We are not saying they are true – just that they're out there.

WOLVES

Left-out midfielder Karl Henry has been linked to a move to QPR as they look to bounce back to the Premier League. The 30-year-old has three years left on his contract at Molineux.

WEST BROM

Striker Peter Odemwingie is edging closer to leaving the Hawthorns as he was left out of the squad for the pre season tour of Austria. Cardiff are now thought to have joined the race to sign him alongside the other two promoted clubs, Hull and Crystal Palace.

Romelu Lukaku is said to not be keen on another loan move as he looks to earn a first-team place at Stamford Bridge.

West Ham are set to make a £3 million move for Graham Dorrans. Cardiff and Norwich are also supposed to be interested in the 26-year-old, who joined the Hawthorns in 2008 for £100,000.

ASTON VILLA

Christian Benteke is urging for a move to Tottenham as he does not want to return to pre-season training. However, Spurs bid is expected to be around £5 million below Villa's preferred price. Meanwhile, Chelsea star Eden Hazard has backed his Belgian teammate to join a "big club."

Richard Dunne has joined QPR on a free transfer after his contract at Villa Park expired. The 33-year-old has signed a one year deal.

WALSALL

The Saddlers have signed 20-year-old Chelsea striker Milan Lalkovic on a six-month loan deal. He is a member of the Slovakian U21 team and spent last year out on loan abroad.
