Lazio Eye Broja Loan
Serie A side Lazio are interested in taking Burnley striker Armando Broja on loan with an option to buy, in a package that would be worth a reported โฌ10-12m if made permanent. Broja, a Chelsea academy product, wants to leave Burnley following their relegation. Discussions remained at an early stage as of late July 2026, with no deal agreed.
Welbeck Completes Chelsea Move
Chelsea completed the signing of forward Danny Welbeck from Brighton on 3 August 2026, for an undisclosed fee.
Rodri: Barcelona Talks Continue
Rodri's move away from Manchester City is being negotiated with Barcelona, not Real Madrid as earlier reports suggested. Barcelona have made a second offer worth a reported โฌ65m plus โฌ5m in add-ons, an increase on their opening bid, but Manchester City are said to want closer to โฌ80m. Rodri, who enters the final year of his contract, is reported to want to return to Spain and has made Barcelona his priority. As of this update, no fee has been agreed.
