Transfer News LIVE - Every rumour, every done deal: Spurs making BIG moves, Real Madrid REBUILD

World Cup winner Emmanuel Petit reckons PSG have hugely benefitted by Kylian Mbappe's exit to Real Madrid last summer.

“Everyone at PSG (the board, the fans) said that, since he left, they finally had a real team, with soul," the Frenchman said.

“Everyone played for each other and there were no selfish footballers on the pitch. 

“And recently it seems that it was shown that they were right to close the door on Kylian, who also wanted to go to Madrid himself.”

PSG won the treble the season Mbappe left.

Newcastle could look to hijack Artem Dovbyk's proposed move to Villarreal.

With Evan Ferguson seemingly the number one choice for the striker role at Roma these days, Dovbyk is on the cusp of a loan move to Villareal in La Liga, where he previously finished top scorer with Girona.

However, Newcastle are desperate for a new striker, potentially as a replacement for Alexander Isak, and have moved quickly to try and sign the Ukraine forward. (Filippo Biafora)

Porto are closing in on a deal to sign Jakub Kiwior from Arsenal.

The Polish central defender has acted as a backup to Gabriel and William Saliba during his time at the club and will fall further down the pecking order if the Gunners sign Piero Hincapie from Leverkusen.

Porto have struck a deal to sign him initially on loan with an obligation to buy for €27 million. (Eduardo Burgos)

Fabrizio Romano says Roma are working on a deal to bring Tyrique George to the Italian capital from Chelsea.

The transfer expert wrote on X:

"AS Roma keep working on Tyrique George deal as exclusively revealed on Saturday. Talks ongoing with his camp and Chelsea over deal formula, preference for permanent move. Bundesliga clubs also keen with RB Leipzig and more in contact with player’s agents."

Roma have seemingly ended their interest in Jadon Sancho due to his wage demands.

Eddie Howe is looking for "clarity" regarding the Alexander Isak situation.

"I've not been party to talks on this for a long time now," he told reporters on Monday night.

"I've been preparing the team and giving all my energy to the players that want to play for Newcastle. I think that is where my energy is best put at the moment. We want clarity, we want to move forward, we want the narrative to change because we're in the start of the season now.

"We're into the action and we've got to get results, and we've got to try to focus on what we can control. We've given two really, really good performances, we've ended up with one point. That's tough for us to take, especially in this moment where you're looking for positives to cling to.

"But we battle through and we now go on to Leeds."

Jamie Carragher reckons Newcastle should sell Alexander Isak before deadline day.

Speaking ahead of Newcastle's home game against Liverpool on Monday, he said: 

"I don't think a deal was ever going to get done before this game. I could not see that. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next few days. I can't believe that for Liverpool it is just Isak or no one but it does feel like that the closer we get to the end of the window.

"Thierry Henry said that Isak is a must for Liverpool. I have never been of that opinion - [I am] one of the few Liverpool fans who is all in on Isak and we have to spend this money. I don't think he is as durable as someone like Mo Salah. Actually, over the last three seasons he has missed 36 league games. It is almost a season out of three seasons.

"But I think Newcastle should sell Isak.

"There will be so many people outside telling Newcastle and Eddie Howe what they need to do. You have to be strong. You have to show Liverpool or any other club that players cannot just come in and demand to go. But they don't have the problem of Isak every day. They don't have the problem that Eddie Howe has of going to every press conference and being asked about it. It is a cloud over the club constantly."

Anthony Gordon has taken to social media to apologise for his red card challenge on Virgil van Dijk during Newcastle's late 3-2 loss versus Liverpool.

He wrote: "I want to sincerely apologise to my team-mates and the fans. My intentions were pure. I was just trying to create energy in the game and I mistimed the tackle. 

"I would never intend to tackle somebody like this on purpose. We spoke after and he [Van Dijk] knows that. More importantly, I'm so proud of the time I spent on the pitch and how we played tonight. The atmosphere is what makes St James Park so special. 

"I love everything we stand for as a club, no more than right now. I'll be back and better, the same as every other setback I have faced."
