, we will see plenty of friendlies between Premier League clubs around the world.

Arsenal, Chelsea and Tottenham will play their part in that, and all three will be working hard on new recruits over the coming weeks. In the meantime, we have rounded up all the latest transfer news from across the Premier League.

Ramsey to Spurs latest

Journalist Ben Jacobs believes Tottenham will target more attacking options than Aston Villa star Jacob Ramsey this summer. Jacobs told GiveMeSport: “Tottenham are still exploring whether Ramsey might be possible, but Villa don’t want to lose him, so they’re either going to have to pay big money for him, with or without Lo Celso, or they’re going to have to move on.

“And it may be that there are other players that they have a stronger chance of successfully getting, including Wolves’ Pedro Neto, Leipzig’s Lois Openda, and in a slightly different position, Lille’s Jonathan David.”

Sancho’s future

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been speaking about Jadon Sancho’s future at Old Trafford after last season’s bust-up between the two. Sancho was sent on loan to Borussia Dortmund last season with the two failing to find a resolution.

Ten Hag has now changed his tune, saying: “As we said, we draw the line. Manchester United need good players and Jadon is a good player. We have drawn that line and we move on.”

United waiting on player

Sticking with United, Lille have reportedly accepted an offer from the Old Trafford club for defender Leny Yoro. It’s claimed a deal worth 62million euros has been accepted, but the player himself will have the final say, and that is not an obvious decision.

It’s claimed Real Madrid have been in Yoro’s ear, and the Spanish club are willing to sign him for free next summer, something Lille want to avoid. Journalist Nabil Djellit claims Lille are desperate to avoid losing their star defender for nothing next summer, but the player could play hardball to secure a move to the Spanish capital.

Diaby exit moving quickly

Aston Villa already look set to cash in on last summer’s signing Moussa Diaby. According to journalist Gianluigi Longari, Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad are moving quickly in a bid to wrap up a deal for the winger.

It’s claimed a deal somewhere in the region of £46million could be done, with the player reportedly keen on a move. Villa paid a similar fee for Diaby around a year ago, albeit it was around £5million more, and they look set to get their money back amid a deal to re-sign Jaden Philogene from Hull City.

As for Diaby, it’s claimed a medical has already been booked and that the player has accepted the terms presented to him. The 25-year-old played in every one of Villa’s Premier League games last season, scoring six times.
