boom Transfer news LIVE updates: Stunning Mbappe bid claim, Bakayoko fee agreed, Man Utd latest

05:00: Chelsea have agreed a £39.9million fee to sign Monaco midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko. 

The Monaco midfielder is one of Antonio Conte's top transfer targets this summer. 

And French outlet RMC Sport claim he has finally got his man after reaching a £39.9m agreement with Monaco. 

It is said he will fly to London in the coming hours and undergo a medical on Friday. 

The report adds he will sign a five-year contract. 

04:30: Arsenal are set to re-sign Wellington Silva. 

The Gunners brought the Brazilian attacker to the Emirates in 2010 from Fluminense. 

But he failed to make his mark at the club, being loaned out for the next five years due to work permit issues. 

He was finally clear to play for Arsenal in the 2-15/26 season, but was shipped out on loan to Bolton in August. 

Silva then secured a permanent return to Fluminense last year. 

But Football.London claim the Gunners will re-sign the forward by activating a £3.6million buy-back clause. 

He will then be sold to Bordeaux with Arsenal set to profit from the transfer. 

04:00: Manchester United are planning to table a fresh bid to sign Monaco star Fabinho. 

Jose Mourinho is keen to bring in a defensive midfielde

8.35: Kylian Mbappe is now wanted by Manchester City as well as Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid, according to European football expert Graham Hunter

Hunter does not know where Mbappe will end up but says it's its hard to see him staying at monaco with those four clubs circling.

"The competition is wider than Arsenal, PSG and Real Madrid, Manchester City are speaking actively to Mbappe's representatives and saying 'come here, this is where to develop better than anywhere else. We will give you game time, we will teach you, we will pay you handsomely'," he said on Sky Sports.

"City are in that battle and at the moment it's hard to seeing him choosing Monaco over one of those."

18:30: Chelsea have reportedly offered Nathaniel Chalobah a bumper new contract.

Chalobah has been heavily linked with a move away from Chelsea this summer in search of first-team football, with Swansea and Watford both said to be interested.

The 22-year-old midfielder was limited to just 10 Premier League appearances last season - starting just one of those - as Chelsea clinched the title.

But The Mirror claim Chelsea have offered the England Under-21 international a five-year contract to stay at Stamford Bridge.

The new deal would take his wages from £45,000 to £65,000 a week, which would see him earn £17million over the five years.

18:20: Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has sanctioned the offer of a new deal for Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Daily Record claim the Swede is expected to return in the New Year and Mourinho wants him added to his ranks.

The report claims Mourinho is also looking for three more signings this summer and the Portuguese has asked for a new full back, holding midfielder and a player capable of playing across the second line of his attack as a winger or number 10. 

17:05: Any remaining hopes Antonio Conte has of landing Juventus star Leonardo Bonucci appear to be over.

The experienced defender has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in the past but CalcioMercato now claim he is set to complete a switch to AC Milan within the next 48 hours.

16:21: Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea wants to join Real Madrid this summer, according to reports in Spain.

Real Madrid are long-term admirers of De Gea, having nearly signed him in 2015 only for the £29million deal to collapse late on due to paperwork problems.

But Spanish transfer outlet Don Balon claim Real Madrid will try again this summer, with club president Florentino Perez desperate to land the Spain No 1.

De Gea is reportedly refusing to miss out on a move to the Bernabeu and is said to have told his agent Jorge Mendes to get the deal done.

Don Balon add that Perez will look to offload first-choice goalkeeper Keylor Navas to Paris Saint-Germain should Real sign De Gea.

16:05: Manchester City have agreed a fee in excess of £50m with Tottenham for Kyle Walker, according to Sky Sports.

The England international’s transfer will make him the world’s most expensive defender.

Walker will undergo a medical before putting pen to paper on a deal to become Guardiola’s third signing of the summer.

14.55: Nemanja Matic s reportedly looking to force through a move from Chelsea to Manchester United by this weekend.

The Daily Mail claim Matic is determined to get out and secure first-team football for himself at United, reuniting with former boss Jose Mourinho.

The Serbia international's representatives are said to be holding talks with the Blues this week, with a resolution expected by the weekend.

United are expected to offer the 28-year-old a long-term contract to ensure he moves to Old Trafford with Inter Milan also showing interest.
