\"Transfer<\/p>\n

\n \u00a9IMAGO\n <\/p>\n

The summer transfer window has officially opened and while the main attention is on the World Cup, clubs are working away on major deals. For most clubs, planning will already be complete and they will have identified which players they want to sign, and which players they want to sell.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals this summer. The rumour mill is still gathering pace and we’ve collated some of the biggest current transfer stories – you can access the full rumour mill below.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\nToday’s biggest transfer stories<\/p>\n

Erling Haaland<\/a> remains Real Madrid’s<\/a> dream signing and the Spanish giants could make their move, if Vinicius Jr departs this summer. The 25-year-old is contracted until Manchester City until 2033, so it remains highly unlikely that he will depart England. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Barcelona<\/a> hold an interest in Manchester United<\/a> striker Benjamin Sesko<\/a>. After a slow start to life at Old Trafford, Sesko enjoyed an excellent second half of the campaign and United won’t entertain any offers, despite Barca’s interest. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Tottenham Hotspur<\/a> are weighing up a move for Marcus Rashford<\/a>. Barcelona decided against activating a buy-option in their loan deal for the England international and he’s still expected to depart United this summer. <\/p>\n
