Transfer news live: Man Utd submit big Sesko bid, Isak’s agent speaks out, Arsenal battle Liverpool – UK Times

Michail Antonio will not be offered a new West Ham contract, reportsThe Athletic.

The 35-year-old was involved in a car crash in December and had to undergo surgery, and has not played since.

The Hammers previously said they would delay their decision on offering Antonio a new deal due to the “unique” circumstances.

“I’m very excited, I’m so happy to be here,” Hato, who can operate in central defence or at left-back, told the Premier League club’s website.

“I thought a lot about my future and wanted to take the next step in my career. Chelsea is the best place for me to do that so I’m very happy.”

Chelsea have completed the signing of Netherlands defender Jorrel Hato from Ajax in a deal worth a reported £37m.

The 19-year-old, who has been capped six times by his country, has signed a seven-year contract at Stamford Bridge.

He becomes the Blues’ eighth signing of the summer transfer window.

Manchester United winger Antony is still determined to return to Real Betis during this window, reports Sky.

Betis are struggling to gather the funds to make a permanent deal this summer, and Antony has attracted interest from Saudi clubs, though the Brazilian has so far refused their advances.

However, “there is a willingness from all parties to strike a deal” between Utd and the Spanish club.

United are said to value the winger at around £30m, and prefer a sale over a loan.

Spurs are still keen on Randal Kolo Muani, who will be allowed to leave PSG this summer.

It is unknown how much the striker will be sold for, though he spent the second half of last season on loan at Juventus.

Ademola Lookman has accused Atalanta of “breaking promises” made to him after the club rejected a bid from Inter Milan.

“I feel I have no choice but to speak out for what I believe is right and I feel that enough is enough,” Lookman wrote on social media.

“I can confirm I have now handed in a formal transfer request.”

Lookman said Atalanta were “blocking the opportunity” of him leaving the club “for reasons I do not understand”.

Atalanta rejected a bid worth around €40m last week.

Everton boss David Moyes told the media that there should be deals in the near future for the club.

Moyes had previously lamented the club’s inability to do deals for top players, buthe said: “We have to make several additions, we know that, even for the numbers.

“We have people in the squad where we’d maybe like to put them out on loan or do other things with them but I’ve been saying it from near enough the minute we finished against Newcastle that we have to get it done and I feel like we should be further down.

“But in the main, it looks as if we’re getting closer to things and hopefully a few things will come to fruition this week.

“If we didn’t, I’d have to be confident I can make something with what we’ve got and find a way around it and get results.

“It’s not that easy in the Premier League and you can see we need a lot. We’ve got a lot of things to do to get better.”

Dele Alli has been told by Como that he is not in manager Cesc Fabregas’s plans for the upcoming season, with the former England international now looking for a new club.

Reports from Italy suggested that the 29-year-old may be considering retirement, though The Times reports that that suggestion is wide of the mark.

Manchester United could be open to selling Rasmus Hojlund for as little as £30m this summer, according to reports.

RB Leipzig are said to be interested in the Dane as a potential replacement for the outgoing Benjamin Sesko, which could be interesting at United are interested in the Slovenian.

However, Hojlund is determined to fight for his place, telling the media after Manchester United’s 4-1 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League Summer series that his “plan is very clear and that is for me to stay and fight for my spot, whatever happens.”

It ended a 17-year trophy drought for the club.
