Manchester City are keen on Everton winger Iliman Ndiaye, but could face competition from Arsenal, per Talk SPORT. The 26-year-old rejected a contract extension, and Everton value him at £80 million. Arsenal's pursuit may depend on missing out on Atlético Madrid forward Julián Álvarez. Meanwhile, the Gunners have also inquired about Marseille winger Igor Paixão, who has agreed personal terms with Sunderland. The 26-year-old scored 10 goals and six assists in 38 Ligue 1 matches last season, with Aston Villa among clubs tracking his situation.

Liverpool have placed Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott atop their shortlist to reinforce defensive midfield, though a deal may be delayed until next summer due to Bournemouth's £90 million valuation. Scott has also been linked with Chelsea as a potential replacement for Manchester City-linked Enzo Fernández.

Additionally, Liverpool's Harvey Elliott is attracting interest from Napoli and Lazio, while Manchester City's Jack Grealish is on Everton, Aston Villa, and Sunderland's radar. PSG and Liverpool have restarted discussions over Bradley Barcola, with Ipswich Town closing in on Exequiel Palacios for €22.5 million.
