    Chelsea have agreed a transfer fee with Southampton for Romeo Lavia as the 19-year-old is now set to move to Stamford Bridge. 

    According to Fabrizio Romano, the youngster will cost the West London club £53m plus £5m in add-ons. Lavia will undergo his medical tests this week after saying yes to the move on Monday.

    Romano also states that the Southampton star is expected to be unveiled this week ahead of Chelsea’s match with West Ham on Sunday.

    This follows Chelsea confirming the big-money signing of Moises Caicedo on Monday and both deals are a big blow to Liverpool, who tried to sign both players.

    The London club were always the favourites for the Ecuador star but Lavia was a player many people expected to move to Anfield this summer. The Merseyside club have ultimately made a mess of the situation and will now have to look elsewhere.

    Chelsea are also looking to finalise a deal for Crystal Palace’s Micheal Olise as the Blues continue to build a very impressive squad of youngsters.

    Paris Saint-Germain star Kylian Mbappe would be in line for a huge signing-on bonus once he completes a transfer to Real Madrid as expected in 2024.

    The France international is a world class talent attracting plenty of interest at the moment as he’s in the final year of his PSG contract, with Real Madrid still widely expected to be his next destination, according to Jonathan Johnson in his exclusive CaughtOffside column.

    Mbappe has also been linked with Liverpool, but Johnson has poured cold water on that story, pointing out just how much of a massive fee the 24-year-old is in line to receive from Real once he finalises his move to the Bernabeu.

    “There have been surprise reports of Liverpool possibly doing a loan deal for Kylian Mbappe, while it’s also been suggested that other clubs could try similar,” Johnson said.

    “However, I do not think that any sort of loan deal for Mbappe is realistic this summer. Although it would solve the French superstar’s playing time issues, it would put PSG in an extremely precarious position regarding a potential fee before his contract expires.

    “The only way that I could see such a possibility even being entertained is if there was an obligation to buy him before next summer which makes little to no sense for Liverpool in this potential scenario.

    “In any case, the belief in Paris remains the same and that is that Mbappe and Real Madrid have an agreement for the summer of 2024 in a deal with a signing on fee as high as €160m.

    “Jurgen Klopp recently laughed off Mbappe to Liverpool speculation and I can see why – there are just too many moving parts. As fellow columnist Neil Jones has written here, much of the Mbappe to Liverpool talk down the years has been mainly fan-led, without any real substance to it beyond that.”

    While losing Mbappe will be a big blow for PSG, it seems that work is already under way to replace him, with Johnson claiming that both Goncalo Ramos and Ousmane Dembele are looking set to sign for the Ligue 1 giants.

  • Record fee required if Tottenham want to go Dutch with manager who turned down Leeds

    Record fee required if Tottenham want to go Dutch with manager who turned down Leeds

    As soon as Antonio Conte launched into his epic tirade against Tottenham Hotspur’s players and the club in general, the Italian was always going to be relieved of his duties, and as the north Londoners consider their options for his replacement, a surprise name has come into contention.

    Club chairman, Daniel Levy, appears to be skating on thin ice with supporters again, as yet another manager tries, and fails, to awaken this sleeping Premier League giant.

    Perhaps, when all is said and done, Conte was never really the right fit for the position, but then neither was Nuno Espirito Santo et al.

    Understanding exactly what style of football Levy wants to see played at White Hart Lane arguably will dictate the type of manager that is eventually appointed.

    According to the De Telegraaf, Feyenoord’s Arne Slot has now entered the conversation but it will, apparently, take a record fee to prise him from the Dutch giants.

    The outlet note that Slot has a contract with the Eredivisie side until 2025, with a clause that allows him to leave earlier – but that will only come into effect in the summer of 2024.

    Feyenoord currently sit in pole position in the Dutch top-flight, eight points ahead of nearest rivals, Ajax, and having only lost one game all season, per Sky Sports.

    Though Slot is definitely on the list of ‘possibles’ for Levy, it’s noted that his club turned down a €5m offer from Leeds United to have him replace Jesse Marsch earlier in the season.

    To that end, Levy will know he’ll need to put his hand in his pocket before contract remuneration for the manager himself is even discussed.
