Well we've eventually arrived at it.

Chelsea seem to have made some decent moves already. apparently Man City have Got hold of Nathan Aké at what sounds like an excellent price. I'd have liked Leicester to have bought him.

Word is Aubameyang is signing a 3 year contract extension worth 250k a week.
Also, Arsenal seem to be closing in on deals with Willian and Malang Sarr (CB - Nice), both free transfers.

Would be huge.

Lots of talk in the papers about big player signings for Arsenal, Manchester and Chelsea. I'll take them with a pinch of salt until they happen. If they signed all the players they are supposed to they'd have squads of 300 players each.

Now that A Sanchez could removed from their payroll, it is easier for Manchester United to finalize a move of J Sancho.

Welcome to Willian!
I actually like him.

He's a very good player. At 220k per week plus signing on fee you need to hope he stays a very good player.

Most PL teams just can't compete with wages like that. in fact there are very few players outside the "big 6" on more than 100k a week. What is sad is that arsenal laid off workers who weren't even earning 22k a year.

He should stay at Dortmund. More talented roster and better coach.
Only thing in favour of United is the money.

Same opinion.
And you have to know that in year, there could be another situation for him. Maybe there are more/other suitors, eg. Real Madrid.

He should transfer but not to Manu. No matter what people say they are in a mess.

Ideally a team of a slightly lower status where he can star. Sadly it's all about the money so I'll guess he leaves and takes the wages.

A little list of rumours:

Callejon (Napoli) in talks to join Villareal on a free transfer.
Reina (AC Milan) is joining Lazio.
Magalhaes (Lille) is going to Arsenal on a 30M transfer (add ons included)
Bakayoko (Chelsea) is probably staying at AC Milan on another loan, but this time with an option to buy.
Chillwell is close to singing for Chelsea for a 65M fee, Leicester eye Tagiliafico (Ajax) as a replacement.
Chelsea is holding talks to sign Thiago Silva (PSG) to bring some experience to their defense.
If Conte (Inter) gets the sack, Allegri will be his replacement.
Juventus is terminating the contracts of Higuain and Khedira (both 1 year left).
Cavani has been offered a 10m/season deal at Benfica.
Reinier (Real Madrid) is joining Dortmund on loan.

Rumors of Weston McKennie becoming the first American to play for Juventus

If Juve is going to buy anyone from that mediocre Schalke roster it should be Serdar or Harit. These guys can actually play. And even those guys are not Juve level.

McKennie will ride the Juve bench for the season.
Unless you see marketing value in adding an American to the roster...I dont see the point of going after him.

I guess McKennie would be okay for a team in the 3-6 range, not someone who wants to become champion every year.

Chilwell to Chelsea is apparently finalised. Wondering who we are going to see incoming once that's through.
