Ibrahima Konate to Real Madrid transfer will be 'finalised in coming days'
Report in Spain claims Liverpool will be bidding farewell to France defender Ibrahima Konate in the coming days because Real Madrid are desperate to sign him Liverpool are gearing up for their first pre-season friendly, away to Preston North End, this afternoon with a number of touching tributes set to be paid to Diogo Jota. The game should also provide Reds fans with a first look of new signings Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez following an early summer spending spree to equip Arne Slot with a squad capable of retaining their Premier League title. But, as ever, the transfer rumour mill continues to spin and having spent £200m on new signings, talk surrounds players who may up being sold to balance the books. Here are some of the rumours doing the rounds - and some of them may even hold a grain of truth. Konate to Madrid Real Madrid have "reached a comprehensive agreement" with Ibrahima Konate, according to the Spanish outlet Fichajes, who add that they are set to pay £43m in a "deal that will be finalised in the coming days. The report adds that Konate "meets the qualities Xabi Alonso considers essential to compete at the highest level" and the defender, who has a year left on his deal, "is not considering any other alternative at this time." Guehi latest Two plus two was equalling five yesterday with suggestions that Marc Guehi is more likely to move away from Crystal Palace now they had been demoted to the Conference League because of a multiclub ownership issue. But there are also suggestions that Parma's Giovanni Leoni and Wolfsburg's Konstantinos Koulierakis are "being watched," according to a Substack blog by David Lynch. Starlet's deal Youngster Rio Ngumoha will sign his first professional contract with Liverpool following his 17th birthday next month, according to the Echo. The Reds pulled off a coup last summer when signing the highly-rated teenager from Chelsea and he made a senior debut in the FA Cup third round win over Accrington Stanley in January despite still being on a scholarship deal. He has been tipped to feature again under Slot during pre-season. Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.

Bryan Mbeumo offers fresh Man Utd hint as Ruben Amorim gets £10m boost
Manchester United remain keen on Bryan Mbeumo, who has continued to make it clear he wants the move, as player sales elsewhere benefit Ruben Amorim's budget this summer Manchester United's transfer business has firmly stalled with Matheus Cunha still their only major summer signing after he joined from Wolves for just over £60million earlier in the summer. Their attention is now on Bryan Mbeumo, who has excelled for Brentford, but they've seen two bids for the forward rejected and are yet to return with a third bid. The player himself wants the move but the Bees have not eased off their valuation. Ruben Amorim also has a number of players whom he needs to either back or more on. The likes of Marcus Rashford, Antony and Jadon Sancho all headed out on loan last term but are back at Old Trafford despite not appearing to be part of the plan. Alejandro Garnacho is another man who could be on his way out as the club look to bolster their funds with a No 9 thought to be on their shopping list. A dire Premier League underlined the need to change the look of the squad and here's the latest news coming out of Manchester. Mbeumo's latest hint Mbeumo has liked Leny Yoro's Instagram post after he confirmed his return to United training in what is the latest hint that he's keen on making the switch. The Cameroonian has made no secret of his desire to move on and take up the opportunity at the Premier League giants, who are trying to land more firepower in a bid to get them back up the table. His latest move on Instagram has appeared to underline his motivation to move on. He liked Yoro's post despite the pair having no prior involvement as team-mates. The Frenchman put up a post that read: "ReUnited" alongside an image of him going through his paces and Mbeumo was among those to like the post, along with current Old Trafford stars Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot. Club banking £10m plus from sell-on fees United's summer business is being aided by the millions they are receiving from sell-on fees they previously included in deals with Alvaro Carreras - who never played a game for the club - due to bank them more than £7m. Newcastle have just signed Antony Elanga from Nottingham Forest, which has cost the Magpies £55m. As per the clauses inserted in the deal that took Elanga from Manchester to Nottingham, United will land 15 percent of profit on any deal. Given he moved for £55m, United are said to have picked up around £6m of the fee, reports The Telegraph. Former United left back Carreras is set to land them even more cash as he is on the verge of leaving Benfica to join Real Madrid for around £43m after an impressive year in Lisbon. He moved to Portugal 12 months ago for around £7m, which means Benfica will pocket around £36m of profit. 20 percent of that - £7.2m - will go to United and further bolster their summer budget. Juve agree Sancho fee Juventus have agreed a £17.3m deal with United for Jadon Sancho as the player looks for a way out of Old Trafford following Chelsea's decision to send him back after his loan move. According to La Stampa the Red Devils were holding out for closer to £25m for the former Borussia Dortmund man, who cost them £70m back in 2021, but have decided to ease on their demands in a bid to get the flop out the door. Sancho refused to budge on his £350,000-a-week wage when Chelsea considered signing him, meaning they pulled out of a deal as they refused to pay that much. His salary could still prove a major sticking point when it comes to negotiations with Juventus.

Anthony Elanga adds blistering pace to an already rapid Newcastle forward line after signing for £55m... but which teams have the fastest and slowest attacks ahead of next season?
With Newcastle completing the £55million signing of Anthony Elanga from Nottingham Forest, Eddie Howe can now count upon one of the fastest front lines in the Premier League. Howe had been an admirer of the right-winger's pace and output, having scored six and assisted 11 in the Premier League last season. Elanga now joins another lightning fast winger in Anthony Gordon on Tyneside, with his fellow Sweden international Alexander Isak leading the line. Statistics from last season's Premier League have shown that Elanga and Gordon were players who spent the most time sprinting. Elanga was also clocked at a top speed of 22.77mph last season, the quickest achieved by an attacking player in the top flight. Mail Sport has taken a look at the quickest front-lines that could be fielded in the Premier League next season, using the top speeds last campaign, recorded by Stats Perform, and with as realistic line-ups as possible. Only clubs involved in the Premier League last season have been used in the countdown. Man City – 22.08mph Erling Haaland, Omar Marmoush, Jeremy Doku Pep Guardiola should able able to count upon the fastest forward line next season in the Premier League, should he call upon this trio. Man City goal machine Haaland was the fifth fastest attacking player in the top flight in 2024-25 by clocking 22.37mph. Combined with Doku and January signing Marmoush, their average top speed achieved was 22.08mph. Brentford - 22.07mph Bryan Mbeumo, Kevin Schade, Yoane Wissa The Bees are just behind Man City with an average top speed of 22.07mph. Whether that is the case when new campaign begins is another thing, with Bryan Mbuemo the second fastest attacking player in the top flight last season at 22.76mph, only behind Elanga. Schade and Wissa also ranked among the top 30 quickest forwards, with their combined top speed putting Brentford second on the list. Newcastle – 22.03mph Anthony Elanga, Anthony Gordon, Alexander Isak Factoring in the arrival of Elanga, Newcastle are propelled up to having the third fastest forward line. Elanga and Gordon were first and 10th fastest forwards last season, with Isak's surprisingly dragging down the average having only clocked a top speed of 21.19mph. Notably, a former Newcastle winger Yankuba Minteh was third quickest in 2024-25. The Magpies reluctance to let Minteh leave shows the importance of pace to their attack, with PSR ultimately leading to their decision to sell him to Brighton. Elanga now bumps Newcastle up the list, with their average top speed dropping to a still rapid 21.70mph with Harvey Barnes rather than the Swede. Arsenal – 22.02mph Gabriel Martinelli, Ethan Nwaneri, Kai Havertz The absence of Bukayo Saka is a slight caveat to Arsenal's front-line, but the Gunners star missed a sizeable chunk of last season due to injury. Saka had achieved a top speed of 22.59mph back in 2022, but failed to trouble the speed gun last season. With Havertz likely to feature up front as things stand, Mikel Arteta would turn to Martinelli and Nwaneri if he wanted to field his fastest attacking trio. Brighton - 21.90mph Yankuba Minteh, Kaoru Mitoma, Georginio Rutter The Seagulls would be able to call upon two of the fastest recognised wingers in the Premier League in Minteh and Mitoma. Minteh was ranked as the third quickest forward last season, while Mitoma was 23rd overall. Rutter is no slouch either, with the forward featuring in the top 50 last season. Tottenham – 21.76mph Wilson Odobert, Mathys Tel, Dominic Solanke Having called upon a rapid forward line at Brentford, Thomas Frank will inherit similar at Tottenham. Odobert achieved the fourth highest top speed of any attacking player in the Premier League last season, having been clocked at 22.59mph. Mathys Tel, who has joined permanently this summer, was Spurs next fastest wide-man ahead of Brennan Johnson and Son Heung-min. Dominic Solanke looks set to lead the line for Tottenham, with the average top speed of the three being 21.76mph. However, if Son were to replace Solanke in attack Tottenham's would possess the fastest attack, with the average rising to 22.09mph. Chelsea – 21.74mph Pedro Neto, Noni Madueke, Joao Pedro As ever with Chelsea, this would depend on the Blues transfer activity with Madueke linked with a move to London rivals Arsenal. For now Madueke feature in their fastest attacking line-up, alongside their quickest forward Pedro Neto and new arrival Joao Pedro. The latter is narrowly faster than Nicolas Jackson, who has also been linked with a move away. Man United – 21.67mph Rasmus Hojlund, Matheus Cunha, Amad Ruben Amorim's fastest frontline is very much subject to change, as the Red Devils chase attacking reinforcements and look to move on the likes of Marcus Rashford, Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho and Antony. If the Red Devils had to line-up today, a likely attack of Hojlund, Amad and summer signing Cunha would have a combined average top speed of 21.67mph. It would represent a drop from 22.06mph if Rashford and Garnacho were to support Hojlund. A line-up of Hojlund, Cunha and Mbuemo, however, would surpass that with the Brentford man pushing the figure to 22.12mph. This would send United to the top of the rankings. Liverpool – 21.64mph Luis Diaz, Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo The reigning Premier League champions are around mid-table in our list, with Arne Slot's side combining speed and skill. Luis Diaz was the Reds fastest attacking player in their title winning season, while Mo Salah continues to defy his advancing years, showing why the Reds handed him a new deal. Gakpo would complete Liverpool's fastest forward line as the focal point. Crystal Palace – 21.47mph Jean-Philippe Mateta, Ismaila Sarr, Eberechi Eze Mateta was the fastest of the FA Cup winners attacking players in the Premier League last season, clocking 21.91mph. Oliver Glasner would field Sarr and Eze alongside him next season if he was aiming to take on opponents for pace. The Eagles would, however, have to retain the services of Eze with Premier League rivals having admiring glances at their cup final hero. Bournemouth – 21.46mph Dango Ouattara, Justin Kluivert, Evanilson The Cherries are next on the list with a combination of Ouattara, Kluivert and Evanilson achieving an average top speed of 21.46mph. Antonie Semenyo was narrowly outside their quickest line-up and could easily be subbed in to maintain pace in the attack. West Ham - 21.38mph Mohammed Kudus, Michail Antonio, Jarrod Bowen Some serious questions over West Ham's quickest trio, with their fastest attacking threat Kudus linked with a move away from the club. Antonio's future at the club is doubtful with his contract having expired at the end of last season, while it is likely the broken leg sustained in his serious car crash in December will have reduced his top speed. Bowen would be the slowest but most essential of the trio in West Ham's attack. Brazilian winger Luis Guilherme and Niclas Fullkrug are the Hammers next fastest attackers, with the latter having achieved a surprising 21.28mph top speed last season. Aston Villa – 21.31mph Donyell Malen, Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins Unai Emery's side are perhaps surprisingly low on the list, given their ability on the counter attack. With Marcus Rashford having departed following his loan move in the second half of last season, Malen was narrowly the fastest attacking player ahead of Rogers. Watkins would lead the line, but his top speed last season was down at 20.90mph. Everton – 21.23mph Beto, Iliman Ndiaye, Jack Harrison Putting together an Everton front three is a challenge in itself, with Dominic Calvert-Lewis and Armando Broja among recent confirmed departures from the club. Beto and Iliman Ndiaye are among the threadbare attacking options that remain as Everton prepare for their first season at their new stadium. With reports linking Jack Harrison back to the club for another potential loan spell, the winger has been included in our line-up. Beto is the fastest player remaining in what has become a depleted Everton forward line Wolves – 21.03mph Rodrigo Gomes, Jorgen Strand Larsen, Hwang Hee-Chan Wolves are among the lower ranked teams in our countdown, with Strand Larsen their central striker. He would be supported by Gomes and Hwang in Vítor Pereira's attack. Fulham – 21.02mph Adama Traore, Ryan Sessegnon, Rodrigo Muniz Despite having the famed pace of Traore in their ranks, Fulham are second bottom of our standings. The rapid winger was the Cottagers fastest attacker last season 21.86mph. Sessegnon and Muniz complete the top three, but the latter's top speed last year was recorded at 20.34mph. Fulham are near the bottom of the standings, despite boasting speedster Adama Traore Chris Wood is expected to lead the line for Forest, but they would be hurt by Elanga's exit Nottingham Forest – 20.58mph Jota Silva, Chris Wood, Callum Hudson-Odoi The loss of Elanga has hit Nottingham Forest hard, according to last year's sprint stats. Nuno Espirito Santo's side were famed for their counter attacking prowess last season, but it would be potentially be dulled after Elanga moved to Newcastle. Jota Silva would be their quickest star from last season remaining, with Chris Wood still expected to lead the line.
