Last-Minute PL Transfers: Busy Hours Ahead
The Premier League transfer window is closing fast! It ends on Tuesday at 10 AM AEDT. Clubs are rushing to wrap up signings, and lots of deals are still in play. The last few hours should be exciting with potential last-minute transfers. Let’s check out some moves that could happen soon.
ICYMT: Amorim Highlights United’s Achilles’ Heel
Tottenham’s Late Push for Help
Tottenham Hotspur is backing manager Ange Postecoglou. But he needs more players to help his team, which has been hit by injuries. After a 2-0 win over Brentford, he made it clear that he needs support. The club recently borrowed Kevin Danso from Lens, which includes an option to buy. But Tottenham is also looking for a striker and is linked to Eli Junior Kroupi from Lorient and Liam Delap from Ipswich. They may also want another defender, with Axel Disasi from Chelsea on their radar, though he seems to prefer Aston Villa.
Mathys Tel’s Next Move: Spurs Miss Out
Earlier, Tottenham showed interest in Bayern Munich’s Mathys Tel. But he seems to have said no to joining them. The 19-year-old is now on the radar of Arsenal and Manchester United. Arsenal wants him more since Ollie Watkins is hurt. Tel is ready to move since he’s not getting much playtime at Bayern. Now, both Premier League teams are in a race for him.
Arsenal on the Hunt for a Striker
Mikel Arteta, Arsenal’s boss, is looking for a new striker because Gabriel Jesus is hurt for a while. They’re interested in Ollie Watkins from Aston Villa, but he’s unlikely to leave since Villa just signed Jhon Duran. Arsenal is also looking at Alexander Isak from Newcastle and Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig, but those deals could be tough to finalize.
Chelsea Looking at Garnacho
Chelsea’s transfer window has been pretty quiet, but they might still go for Alejandro Garnacho from Manchester United. Napoli is also interested in him, but it’s less likely he’ll leave United now that he started in their recent 2-0 loss to Crystal Palace.
Manchester United Seeking More Offense
If United misses out on Mathys Tel, they have other plans. They might loan in Chelsea’s Christopher Nkunku or Ipswich’s Liam Delap. They want to boost their attack before the window shuts.
Aston Villa Busy in the Market
Aston Villa is quite active as the deadline approaches. They’ve loaned Marcus Rashford and are eyeing two more big names. Marco Asensio from PSG is set for a loan move to Villa Park. They’re also linked to Joao Felix from Chelsea, who AC Milan wants too.
West Ham Close to a Striker
West Ham United is looking to sign Evan Ferguson from Brighton on loan before the deadline. The Irish forward has struggled for playing time this season, and West Ham wants to strengthen their attack with injuries to Jarrod Bowen, Niclas Fullkrug, and Michail Antonio.
Ben Chilwell to Leave Chelsea
Ben Chilwell, a Chelsea left-back, has played just once this season and is expected to leave today. Crystal Palace is likely to be his new home as they seek to fill a gap in their squad.
With so many moves still possible, the last hours of the Premier League transfer window will surely be exciting!
