Lewis Hall has reportedly agreed a new multi-year contract with Newcastle United, fending off interest from Manchester United. The 22-year-old left back has committed his future to the Magpies, with an announcement expected later this week. Newcastle were determined to keep Hall, especially after the departures of Anthony Gordon, Bruno Guimarães and Sandro Tonali.

Liverpool are on high alert regarding Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton, expected to leave in one of the next two transfer windows, potentially as early as January. Liverpool have long admired the 22-year-old, though they prioritized other areas this summer. Palace stood firm against advances in the winter window, but it is now highly unlikely they will retain Wharton. Newcastle also monitor the situation.

Chelsea are in a strong position to sign Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott, though the Cherries will not offload the 23-year-old cheaply. Any deal would require a large fee and add-ons. Bayer Leverkusen are on the verge of extending the contract of Christian Kofane until 2031, with the 20-year-old striker seen as a Premier League candidate after impressing Arsenal.

Inter Milan and Juventus continue to monitor Borussia Dortmund forward Samuele Inácio, 18, who has been with Dortmund since signing from Atalanta in 2024.
