Transfer round-up: Man United stance on Jack Grealish, Arsenal striker agrees new deal

The 2020 Premier League summer transfer window has entered its fourth week.

Over the past few days, there have been no new signings made by top-flight clubs, but a couple of players have moved out on temporary deals.

Manchester United attacker Tahith Chong will spend the 2020/21 campaign on loan with German side Werder Bremen.

Elsewhere, Newcastle United goalkeeper Freddie Woodman has returned to Swansea City for the second season running. He signed a fresh three year contract prior to the move.

Let’s have a look at the trending transfer stories at the moment.

Top Transfer Rumours:

Manchester United have been regularly linked with Aston Villa midfielder Jack Grealish. However, it appears that there is no certainty that the Red Devils will make an approach for his services. The club continue to prioritise the signing of Borussia Dortmund’s Jadon Sancho (The Athletic).

Meanwhile, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang looks set to end the speculation over his future by penning a long-term deal at Arsenal. He is due to sign a three-year contract worth £250,000-a-week. The Gunners captain has already dropped a hint by posting an hourglass emoji on his official Twitter account (Telegraph).
