In other transfer news, Aston Villa are showing interest in Chelsea's 28-year-old English defender Tosin Adarabioyo. This comes as a potential move to replace Ezri Konsa, following Arsenal's deal for the England international. Benfica have also reportedly contacted Chelsea regarding Adarabioyo.
Elsewhere, Barcelona are monitoring Harry Kane's contract talks with Bayern Munich, as the 33-year-old England striker has entered the final year of his current deal. Sunderland could potentially break their transfer record by activating the 60m euros (£51m) release clause for Sporting's 25-year-old Mozambique winger Geny Catamo.
