Wolves

Reports claim that Wolves are keen on signing Celta Vigo midfielder, Stanislav Lobotka.

The Slovakian midfielder has performed well in La Liga since joining from Nordsjaelland, and is reportedly wanted by a number of top clubs in Europe.

It's thought that Celta Vigo would accept a bid of around £26m for his services, with PSG, Leicester, Watford and Bournemouth also keen.

Elsewhere, reports claim that Dominic Iorfa could be set to sign a pre-contract agreement with Celtic this month.

The 23-year-old has seen his career at Molineux stall in recent seasons, and could leave for nothing this summer with his contract set to run out.

Reports suggest that a move north of the border could be on for the defender, who is able to play centre-back and right-back.

West Brom

The Baggies are reportedly monitoring Ipswich Town defender, Jonas Knudsen.

The Dane is out of contract this summer and is expected to consider his options despite a new deal being offered by Paul Lambert.

Middlesbrough and Stoke, along with clubs from his native Denmark have also been linked with moves for the left-sided full-back.

Reports suggest that West Brom is Tyrone Mings' most likely destination this month.

The Baggies are interested in a loan move for the Bournemouth defender, with Villa also reportedly keen on a move for the 25-year-old.

Mings has so far struggled to make his way into the first-team plans at Bournemouth - with Eddie Howe likely to allow him to depart on-loan.

Aston Villa

Reports online claim that Jordan Mutch is set to train with Aston Villa this month.

The midfielder has previously featured for Birmingham City and Cardiff, but is now seeking a new club after departing Crystal Palace.

Reports suggest that Villa could be a destination for the midfielder, who is still just 27 years of age.

Meanwhile, Villa are once again being linked with an audacious move for former defender, Gary Cahill.

The Chelsea defender is free to depart Stamford Bridge after falling out of favour, and has seen a move to Fulham fall through.

That, along with John Terry's involvement at B6, has resulted in suggestions that the former Villan could head back to the Second City.

Walsall

No fresh Walsall rumours today.
