Man Utd duo off to Saudi?

Raphael Varane has been linked with a shock move to Saudi Arabia, but there is nothing to those rumours.

Less shocking is that Mason Greenwood has also been linked with a move to the Pro League, but Steven Gerrard has already branded links to his Al-Ettifaq as 'fake news.'

Should Greenwood get sold, Manchester United are under pressure to donate any funds raised from the deal to charities.

Chelsea to sign wonderkid after all

Fabrizio Romano has assured Chelsea fans that the Deivid Washington is still very much and expected to be completed despite the lengthy delay.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. One of Barcelona's four club captains had rejected a lucrative Saudi switch.

Fenerbahce goalkeeper Altay Bayindir was in Greece for a Man Utd 'pre-medical' ahead of a potential move.

Konstantinos Mavropanos has completed his West Ham move - and Arsenal are to be handsomely rewarded for it.

The Gunners also stand to gain from Chelsea's record Moises Caicedo transfer.

Romelu Lukaku is still no closer to a Blues exit and it has now been revealed that he has been completely banished from the first team.

Real Madrid legend Paul Breitner has branded Neymar a 'deceitful germ' after his Saudi move.

One of Man City's big-money transfers is off after a surprise twist.

And lastly, Chelsea have let youngster Lewis Hall join Newcastle in a deal that will almost certainly come back to bite them.
