Exclusive transfer news: Ronaldo update, Pino Arsenal

Chelsea hope aggressive approach can change player's mind about transfer to Stamford Bridge

Hello all and welcome to my Daily Briefing – read on for the latest transfer news, including my exclusive updates on Cristiano Ronaldo, Anthony Gordon and more!

Antony tells NOS: “Will Ten Hag call me? No idea.. he has to discuss this with my agents, I’m focused on here. What will come will come, we will see. I feel good at Ajax. I give everything for this club, every minute… so I am loving this city and this club.”

Edu was NOT travelling to Spain for talks over Yeremi Pino – his agents are based in the UK. At least three Premier League clubs have been monitoring him for some time, but he won’t be cheap.

Sergino Dest still wants to stay and fight for his place at Barcelona, but with Diogo Dalot of interest to the Catalan giants, could a swap deal with Manchester United be on the cards?

Pervin Estupinan is a target for Brighton to replace Marc Cucurella at left-back. Talks are already in progress with Villarreal.

A first bid for Anthony Gordon has been turned down by Everton. Chelsea tried an offer of £40m, but Frank Lampard is keen to keep the player.

Chelsea are now holding internal talks over another bid, this time possibly including players in the package, with Everton holding an interest in Conor Gallagher.

Chelsea are in direct contact over signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Wesley Fofana. They also want to try a new bid for Inter Milan youngster Cesare Casadei.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to Chelsea?

Conor Gallagher is of interest to Everton as Chelsea prepare to try again for Anthony Gordon. Still, Frank Lampard is also keen to keep Gordon at Goodison Park.

Juventus are ready to sell Adrien Rabiot and Arthur Melo, though there is currently no agreement with Valencia for the latter.

Lazio have still not received any official offers for star player Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, despite recent links with Premier League clubs.

Cristiano Ronaldo remains part of Erik ten Hag’s plans, but the last two months have not been easy with all the speculation surrounding the Portuguese.

All parties are now really confident about Adrien Rabiot moving from Juventus to Manchester United. The clubs have already agreed a €17-18m fee, and now a fresh round of talks over personal terms with the player’s mother Veronique will take place.

After pulling out of the Marko Arnautovic deal, Man Utd are now being offered a host of big-name strikers, such as Mauro Icardi, but click here to find out who I think would be the best option for them.
