Liverpool and Newcastle United are pursuing Lille forward Matias Fernandez-Pardo, 21, who scored eight goals and assisted six last season. The versatile attacker made three appearances for Belgium at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with Lille valuing him around €75 million. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace winger Ismaïla Sarr is pushing for a move to Liverpool, with The Sun reporting the Senegal international is open to joining Andoni Iraola's side after two successful seasons at Palace.

Liverpool have made a fresh offer for the 28-year-old, though Palace have yet to respond. Sunderland are confident of beating Everton to a loan deal for Manchester City winger Jack Grealish, 30, believing they can cover his reported £300,000-a-week wages while offering European football in the UEFA Europa League. AC Milan have reached an agreement with Nottingham Forest to sign Omari Hutchinson on an initial loan with an option to make the move permanent, with the obligation triggered if certain conditions are met.

Newcastle striker Nick Woltemade could leave on loan, with Napoli his most serious suitors, though Juventus and RB Leipzig have also been linked. The 24-year-old, under contract until 2031, was an unused substitute in Newcastle's season-opening draw with Liverpool. Barcelona are in "very advanced" negotiations with Arsenal over signing Brazilian striker Gabriel Jesus, 29, who has one year remaining on his contract.
