Chelsea have made a last-minute attempt to sign Ivan Toney and are considering a potential swap deal involving Raheem Sterling for Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho.

Chelsea have made a late move to sign Brentford striker Ivan Toney, who has already agreed personal terms with Al Ahli. While a deal with the Saudi Pro League side has not been finalised, Chelsea’s interest has opened the door for a potential transfer. Brentford are demanding £50 million for the 28-year-old England international, who has one year left on his contract. Chelsea are likely to offer less than the asking price and will also expect Toney to fit into their wage structure. This late interest from Chelsea is good news for Brentford, who hope to receive a higher offer.

Manchester United and Chelsea are reportedly considering a complex deal to swap Raheem Sterling and Jadon Sancho. Juventus is also a potential destination for Sancho, who has yet to feature in the league for United this season. Talks are ongoing between Manchester United, Juventus, and Chelsea regarding a deal for the 24-year-old winger. For Chelsea to proceed with the switch, it may require a player to go the opposite way, with Sterling being viewed as the most feasible candidate. However, several factors need to be resolved before this possibility can materialise.

Arsenal may still sign another forward, according to The Sun. After securing the signing of Mikel Merino, the club may need to make sales to raise funds. Eddie Nketiah is close to a move to Crystal Palace, which could open the door for Arsenal to pursue a winger. Manager Mikel Arteta has admitted that the club is lacking in attacking areas and is keen to complete several deals before focusing on recruiting a versatile winger. While links to Athletic Bilbao’s Nico Williams have been reported, a move for him is unlikely due to financial constraints.

German champions Bayer Leverkusen have made a loan offer for Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton. The 21-year-old has attracted interest from other clubs, including Atalanta and RB Leipzig. Morton, who made his senior debut for Liverpool almost three years ago, has spent the last two seasons on loan with Championship sides Blackburn Rovers and Hull City. Liverpool must now decide whether to allow Morton to leave on a temporary basis or consider a permanent sale. Xabi Alonso, a former Liverpool midfielder, is interested in securing Morton’s services on a season-long loan.
