Arsenal
Arsenal are in talks with stiker Olivier Giroud to extend his current contract with the London club.

Chelsea players Thibaut Courtois and Romelu Lukaku have not been given squad numbers yet and the club are refusing to print shirts with their names according to the Daily Star.

Manchester City

Manchester United
Rumours of a Thomas Vermaelen to Manchester United deal have intensified with new Arsenal signing Calum Chambers pictured wearing his No 5 in training according to the Daily Express.

Manchester United have lost experienced trio Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra this summer, and new manager Louis van Gaal has confirmed he is looking at defenders.

Manchester United new signing Luke Shaw has admitted criticism of his fitness level by new manager Louis Van Gaal.

Shaw said:
'It's something I totally agree with. Playing in this formation you really have to be fit. I am fit but not at his high demands. I know I have got to get fitter to get up and down.

'That's something I am going to work on.'
Real Madrid
Radamel Falcao has fueled rumours linking him with a move from Monaco to Real Madrid by following three Madrid players on instagram on the same day. Rumours indicate the player is set to joining Los Blancos following James Rodriguez and Toni Kroos.

'Wilfried Bony is a fantastic professional. If a top Champions League club comes in, and puts the right offer on the table, then of course we will speak to him.'

Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone has not ruled out a move for Manchester United forward Javier Hernandez after claiming everything is possible until deadline day.
