Transfer news LIVE: Man Utd swap deal as Newcastle eye their own Cole Palmer

With pre-season tours underway, Premier League clubs have started to accelerate their transfer plans this summer in the hope of getting new signings integrated into their respective squads before the 2024/25 campaign begins.

Manchester United and Chelsea have been the busiest of the ‘Big Six’ clubss in the window so far, with both sides already welcoming new players to their ranks and now hoping to continue their spending sprees by selling some of their fringe stars to raise funds.

On the other hand, Manchester City, Arsenal and Liverpool have all been quiet in the opening stages of the window and are looking to get their business done late. The Gunners are closing in on the signing of Riccardo Calafiori from Bologna in a deal which could be announced this weekend.
