The 25-year-old Sweden international headed back to Tyneside over the weekend after spending time working on his fitness at former club Real Sociedad as Premier League champions Liverpool formalised their interest in him with a £110m bid, which was swiftly rejected by the Magpies.

He reported to the club’s training headquarters on Monday morning as the rest of the squad returned from their pre-season trip to Singapore and South Korea.

Neither club has yet bid for the £85m forward but Liverpool would be willing to let him go for the right price after signing Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt for an initial £69m.

This one is moving quickly.

Everton have agreed a deal with Chelsea to sign midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, according to Sky.

The deal is worth £25m plus add-ons, which could increase it to around £29m.

The Athletic also reports this morning that Nicolas Jackson is likely to leave Chelsea this summer.

He has suitors across the Premier League and abroad, with Manchester United and Newcastle both keeping tabs on Jackson’s situation while the Sesko saga continues.

Jackson is set lose his place in the Chelsea team to Liam Delap this season.

We start with the news that Newcastle have submitted a second bid for Benjamin Sesko.

The offer is worth €80m plus €10m add-ons, according to The Athletic, as Newcastle look to get the deal done with RB Leipzig and move on to talks with the player.

Manchester United, however, are still hovering, hoping that Sesko will give them the green light to match Newcastle’s offer and woo him away.

One of the transfer sagas of the summer is set to rumble on. We’ll see today if we hear more on Leipzig’s response to the bid for the 22-year-old.

Good morning and welcome along as we cover the latest transfer news, rumours and done deals.
