On July 1st, the 2017 summer transfer window officially opened.
The most visited football news portal in the country, "EuroFootball.com", traditionally will present the most important news related to player transfers and deals every day until the end of the transfer window.
If "Southampton" would finally agree to listen to offers for central defender Virgil van Dijk, then "Liverpool" would quickly try to acquire him. This is no longer a secret, but now "Liverpool Echo" reports that the "Reds" are willing to pay a record amount for the club.
However, "Liverpool" is forced to finally give up the fight for "RB Leipzig" midfielder Naby Keita and will have to wait until next summer when the buyout clause of 48 million pounds in his contract comes into effect ("Daily Mirror").
Turin's "Juventus" will no longer try to acquire Nemanja Matic, which means that London's "Chelsea" defensive midfielder has a clear path to "Manchester United". The "Aristocrats" are demanding 40 million pounds for the Serbian ("Corriere dello Sport").
"Swansea" has agreed with "Manchester City" on the return of striker Wilfried Bony, but problems arise due to his weekly wage of 130 thousand pounds ("Wales Online").
"Man United" coach Jose Mourinho wants to keep winger Ashley Young in the team and reject all offers for him. The 32-year-old Englishman is currently being eyed by "Stoke City" ("The Sun").
Despite the fact that Neymar's move to "Paris Saint-Germain" was essentially agreed upon, Brazilian was convinced to stay in "Barcelona" by his attacking teammates Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez. The transfer would have been record-breaking and cost up to 222 million euros, but Gerard Pique claimed that the striker is staying ("Sport").
Another player who could leave "Barcelona" is right-back Sergi Roberto, for whom the club is willing to pay the 40 million euro release clause. So far, the club has failed to attract either Danilo or Alex Sandro ("Sport").
According to "Diario Gol", after selling Alvaro Morata, Madrid's "Real" is ready to bid farewell to Karim Benzema as well. Club president Florentino Perez has been significantly benefiting from the Frenchman since 2009 and will try to attract "Monaco" talent Kylian Mbappe.
"Swansea City" rejected a 45 million pound offer from Liverpool's "Everton" for attacking midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson and demands 5 million more ("Sky Sports").
Bayer Leverkusen's forward Javier Hernandez has already underwent a medical examination at London's "West Ham" club.
Lucas Perez did not hide his desire to leave London's "Arsenal" earlier, and the allocation of the number 9 to newcomer Alexandre Lacazette was the final straw for him. Last season, it was the Spaniard who wore that number ("La Voz de Galicia").
