Conte texts Diego Costa telling him to search for a new club!

   Diego Costa could be on the move now after being informed that he's out of Conte's plans for next season. According to Mirror the striker told reporters after Spain’s draw with Colombia on Wednesday evening:"I’m going to be honest, the other day, Conte sent me a message saying I am not in his plans for Chelsea, so I’ll have to find a way out"

  Costa has been of great value for the team, by leading them to win the Premier League, scoring 20 goals and providing 7 assists. He performed well the whole season, and is considered one of the reasons behind the team's success this season.

   The Spain International saw this coming, and was planning to join his former club Atletico Madrid after talks about Chelsea reuniting with Lukaku, but the transfer ban forced by FIFA on the Spanish giants prevents them from registering any player until January 2018. His comments were: "I love living in Madrid, but I have to think about my future."It’s complicated because I cannot go four or five months without playing. I have no preference for a league, I just want to play."

     The 28-year-old was linked with a move to the China Super League in the previous transfer window, but Chelsea failed to sign expensive Lukaku back then, so he stayed at Stamford Bridge. Offers from China are still on the table. Also AC Milan would like to sign him to strengthen their squad, the London Evening Standard reports. The native Brazilian is keen to find a club to join where he can get regular football, because this is the World Cup year, and he is supposed to be impressive so he can play for the national team. If he doesn't play, he's out.

Ousmane Dembele to Barcelona?

    Barcelona-based newspaper Mundo Deportivo claims the Catalan giants have set their sights on the French international Ousmane Dembele, after going cold on Gerard Deulofeu.
 
    The La Masia graduate may be out of Valverde's plans. The winger has had a great season with the Toffees, and even a better one with Italian giants AC Milan, which fueled talks about getting him back to Camp Nou, especially with the clause in his Everton move which allows Barca to rebuy him for a decent amount of money. But the drama that has happened recently in Borussia Dortmund, by sacking Thomas Tuchel despite winning the German Cup, created an atmosphere of uncertainty for the players, which made Barcelona renew their interest in the starlet who scored 10 goals and claimed 18 assists in 47 games.

   Ernesto Valverde is said to take advantage of the situation and sign the player. Barcelona are in need for players with Dembele's skills. With Coutinho doubting his ability to fit in Barcelona, and Turan leaving alongside with Rafinha and Dennis Suarez who are rumoured EPL targets, the deal looks likely to happen. If Barcelona propose an offer in these circumstances, it's hard for the 20-year-old to say NO to one of the biggest clubs in Europe. Meanwhile other reports claim even the player has showed interest in a Barcelona switch.
 
   Few hours ago, Samuel Umtiti, Dembele's France team-mate revealed to L'Equipe that the winger would thrive at the Camp Nou even jokingly offered to join him up. He added:"We get on really well. I know Barca are interested in his profile, but all the parties need to reach an agreement. Dembele would do well with us, with the quality he has, he's capable of adding a lot. If he comes, he will be welcome, but it still needs to be official to talk about that. If he comes, he can sleep at my house!"

   

Done deal!

Arsenal sign Schalke full-back Sead Kolasinac

   Arsenal have confirmed the signing of Schalke left-back Sead Kolasinac on a free transfer. The 23-year-old charmed europe's top clubs into signing him. Chelsea tried to sign him first but their bid was rejected back in January. Manchester City, Liverpool, Everton, Juventus, and AC Milan were keen on the defender. But when Arsene Wenger joined the race to sign the Bosnia and Herzegovina international in April, he made it hard for other teams to compete. Wenger was monitoring the starlet for quite some time before getting into business with him.

   

   Kolainac is a versatile player. He plays in different positions on the field. He started his career as a center back, and a defensive midfielder. But his talent was employed in other places on the left side of the pitch, and soon became a leftback. 

   Wenger has moved to strengthen at left-back after using Nacho Monreal and Kieran Gibbs there this season. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was even deployed to great effect at wing-back in the FA Cup final win over Chelsea. And Kolasinac offers a strong option in the position if Wenger decides to retain the 3-4-3 next season especially when Gibbs departs to newly promoted Newcastle United for €17 million as indicated by The Sun. In other news Daily Express claims the new arrival is now one of the top earners in the North London club.

  Arsenal seem to be going all in this season, after the club has allotted £100 million for transfers, and Arsene's declarations that Sanchez and Ozil are not going anywhere, in addition to the tremendous Mbappe bid, and now Kolasinac's wage!

The De Gea SAGA continues!

As Manchester United renew their interest in signing Rafael Varane to improve their defence, David De Gea is, again, linked with a move to Santiago Bernabeu. Although Keylor Navas has had a good season, and was impressive in some occasions, Real Madrid seem to prefer the Spaniard who is on the fan's top wishlist. That's why Florentino Perez is working hard to sign the goalkeeper. If the fans are happy he'll get a chance to continue as president of the club, after he failed to sign Neymar Da Silva when rivals Fc Barcelona snapped him, which made fans grow mad at him. The deal could be a tripple deal, for Manchester would take full advantage from selling one of their best players who is one of the best goalkeepers in the world. So James Rodriguez could be included in the deal. James had a tough time in Madrid and he wants more playing minutes ,but he faced fierce challenge from teammates to feature in the starting XI with Isco and Marco Asensio and others. He was benched for the most part of the season. Although his wife said that he's staying at Madrid and he hinted that while celebrating against Barcelona in the dramatic El Classico, but it seems that he has no place there. And with Morata linked with AC Milan, a move to Old Trafford is likely to happen if he doesn't sign with Liverpool who put 60 million euros to invest in  the attacking midfielder. The Colombian is for sure moving away after Ronaldo said:"I would tell James to stay but we have to respect his decision. He has his reasons". But to swap 2 key players with a goalkeeper would be insane, so maybe he's on his way to Anfield.

Reports say that Alvaro Morata agreed a 5 year-deal with italian giants AC Milan with a wage of 8 million euros per year. The transfer fee is said to be 50 million euros.Chelsea, Manchester united,and Arsenal were interested in the striker.
