The extracts on this page are taken from various newspapers and media outlets. They do not reflect the views of the Express and Star.
Wolves
Reported Wolves target Badou Ndiaye is wanted by Everton and Galatasaray.
The Stoke midfielder is being linked away from the Bet365 Stadium following the club's relegation to the Championship, with some big sides sniffing.
Reports suggest that Wolves are keen, but also that Everton are eyeing a move too.
Middlesbrough are reportedly keen on a move for former Wolves loanee Alfred N'Diaye.
The midfielder won't be heading to Molineux following his loan spell last season, and is back with Villareal - who face Nuno's side this weekend in pre-season.
It's thought that Tony Pulis could bring him to the north east in a deal worth approximately £8m.
West Brom
QPR have issued a hands-off warning on reported Albion target Luke Freeman.
The 26-year-old was a strong performer for the London side last season, netting five times and also racking up 12 assists.
However, with Boro and Sheffield United also thought to be interested, QPR do not want to see him depart.
Albion are holding out for £17m if they are to sell Belgium winger Nacer Chadli this summer.
Besiktas have been linked with a move for the 28-year-old, and were thought to be eyeing a loan move.
However, West Brom seem to prefer the idea of a full sale - and want top dollar after a strong World Cup from the forward.
Aston Villa
Reports on the continent claim that Aston Villa have lodged a bid for Barcelona defender Yerry Mina, a target for Premier League sides Wolves and Everton.
The Colombian international is set to leave Barcelona this summer, and is reportedly valued at more than £30m.
However, Villa's offer is reportedly around just £9m with add-ons.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are reportedly considering a bid to hijack Spurs' move for Jack Grealish.
The Villa midfielder has been linked with a move all summer following a summer of crisis at Villa Park, which has now eased.
However, Chelsea could now start a bidding war with Tottenham to bring the 22-year-old into the top flight.
Walsall
No fresh Walsall rumours today.
