Today’s biggest transfer stories

Barcelona are nearing a deal to sign Karim Adeyemi from Borussia Dortmund. The 24-year-old only has a year left on his contract at the Bundesliga side and it’s expected that Barca will agree a fee with Dortmund – you can read more on that deal here.

Marcus Rashford could be reintegrated to the Manchester United squad but the preference for all parties is to find a permanent departure. Barcelona decided against taking up a buy-option after his loan deal and he’s scheduled to return to pre-season with United, as things stand.

Arsenal and Tottenham are reportedly amongst five Premier League clubs eyeing a move for Antonio Nusa. The RB Leipzig winger was overshadowed domestically by Yan Diomande but he’s enjoyed an impressive World Cup with Norway.
