Wolves

Wolves striker Duckens Nazon has reportedly signed for Belgian top flight side Sint-Truidense VV on a three-year-deal, according to reports.

Reports said it was 'fact' the 24-year-old had penned a deal at the Belgian First Division A.

Nazons signed for Wolves in January 2017 before going out on loan spells at Coventry City and Oldham Athletic in 2018 - but hasn't made a first team appearance.

Meanwhile Ben Marshall has reportedly been linked with a move to Millwall after impressing their on loan last season.

Millwall manager Neil Harris told News At Den that club had approached Wolves about signing the 27-year-old winger, who scored three goals in 14 appearances for The Lions.

Marshall signed for Wolves in January 2017 where he has made 18 appearances and scored two goals for the club.

Wolves are reportedly lining up a £4.4million loan for Benfica forward Raul Jimenez, according to reports.

The 27-year-old has played for the Primeira Liga outfit since 2015.

West Brom

Tony Pulis is reportedly set to raid Albion for winger Matt Phillips this summer.

Rumours surrounding Adama Traore, who has been linked with Chelsea, have apparently got Pulis looking for a replacement winger - and Phillips is a man he knows well.

The Scotland international had a mixed season as Albion were relegated from the Premier League, but did score in a late flourish against Newcastle.

Meanwhile, the bookies are listing Albion as outsiders to sign former Villa, Chelsea and England skipper, John Terry.

The veteran defender is without a club after departing Villa Park last month, with rumours swirling over a potential destination.

Bookies have listed the Baggies as 25/1 outsiders for his signature, with Derby 4/9 favourites.

Aston Villa

A return to Rangers could be an option for Aston Villa full-back, Alan Hutton this summer.

The Scot's contract is due to expire, and with the club in financial crisis he may well be forced to depart the Midlands.

Rangers are being reported as one of the potential landing spots for him should he leave, although it's thought he's keen on staying at B6.

Spurs are reportedly leading the race for Aston Villa's star man, Jack Grealish.

Villa seem destined to lose their home-grown talisman, with the club in need of funds - and reportedly want £40m for the playmaker.

Spurs are supposedly keen on him, although will likely play hard-ball with their valuation given Villa's financial plight.

Walsall

Dean Keates admits he pulled the plug on a potential transfer deal earlier this week.

The 39-year-old believed he was close to making his third addition of the summer on Tuesday, only for the player to then demand more money.

The Walsall boss will not be held to ransom this summer, and is working on other deals.
