Goal takes a look at the biggest transfer stories from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A and beyond ahead of the opening of the summer window
BARCA DITCH BELLERIN BID



Barcelona have ditched plans to sign Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin during the summer transfer window, according to Sport .

Bellerin had previously been Barca’s leading target to fill the right-back role next season, but Arsenal were unwilling to sell the Spaniard.

And, with new coach Ernesto Valverde reportedly having doubts over Bellerin’s physical and technical capabilities, Barca have decided against pursuing a €40 million deal.

DIER OPEN TO MAN UTD MOVE



Tottenham midfielder Eric Dier is open to joining Manchester United, who would double the England international’s current £70,000 a week wages, according to The Guardian .

United have already seen one offer for Dier rejected, but are preparing to go back in with a second bid of £50 million as Jose Mourinho seeks a new defensive midfielder.

However, Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is adamant that Dier is not for sale and has warned United against continuing their pursuit of the 23-year-old.

WBA TARGET SMALLING & JONES



West Brom are targeting moves for Manchester United defenders Chris Smalling and Phil Jones, according to the  Daily Mirror .

Baggies boss Tony Pulis is keen to bolster his backline this summer and, following the arrival of Victor Lindelof at Old Trafford, the England internationals have fallen down the pecking order.

WENGER MET WITH MBAPPE



Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger met with French prodigy Kylian Mbappe on June 14 in Paris, according to France Football.

The French manager tried to convince the Monaco teenager that London would be the best home for him in a meeting that lasted more than three hours, appealing to the 18-year-old to follow in the footsteps of French legend Thierry Henry.

JANUZAJ SET FOR SOCIEDAD



Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj is set to join Real Sociedad after a fee of around £9.8 million was agreed, reports the Daily Telegraph .

Januzaj spent last season on loan at Sunderland and is due to have a medical with Sociedad on Wednesday after being told he has no future at Old Trafford by Jose Mourinho.

ZOUMA TO GO OUT ON LOAN



Chelsea defender Kurt Zouma is set for talks with Stoke and West Brom about a potential loan move, according to Sky Sports.

After Zouma missed nearly a year with a knee injury suffered in February 2016, Chelsea boss Antonio Conte wants the 22-year-old to get more playing time on loan in 2017-18.

MAN UTD STILL SHORT ON PERISIC



Manchester United remain £9 million short of Inter's valuation of Ivan Perisic, according to The Telegraph .

The Red Devils have made the Croatian winger a top target and Ed Woodward has not joined the club in America as he seeks to tie up a deal which could cost close to £50m.

VITOLO HAS CHELSEA OFFER



Chelsea are looking to take advantage of Atletico Madrid's transfer ban by putting an offer to Sevilla winger Vitolo, Cadena Cope   claims.

The Spain international was expected to head to the Spanish capital this summer, but no deal has been done and Antonio Conte is ready to pounce.

LAZIO LOOK AT LUCAS



Lazio are keen to replace Milan-bound Lucas Biglia with Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva, says Calciomercato .

The Brazilian has slipped down the pecking order at Anfield and has just 12 months remaining on his contract with the Reds.

HAMMERS FEAR MISSING OUT ON GABIGOL



West Ham fear Premier League red tape will prevent them from completing a move for Inter forward Gabriel Barbosa, reports the Daily Mirror .

Gabigol is available on loan but a lack of game time for club and country could see the Brazilian denied a work permit to play in England.

IBRA TO GET NEW MAN UTD DEAL



Manchester United will hand Zlatan Ibrahimovic a short-term contract in October after being recovered.

LUKAKU TO MAN UTD: SO MOURINHO DOES CARE ABOUT YOUNGSTERS AFTER ALL Kris Voakes 08:48 The United manager has been castigated for his short-termism in the past but his record shows he does generally buy young “I knew that was coming… Do you know how many young players I promote to the first team from academies? Forty-nine! If any one of you is interested I can give you [a list].” Jose Mourinho came armed with notes when he first arrived at Old Trafford as Manchester United so clear was he that people were going to ask about his general refusal to give youngsters a chance.
