The latest transfer rumours and completed deals including the latest on Jack Wilshere, James Maddison, Jorginho and more.
The World Cup has taken priority - but a number of deals have been done over the past 48 hours
Leicester City have made an offer of around £20million for Norwich midfielder James Maddison, Press Association Sport understands.
The Foxes are leading the chase for the 21-year-old who is believed to be keen on a move to the King Power Stadium
Southampton and Everton are also interested in the England Under-21 star.
Maddison scored 15 goals for the Sky Bet Championship club last season and is one of the most highly-rated players outside the Premier League.
West Ham are interested in Juventus midfielder Stefano Sturaro, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
The 25-year-old struggled to nail down a place in the first team under Max Allegri last season and is thought to be available for around £20m.
The Hammers are reportedly likely to face competition from Leicester and Everton.
Manchester City are finally set to seal the signing of Napoli midfielder Jorginho, according to Corriere dello Sport.
The Serie A club’s owner, Aurelio De Laurentiis, said that while the clubs have not yet found an agreement, they are getting closer.
The deal apparently hinged on Napoli securing a replacement and, in Real Betis’ Fabian Ruiz, they have done so, paving the way for Jorginho to join City.
Jack Wilshere is apparently set to leave Arsenal after being told he is not a key figure in Unai Emery’s plans.
The Daily Mirror are reporting that Wilshere wanted to stay at the Emirates and had even agreed a deal.
However, Emery could not guarantee the midfielder, whose deal expires this summer, that he would start regularly.
Wolves, West Ham and Everton are among the clubs said to be interested.
In the Sky Bet EFL, Aston Villa lead a number of Sky Bet Championship clubs in the race to sign Paris FC defender Samuel Yohou.
Sporting Life understands that a trio of second-tier sides have expressed their interest in the 26-year-old, who is a free agent following the expiration of his contract.
Yohou was a regular presence for Paris during the second-half of the season, contributing one goal and a further assist in 22 league appearances.
Germany left-back Marvin Plattenhardt could seal a £16million summer transfer to Everton, according to the Daily Star Sunday.
The left-back is said to have been identified as Leighton Baines’ long-term successor at Goodison Park.
Reports say that he’s open to making the move from Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin - but only after the World Cup.
