Newcastle United renews pursuit of Marc Guehi as transfer rumors swirl around their possible acquisition
Summer Transfer Window 2025: Premiership Clubs in Pursuit of New Talent
The summer transfer window of 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting one, with several Premier League clubs making moves to strengthen their squads. Here's a roundup of the latest transfer rumours and negotiations involving Newcastle United, Crystal Palace, Manchester United, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur, and more.
Newcastle United
Newcastle, fresh off qualifying for the Champions League, are not resting on their laurels. They've already signed Anthony Elanga and Malick Thiaw, with Jacob Ramsey joining from Aston Villa for a fee of £43 million. However, Alexander Isak wants to leave, and the club is eyeing Brentford's Yoane Wissa, Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson, and Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi as potential replacements. Newcastle have made an offer of around €30m for Malick Thiaw, but initial bids have been rejected. They are also keeping tabs on Randal Kolo Muani, should Juventus fail to complete his transfer elsewhere. The Magpies' priorities include another forward, backup on the right flank, midfield reinforcement, and a central defender.
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace's captain Marc Guéhi is attracting interest from Newcastle and Liverpool, but both clubs are reluctant due to the £50m asking price. Meanwhile, their midfielder Adam Wharton is a "dream" target for Manchester United and Real Madrid, with the latter potentially bidding around €80m next year. Eberechi Eze, on the other hand, has chosen to move to Arsenal, with Spurs reportedly turning to Chelsea’s Christopher Nkunku as an alternative.
Manchester United
Manchester United are chasing Crystal Palace midfielder Adam Wharton but have failed in a move for Brighton’s Carlos Baleba. They continue to scout young talents, but no major confirmed incoming deals have been announced yet.
Everton
Everton's transfer activity remains unclear at this point in the window.
Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham have recently signed Mohammed Kudus from West Ham for £50 million. After missing out on Eberechi Eze, they are now turning their attention to Chelsea’s Christopher Nkunku, though Chelsea are reluctant to sell him to a Premier League rival. RB Leipzig also shows interest. Other Spurs targets reportedly include Monaco’s Maghnes Akliouche, Como’s Nico Paz, Southampton’s Tyler Dibling, and Aston Villa’s Morgan Rogers.
Additional Notes
Liverpool and Newcastle are competing for several targets, including Marc Guéhi and Alexander Isak. Internazionale are looking at Marseille striker Mason Greenwood as an alternative option. Chelsea have signed forwards Liam Delap and Joao Pedro, reducing Nicolas Jackson’s playing time and making a move likely.
Many negotiations remain fluid, especially regarding high-value players like Isak, Guéhi, Wharton, and prospective Newcastle signings. The transfer landscape is dynamic, with clubs strategically positioning themselves to secure the best talent. Keep an eye out for updates as the window progresses.
