Crystal Palace 'line up' Liverpool transfer as Napoli 'working on final details' of Man Utd deal

The Premier League season is now well underway with two weekends of action already in the books. Crystal Palace are the only London side without a win so far, with all of the other London sides currently on one win.

Chelsea and Tottenham stood out over the weekend, sharing 10 goals between them, while West Ham and Fulham also got off the mark. With the transfer deadline on Friday night, we have rounded up all the latest news and transfer rumours surrounding the top flight.

Palace ‘identify’ Guehi replacement

Crystal Palace face the very real possibility of losing Marc Guehi before Friday’s deadline, with Newcastle United expected to sign the England defender on a deal worth £65million in all.

According to the Standard, Palace have already lined up a possible replacement for their star defender, considering a deal for Liverpool wantaway Joe Gomez. Gomez reportedly wants to leave Anfield in a bid to land more regular starts. Gomez will reportedly be available for between £30million and £35million.

Aguerd ‘rejects’ move

West Ham star Nayef Aguerd has reportedly rejected an offer from a European club this month. Fussball Transfers report that Wolfsburg have made an approach for Aguerd, who is out of favour with the Hammers.

Aguerd has rejected the move, though, and while he is said to be open to a move before Friday’s deadline, he is not willing to join Wolfsburg at this stage. The Morocco international has made 39 appearances for the Hammers since arriving from Rennes in 2022.

McTominay on the move

Napoli are said to be wrapping up a surprise deal to sign Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay. The likes of Fulham have been linked with a deal for the Scot, but it appears he will now be heading to the South of Italy.

Gianluca Di Marzio report that the ‘final details’ are now being ironed out between Napoli and the midfielder’s representatives. McTominay was a key player for the Red Devils last season but he now looks set to be sold as United look to upgrade with the signing of Manuel Ugarte. Napoli will likely pay more than £20million.
