As expected, Dani Ceballos is going back to Real Madrid.

It's a shame it hasn't worked out... About 10 good games in 2 years is clearly not enough to pull the trigger. Way too inconsistent but i'm sure he will find a club in La Liga and regain some form.
Banged them in for fun at Genk who finished 2nd this season -- about 35~ goals in 40 or so games in all comps, but he's about 6ft8. Genk will certainly let him go for the right price, but I'd be extremely surprised if it's a club close to Arsenal's level.
This is more than just an article about Buendia. It also includes Mike McGrath's transfer notebook. Key points:
- Buendia's price can go up to 40 million Pounds.
- Arsenal have yet to formally approach Norwich for Buendia.
- Arsenal's Buendia pursuit depends on Odegaard's potential future with Arsenal.
- Arteta quotes:
- Another loan may be possible for Odegaard.
- Arteta quotes:
- Atlético de Madrid have offered Trippier a contract extension.
- Trippier's contract will expire in 2 years.
Grealish to City > Buendia to Villa? Makes sense on paper - pretty similar players.
Buendia plus mainly on the right. Grealish off the left.
Fair point! Both together would go some way to get Villa to consolidate themselves a serious top half side.
So Koeman stays?
It depends on how much he wants to be back in Spain. Now he has a kid to think about it wouldn't be overly surprising to see him take a pay cut.
We don't know. These signings could have been OK'd by the directors and board regardless of Koeman's future with the club. They're at a crossroads especially after the recent elections, and I think that Laporta will probably start making an impact beyond this summer.
Roma have been getting linked to tons of players just because Mourinho's their manager.
Mbappe would be a fool to renew his contract with PSG, while wanting to go Real Madrid (which he can easily do next season).
El Correo is a local Basque newspaper, so they could have sources at Alavés, which is a Basque club.
I've been saying similar for well over a year. I hope we steer clear, and I have said in the past that Wolves would sell for £30m. So I'm not surprised with the price tag put forth by The Athletic.
No way Roma can afford even half of De Gea's wages.
For a translation and some background info:
EDIT (not included in the article): AC Milan and Napoli are also continuing to monitor him.
That soon, eh?
I also wonder how he'll fit in with Mourinho. He tends to operate better when out wide than through the middle, and I'm also not sure if Mourinho would want to tolerate his inconsistencies and questionable decision-making.
Damn, just a summary of how bad Barcelona's signings have been lately. Not so long ago their "bad" signings ended up in top teams, now they go to teams such as Wolves, Zenit, Everton, etc

Didn't even know he had left Leicester!
Yeah I checked that before when people were moaning in the last Mourinho summer or Ole's first and we get most of our signings done for preseason.
Bayern would definitely be the better career choice but Barca still has the appeal I guess.
He just needs to play at a high level at a club where he's getting regular minutes tbh. Risking it at a club challenging for honours might impede his development.
He caused a bit of a stink as was in the u23s
Laurie Whitwell also reports that Heaton will sign for United.
He's basically been a 2nd/3rd choice keeper at Villa, too, so with Grant possibly retiring and Romero leaving, bringing Heaton in isn't such a bad idea.
Yes he needs to be playing in the Championship at a minimum to prepare him for English football's physicality.
Joins from Ipswich.

He is a £100m player in the making for me.....but he isnt yet and with a year left on his contract that is a ludicrous fee. That is the kind of fee you would pay for Mbappe with a year left on his contract, it is like they are valuing him at £150-200m if it wasnt for the contract.
Personally find it hard to believe there is any truth at all in the fee mentioned, wouldnt surprise me for him to go there though
