Paris Saint-Germain are seeking to extend Bradley Barcola's contract with the club until 2030 and hope to reach an agreement in the coming months.

Three favourites to sign Dele on free transfer revealed

Dele Alli could be heading back to British football following his release by Como, with three teams said to have shown interest, according to The Daily Mail.

The Mail claims: “Birmingham City, Wrexham, and West Brom have emerged as the favourites in the beauty contest to sign Alli. The first two offer the tantalising appeal of glitz and glamour. Birmingham, partly fuelled by the cash and interference of NFL legend Tom Brady, have made a strong start to life in the Championship. Wrexham, their fellow promotees from League One, have the Hollywood draw of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney - did anybody mention? - and splashed £33 million on medium-to-big-name Championship signings this summer."

Early Man Utd return for Rashford rubbished

Rumours of Barcelona terminating Marcus Rashford’s loan deal and sending him back to Manchester United have been branded "complete bullsh*t".

Fabrizio Romano has told his YouTube channel: “I don’t know where this story is coming from, to be honest I think it’s really a shame to see these kind of rumours. There’s absolutely zero into it. Barcelona are very happy with Rashford, very happy with the deal they did. It’s a loan with a buy option so for Barca even financially it’s not a big problem. They’re very happy with the attitude of Marcus Rashford. They are waiting obviously for Marcus to adapt, new football, new league, new city, new team-mates, after spending a lot of time always in the same country. So for Rashford it’s a big opportunity, he knows that. But they are completely aligned. They are starting this new chapter with optimism and confidence. So at the moment these reports of Barcelona terminating the loan deal early for Rashford is complete bullsh*t. There’s nothing at all in it."

Forgotten England star Oxlade-Chamberlain linked with Birmingham

Marcus Rashford’s Barcelona future has been thrown into doubt by reports suggesting the club want to cut short his loan and send him back to Manchester United – but respected journalist Guillem Balague has now dismissed those claims. The England forward, who moved to Barca after falling out of favour at Old Trafford, has made a slow start to life in Spain amid strong competition for places in Hansi Flick's attack.

Rashford has managed three La Liga appearances so far, but only one start, against Levante, where he was substituted at half-time. Reports from El Nacional have claimed Barca chiefs see him as “shy, imprecise and lost” and have been weighing up an early termination of his loan. Such a move would reportedly cost Barcelona around £4 million; however, Balague has now rubbished the reports.

Oxlade-Chamberlain, who has seven goals in 35 England caps, would prove quite the coup for the high-spending Blues. According to Football Insider, both Birmingham and Leeds could make a move for the out-of-contract player.
