We have scoured the back pages and the internet to bring you the latest transfer gossip.

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

WOLVES

Wolves may try again to lure Jonny Williams to Molineux on loan, after the midfielder fell further down the pecking order at Crystal Palace.

The Wales international turned down boss Kenny Jackett in favour of a temporary switch to Mick McCarthy's Ipswich Town last season.

He's now available again, with the Premier League side's big-money capture of Yohan Cabaye making first-team football even more improbable.

The 21-year-old could drop back into the Championship with Wolves, Fulham and Bristol City all keen on offering him an escape route.

WEST BROM

West Brom have been linked with a sensational move to bring former loanee Morgan Amalfitano back to the club for a second season-long spell.

Amalfitano was originally a hit at the Hawthorns, after he was borrowed from French club Marseille for the 2013-14 Premier League campaign.

Patchy form in the second half of the season saw him return to his parent club under somewhat of a cloud, with Albion going cool on a return.

He has since returned to England to join West Ham permanently, but has fall out with new boss Slaven Bilic and been banished to the reserves.

The 30-year-old French winger is likely to be farmed out as soon as possible with Albion, Villa and St Etienne in his homeland possible suitors.

ASTON VILLA

Reports in Italy suggest that Lazio midfielder Keita Balde Diao could be the next arrival at Aston Villa during the summer transfer window.

The Spanish-born Senegalese forward, just 20-years-old, was the subject of a £16million bid from Premier League rivals Liverpool last year.

The forward is highly-rated at his club, but is unhappy at being left out of the team for the most of last season in favour of Felipe Anderson.

Villa are prepared to offer £11m but there may be more interest from the Reds, while Inter Milan and Genoa want to keep him in Serie A.

WALSALL

All quiet at the Banks's Stadium today.
