Why Moise Kean rejected Arsenal transfer approach to agree Everton switch

Image
Moise Kean turned down the chance to join Arsenal because the north London club could not promise first-team football, according to reports. The  Juventus  striker is set to join  Everton  after the two clubs agreed a fee that could rise to as much as £36million. The 19-year-old is now set to undergo a medical with the Merseyside club before completing the deal, which is expected to give the Italian champions first refusal on signing him in the future. However, the  Daily Mail  reports that  Arsenal  contacted both Juventus and Mino Raiola, the player's agent, in an attempt to hijack the move at the last minute. But the publication claims that the Italy international rejected a switch to the Emirates Stadium because the Gunners were unable to guarantee a regular place in Unai Emery's starting line-up.

The 19-year-old had a spell in the Championship at Sheffield United last season but only made seven appearances as the Blades eventually secured promotion to the Premier League. Woodburn, who has won 10 caps for Wales, was a part of  Liverpool’s  pre-season tour of the USA in July prior to his move to Oxford, featuring in the Reds’ defeats to Borussia Dortmund and Sevilla. Woodburn, who can operate as a winger and as an attacking midfielder, has featured in six Premier League games since making his Liverpool debut back in 2016. He previously broke Michael Owen’s long-standing record to become Liverpool’s youngest ever goalscorer when he came on as a substitute in a League Cup tie against Leeds in his first game for the club three years ago.

That’s the opinion of former  Manchester United  star  Wayne Rooney . Paul Pogba  has been tipped to leave United this summer, with the Frenchman catching the eye of  Real Madrid . But after splashing out nearly £275million so far this summer, Madrid have little to play with in the transfer market. That’s left Pogba in an awkward condition, after he publicly suggested that he wanted to leave Old Trafford.

PSG chiefs set up Liverpool meeting to try and seal transfer for Barcelona target Neymar

That’s according to Spanish publication  Mundo Deportivo . The report states that  PSG  owner Nasser Al-Khelaifi and  Barcelona  president Josep Bartomeu will meet at the next European Club Association meeting, taking place on August 16. PSG and Barca still have a rocky relationship stemming from the fallout from Neymar’s original transfer in 2017. Barca reportedly submitted multiple offers for the Brazilian forward earlier in the transfer window, but have been unable to come to a compromise. PSG are unwilling to let  Neymar  leave on the cheap, despite him wanting to leave. And subsequently, they are reportedly asking for a fee of £165million - which is still £34m less than the £198m they forked out for him in 2017. Barca are unwilling to pay that much, however, and instead have sent PSG a list of six players to choose two from, in order to bring the initial price down.

Lukaku has made it clear to  Manchester United  that he wants to leave after falling behind Marcus Rashford for the No.9 spot, as boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer creates his new-look side. The 26-year-old has failed to hit the same heights at United that saw him secure a move from Everton for £75m in 2017, when he scored 25 Premier League goals in his final season for the Toffees. However, as Lukaku has scored 42 goals in 96 games during in his two seasons at United, the club feel his value hasn’t decreased and are not willing to sell him for less than what they paid two years ago. Inter Milan  have shown a lot of interest in the striker but as of yet have failed to reach United’s valuation.

The England Under-16 international made his Fulham debut aged 15 years and 174 days in the League Cup in September 2018. Elliott became the youngest-ever player to make his Premier League debut when he came off the bench against Wolves at the age of 16 years and 30 days.
