Leeds reach agreement to sign former Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Dominic Calvert Lewin 1 Leeds have reached an agreement to sign free agent Dominic Calvert-Lewin, the PA news agency understands. The 28-year-old striker, who left Everton after nine years when his contract expired this summer, is set to undergo a medical at the Yorkshire club's Thorp Arch training ground. Calvert-Lewin managed just three goals in 26 appearances last season, having missed three months from the end of January due to injury.

Everton given boost in pursuit of Jack Grealish

Jack Grealish Everton have been given a boost in their pursuit of Jack Grealish as the Manchester City outcast appears not to be part of Pep Guardiola's plans this season. Daily Mail Sport previously reported that Fenerbahce were knocked back with an ambitious move for the England international. In June, we revealed how the Merseyside club were monitoring the situation with the former Aston Villa man, who would become a marquee signing as they mark their move to a new stadium. Now, an approach has been made over the possibility of a season-long loan switch for Grealish, who is thought to be on around £300,000-a-week at City. Those with knowledge of the season believe a move may not materialise until late in the window, given the belief that a number of clubs who are interested are yet t...

(Photo by Lee Parker - CameraSport via Getty Images) Newcastle are set to enter the race to sign Manchester City’s forgotten man Jack Grealish. Grealish has not had the best of times at City - he has bagged trophies but last season only made seven league starts and his lack of game time has also seen him fall out of favour with England. He was the most expensive English player ever when he signed for City for £100m in 2021 from Aston Villa, where he spent two decades, and while he has undeniable talent, he has in recent season struggled to fit into Pep...

Arsenal wants to sell Eddie Nketiah and has been in talks with Olympique Marseille regarding the striker’s transfer.
