A Gud deal in the pipeline for Spurs as PSG are linked with midfield man

We begin today’s Premier League transfer rumour apparent round-up with news of Tottenham and their

interest in Icelandic winger Albert Gudmundsso­n.

The wide man is currently on the books at Genoa and it is understood that Spurs are closely monitoring his progress ahead of a potential bid to lure him to north London.

According to Calciomerc­ato, several Premier League clubs are keen, but it is Tottenham ‘in particular’ who are ‘ready to bring’ him to England, with an offer of £25.6m potentiall­y in the pipeline.

The 3AM Verdict: Spurs have establishe­d connection­s with Genoa given recent deals for Radu Dragusin and Djed Spence.

It is not unimaginab­le that such associatio­ns could give them the advantage in any race for the winger’s signature.

Elsewhere, Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes has reportedly emerged as a priority target for French giants Paris SaintGerma­in this summer.

The Brazilian has been linked with the Ligue 1 outfit several times before but, speaking to Caught Offside, continenta­l football expert Jonathan Johnson says PSG’s hopes of prising him away from St James’ Park have not abated in the slightest.

The 3AM Verdict: This is a frightenin­g update for Newcastle fans, who will be desperate to keep hold of Guimaraes for as long as possible.

Finally, Football Insider reports that Everton could sell both Amadou Onana and Jarrad Branthwait­e in the summer transfer window. Considerin­g Everton’s need to ease some of their persistent financial woes, it is understood that the duo could be allowed to leave Goodison Park in the coming months, with ‘huge fees’ expected in the event of their respective departures.

The 3AM Verdict: The sad reality is that given the club’s current predicamen­t, sales may have to be made. In that respect, Onana and Branthwait­e are two very valuable assets and their exits may be a necessary evil.
