Arsenal agreed a ยฃ75m fee with Newcastle for captain Bruno Guimaraes, with the deal reached on 5 August 2026 and completed by 9 August. The Brazilian signed a four-year contract with a club option for a further year. Earlier reports had suggested the move was stalling, with Newcastle standing firm on their valuation, but the deal ultimately went through.
Ndiaye โ Al-Hilal (Not Agreed)
Everton are reportedly willing to sell forward Iliman Ndiaye to Saudi club Al-Hilal if their ยฃ75m asking price is met, though Al-Hilal have registered interest without yet submitting a concrete offer. Manchester United and Manchester City have also been credited with interest, but neither is believed willing to pay Everton's valuation. As of this update, no transfer has been agreed.
Rushworth โ Coventry City (Completed)
Coventry City agreed a club-record deal for Brighton goalkeeper Carl Rushworth, reported at an initial ยฃ22.5m rising to around ยฃ30m with add-ons, making the move permanent after a loan spell in which he kept 17 clean sheets in 46 Championship appearances as Coventry won promotion. Brighton retained both a sell-on clause and a buy-back option.
