Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is in a transfer battle with Chelsea
While focus is on Euro 2024 and Copa America, Premier League chiefs and managers are working tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure they’re raring to go ahead of the new season starting in August.
Summer transfer plans are ramping up now, with Chelsea and Tottenham among those to announce key signings yesterday in the shape of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Archie Gray.
The likes of Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City are going about their business too, and have all been linked with marquee names ahead of the new season.
Man Utd remain hot on the heels of Bologna forward Joshua Zirkzee and Everton centre-back Jarrad Branthwaite as Sir Jim Ratcliffe looks to stamp his authority early doors with his new-look INEOS structure in place.
Meanwhile, Arsenal are close to announcing the permanent signing of David Raya from Brentford in a £27million deal following his initial loan move to the club last summer from their Premier League rivals.
