The summer transfer window is gathering pace, with a flurry of deals and rumours reported across the Premier League’s biggest clubs, according to the Standard’s transfer news live blog.
Arsenal are reportedly at the centre of a twist involving Julian Alvarez, while Manchester United have agreed a deal for Morgan Rogers. Chelsea, meanwhile, have made Adam Wharton a target and have also prioritised a move for Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix, the blog states. Liverpool have submitted a bid for an unnamed player.
“Arsenal, Man Utd, Chelsea, and Liverpool are all involved in transfer activity, per the Standard's live blog.”
The blog, updated on 23 June 2026, rounds up the latest news, rumours and gossip as clubs look to strengthen their squads ahead of the new season. With the World Cup also under way, the transfer market remains busy, with England set to face Ghana in a crucial group match later today.
Chelsea’s interest in Lacroix comes as the Blues look to bolster their defence, with the Frenchman attracting attention this summer. No further details have been provided on the other deals, but the blog continues to be updated throughout the window.
