30 August 2026

Chelsea have reached an agreement with Monaco to sign Senegal midfielder Lamine Camara for a package expected to reach €45 million including bonuses. The transfer is close to completion, with only details such as the payment schedule still unresolved.

Camara is being lined up as Chelsea prepare for Enzo Fernandez’s possible move to Manchester City. The 22-year-old made 75 Monaco appearances across two seasons, while Chelsea moved ahead of rival interest to secure their preferred midfield replacement.

30 August 2026

FC Twente defender Mees Hilgers is close to joining Heerenveen after all parties agreed a transfer. The Indonesia international is expected to sign until 2029, with only a medical remaining as he continues his recovery from a cruciate ligament injury.

Hilgers had been in a prolonged dispute with Twente after contract-extension talks failed and an administrative clause extended his deal by another year. A previous move to France collapsed, leaving Heerenveen to provide an Eredivisie route out.

Omari Hutchinson is closing in on a season-long loan from Nottingham Forest to AC Milan after arriving in Italy for a medical. The proposed deal includes a €4 million loan fee and a non-mandatory €40 million purchase option.

The 22-year-old has struggled for a consistent Forest role despite joining for a club-record £37.5 million last year. Milan moved for the winger as Ruben Amorim seeks another attacker, with medical examinations scheduled at La Madonnina clinic.

30 August 2026

Atletico Madrid have submitted an official opening bid to Juventus for Canada striker Jonathan David. The proposal is for an initial loan with an option to buy, and the 26-year-old has opened the door to moving to the Spanish capital.

Juventus are willing to discuss David’s departure but want to secure a replacement before approving the move. Atletico are seeking additional centre-forward depth as Julian Alvarez’s future remains uncertain, with talks continuing over the financial terms of the purchase option.

Jean-Matteo Bahoya, Hull City and Eintracht Frankfurt
30 August 2026

Hull City’s agreed move for Eintracht Frankfurt winger Jean-Matteo Bahoya has collapsed after the player decided against joining. Hull had secured permission for the France Under-21 international to undergo a medical after reaching an agreement with the Bundesliga club.

Bahoya would have become Hull’s 13th summer signing and brought versatility across several attacking positions. The reversal is a hard update from the earlier agreement, leaving the promoted Premier League club without the winger before the transfer deadline.
