Arsenal are plotting a swoop for Chelsea's Kai Havertz, reports The Guardian. The Gunners have opened talks for the 24-year-old forward as they look to beat Real Madrid to his signature. The Germany international is in contract with the Blues until 2025 but it is understood that he has notified the club that he wishes to depart Stamford Bridge this summer, and he could be set to make the switch to join their Premier League rivals at the Emirates.
West Ham have rejected Arsenal’s opening offer for Declan Rice, as per ESPN. It is understood that the Gunners presented a bid of £80m plus a further £10m in add-ons, which fell well short of the Hammer’s valuation of their captain. The North London club are still favourites to sign the England midfielder and they are expected to quickly return with an improved offer.
Inter Miami have been in prolonged talks with free agent Sergio Busquets, reports The Athletic. The 34-year-old could be set to join his former teammate Lionel Messi in South Florida. The MLS club are working to sign the midfielder on a contract below $1.65m a year, to avoid using one of their Designated Player spots, but with interest from other sides, the Herons might be pushed to making a more lucrative deal with the former Barcelona captain.
AC Milan are set to make an offer for Chelsea’s Ruben Loftus-Cheek, according to Football Insider. The Italian side are long-time admirers of the 27-year-old midfielder, and it is reported that they will submit an official proposal to the Blues later this summer. Progress for a deal has been halted as the Rossoneri focus on internal affairs following the departure of sporting director Paulo Maldini. The England international is also the subject of interest from several Premier League clubs, including Brentford.
Al Hilal are interested in Leeds United striker Rodrigo, Ekrem Konur reports. The 32-year-old striker could be the next Premier League star to move to Saudi Arabia. The Spain international is expected to depart Elland Road this summer with the Whites relegated to the Championship. This news comes after it was revealed that Inter Milan’s Romelu Lukakau was offered a £21m-a-year contract by the Riyadh-based club.
Paris Saint-Germain’s Presnel Kimpembe could be included in a swap deal for Lucas Hernandez, according to Rudy Galetti. The 27-year-old centre-back is tipped to depart the Parc des Princes this summer, and he could be set to join Bayern Munich after being included as part of an exchange with the Bavarian side’s central defender.
Brighton Hove Albion are growing confident over a deal with Conor Gallagher, as per 90min. The Seagulls are looking for midfield reinforcements, with Alexis Mac Allister joining Liverpool and Moises Caicedo set to leave the club this summer. The 23-year-old from Chelsea would be a welcome addition at the Amex, with the England international reportedly interested in working with Roberto de Zerbi. However, fellow Premier League sides Newcastle United and West Ham United are also interested in acquiring the midfielder.

Tips for job-seekers
- Do not submit your application through the Easy Apply button on LinkedIn. Employers receive between 600 and 800 replies for each job advert on the platform. If you are the right fit for a job, connect to a relevant person in the company on LinkedIn and send them a direct message.
- Make sure you are an exact fit for the job advertised. If you are an HR manager with five years’ experience in retail and the job requires a similar candidate with five years’ experience in consumer, you should apply. But if you have no experience in HR, do not apply for the job.

Salah in numbers
€39 million: Liverpool agreed a fee, including add-ons, in the region of €39m (nearly Dh176m) to sign Salah from Roma last year. The exchange rate at the time meant that cost the Reds £34.3m - a bargain given his performances since.
13: The 25-year-old player was not a complete stranger to the Premier League when he arrived at Liverpool this summer. However, during his previous stint at Chelsea, he made just 13 Premier League appearances, seven of which were off the bench, and scored only twice.
57: It was in the 57th minute of his Liverpool bow when Salah opened his account for the Reds in the 3-3 draw with Watford back in August. The Egyptian prodded the ball over the line from close range after latching onto Roberto Firmino's attempted lob.
7: Salah's best scoring streak of the season occurred between an FA Cup tie against West Brom on January 27 and a Premier League win over Newcastle on March 3. He scored for seven games running in all competitions and struck twice against Tottenham.
3: This season Salah became the first player in Premier League history to win the player of the month award three times during a term. He was voted as the division's best player in November, February and March.
40: Salah joined Roger Hunt and Ian Rush as the only players in Liverpool's history to have scored 40 times in a single season when he headed home against Bournemouth at Anfield earlier this month.
30: The goal against Bournemouth ensured the Egyptian achieved another milestone in becoming the first African player to score 30 times across one Premier League campaign.
8: As well as his fine form in England, Salah has also scored eight times in the tournament phase of this season's Champions League. Only Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo, with 15 to his credit, has found the net more often in the group stages and knockout rounds of Europe's premier club competition.
