Hearts, Corum and Alexandros Kyziridis
Monday

Hearts winger Alexandros Kyziridis has completed his move to Turkish club Corum after the Scottish side accepted a bid for the 25-year-old. The transfer converts a player signed on a free into a reported seven-figure return.

Head coach Wouter Vrancken had already confirmed Hearts accepted an offer and were prepared for Kyziridis to leave. The completed transfer fits the club’s trading model, with several attacking replacements already available inside the current squad.

Sevilla, Al-Ittihad and George Ilenikhena
Monday

Sevilla are working to sign 19-year-old striker George Ilenikhena on loan from Al-Ittihad as they seek another forward before the Spanish season begins. The Nigerian-born attacker wants a return to Europe after a brief spell in Saudi Arabia.

Sevilla have identified Ilenikhena as their preferred attacking reinforcement while Schalke and West Ham also show interest. The proposed temporary move would give the teenager European minutes while allowing Al-Ittihad to retain control of his longer-term future.

Endrick and Real Madrid
Monday

Endrick has decided to remain at Real Madrid for the coming season despite loan and transfer interest from several European clubs. The Brazil forward reached the decision together with club officials and head coach Jose Mourinho after summer discussions.

Aston Villa and other suitors had explored opportunities to give Endrick more regular minutes. Mourinho instead plans to use him more frequently on the right side of attack, giving the 20-year-old a clearer pathway to compete for playing time.

Al-Ahli and Franck Kessie
Monday

Al-Ahli have submitted an official offer to re-sign Ivory Coast midfielder Franck Kessie for one season. The proposed contract is worth €10m annually and includes a clause giving the Saudi club priority to extend the agreement for another year.

Kessie is available as a free agent, allowing Al-Ahli to negotiate directly without paying a transfer fee. His previous spell in Jeddah reduces adaptation risk, while the club wants an experienced, physical midfielder before the new season begins.

West Ham, Tottenham Hotspur and Manor Solomon
Monday

West Ham have officially signed Israel winger Manor Solomon from Tottenham on a three-year contract for about £5m. The 27-year-old becomes the relegated club’s third permanent summer arrival and will wear the number 10 shirt.

The completion follows an earlier agreement in principle between the clubs. Solomon arrives after loan spells with Fiorentina, Leeds and Villarreal, and says his immediate objective is helping West Ham win promotion back to the Premier League.

NEC Nijmegen, Porto and Gabriel Bras
Monday

NEC are closing in on Portugal youth defender Gabriel Bras on loan from Porto, with reports saying the agreement also includes an option to buy. The 22-year-old is expected to become the defensive reinforcement requested by coach Dick Schreuder.

Porto coach Francesco Farioli gave the move his approval after using Bras during preseason but deciding not to keep him permanently in the first-team squad. NEC need additional defenders after being forced to improvise during their opening league match.

Al-Ittihad, Neom and Faisal Al-Ghamdi
Monday

Al-Ittihad have agreed to loan Saudi midfielder Faisal Al-Ghamdi to newly promoted Neom for one season. The arrangement does not include a purchase option, and both clubs will share responsibility for the 24-year-old’s wages during the spell.

Neom formally requested Al-Ghamdi on 7 August and Al-Ittihad approved the move to give him regular playing time. The wage-sharing structure shows Al-Ittihad’s willingness to facilitate an exit while keeping the player’s long-term registration rights.
