The summer transfer window is now in its final month and many sides are still on the hunt for new signings. The biggest clubs in European football and clubs across the continent are still midway through their plans for next season. Teams are working tirelessly behind the scenes on identifying targets and figuring out their budgets.
Managers will be constantly assessing their squads with sporting directors and recruitment staff scanning the market for potential deals. A plethora of players will become available in the summer where clubs famously have more money to spend and aren't as restricted by financial fair play rules. The rumour mill is beginning to pick up pace and we've collated some of the biggest current transfer stories.
Today's biggest transfer stories
Real Madrid are reportedly monitoring A dam Wharton ahead of a potential future move. The Spanish giants watched the English midfielder regularly last season, according to the Daily Mail. Wharton is currently valued at €45m by Transfermarkt but any interest from Madrid isn't expected to result in a bid until next summer.
Newcastle United have agreed a €42m fee with Aston Villa for Jacob Ramsey. It's been a frustrating transfer window so far for Eddie Howe's men but Ramsey would represent an impressive signing. Personal terms are not expected to be an issue with his desire to play Champions League.
Roma are the latest club to express an interest in Jadon Sancho. The Manchester United winger has no future at Old Trafford but he's struggled to secure a move away so far this summer. Sancho has been linked with various Serie A clubs, including Juventus and Inter Milan, but Roma has emerged as a potential destination.
